What a weak year for strategy games. The usual big names like StarCraft, Civilization, and others are missing this year. There were a few great games, but they were so spread out I started to wonder if the genre died.
Battletech
Battletech wasn’t just the best PC game this year but the best strategy. It was a breath of fresh air in a genre that usually gets over-saturated with shovelware through the year. It hit all the marks that hardcore fans wanted and looked good doing it.
