*It’s time to get nautical. The new Tropico 5 add-on Waterborne for PC adds water based game mechanics for the first time in the series and introduces a brand new campaign with 6 challenging missions. Harness the vast potential of the sea by constructing waterborne structures around your island. Build brand new off-shore alternatives to defense, food, energy, entertainment and even housing. Construct tidal power plants as an eco-friendly alternative to nuclear power, build gorgeous floating apartments and launch military submarines to bolster your naval forces.
The Waterborne expansion for Tropico 5 comes with a slew of new gameplay features and enhancements: such as water traffic, larger coastal areas and new events to keep even the most seasoned island rulers on their toes.
2014 in Gaming in Under Two Minutes
YouTube user Malcolm Klock compiled a stellar look at this year in gaming.
2014 has been an intense time for games. It has been a year of big delays, messy launches, and non-stop controversy. It has also been a year in which both AAA and indie developers produced innumerable games that overflowed with both artistry and ambition. This is a celebration of their work, and hopefully a re-affirmation that video games are something worth believing in.
These are by no means the only great games from 2014. Your favorite game isn't missing because I don't think it is worthy... more likely it just didn't edit together well with the rest or had to go to keep it under 2 minutes. I also attempted to give some screen time to overachieving indies that deserve the attention, rather than trying to cram in every major release.
A full list of the games shown in order of appearance is on the video page.
If you wanted to catch up on last weekend's PlayStation Experience event, all of the panels are available over on the PS Blog.
