PC gaming finds itself in an interesting position with the current generation well under way. The PS4 and Xbox One are effectively computers, built in much the same way as a low-end PC rig would be. As such, there's very little differentiating the three platforms on the face of it, although gamers can construct their own PCs to outperform both consoles. With multiplatform titles (and even previously console-exclusive titles) now finding their way to the PC in droves, and the standard deluge of PC exclusives, one could certainly argue that the PC was the only gaming machine you really needed this year. Here are the Best PC Games of 2014.
The Nominees Are:
Hearthstone: Heroes of WarCraft
And the Winner is...
Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft
You've probably at least heard of some popular trading card games, such as Magic the Gathering, Pokemon, or Yu-Gi-Oh. But between the cost of acquiring cards and the time spent learning complex rules, many people decide not to scale the entry barrier. Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft does a great job of knocking that wall down, by offering a simpler, easy to understand ruleset and letting all prospective players enjoy the game free of charge. And yet those who want to invest more time into the game will find a deep, ever-evolving metagame and some heated battles with newfound rivals. Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft duels its way to the Best PC Game of 2014 Award.
