The Xbox One had a rough start, positioned as an all-in-one media solution with mandatory Kinect to a lack of compelling exclusives over long stretches. Nevertheless, there have been some great games, with new titles in the Halo, Forza and Gears franchises, a worthwhile compilation celebrating Rare, and much more.
Third-party developers also had plenty to offer during its generation, resulting in some of the best games ever. Open-world, co-op, action-adventure, side-scrolling platform shooters, and more are available.
