‘Okami HD’
Okami is widely considered to be one of the best games ever made, and for good reason. This unique Zelda-like adventure title plunges you into a gorgeous cel-shaded world based on feudal Japan, complete with creatures and deities straight out of Japanese mythology. You control a mystical wolf named Shiranui — a manifestation of the sun goddess Amaterasu — who commands a wide array of magical weapons and abilities which you will use to rid the land of an ancient darkness that has once again taken root.
Along the way, you meet a large cast of endearing and whimsical characters and increasingly powerful monsters as you level up your abilities. Okami HD is a fairly long game, too, giving you plenty to chew on, and at just $17 from Amazon, you’re getting a lot for your money. If you’ve never experienced this classic, or if you just want to have another go-around in widescreen HD, then now’s your chance.

‘Fallout 4’
Fallout is one of the longest-running franchises around, but it still somehow manages to exceed our expectations with each new release. Fallout 4 is no exception, and its massive open world gives you total freedom to fight and scavenge your way across a post-apocalyptic wasteland in an alternative universe where civilization has been devastated by a worldwide nuclear war.
You emerge as the lone survivor of Vault 111, and must employ whatever means necessary in order to survive and thrive in the radioactive ruins of the U.S. Customize your character, join factions, level your skills, and even build your own base in Bethesda’s epic follow-up to 2008’s Fallout 3. Fallout 4 offers a true next-gen experience, and can be yours for $20 from Walmart. A VR version of Fallout 4 has also been recently released for those who really want to dive in.

‘Doom’
The new Doom is a game that few people saw coming. Id Software and Bethesda had a big task ahead of them when they announced a reboot of the decades-old franchise that defined an entire genre. Expectations soared and, thankfully, Doom met and even exceeded hopes when it dropped last year to massive sales and universal critical acclaim.
While 2004’s Doom 3 was an awesome first-person shooter, its slower gameplay and survival-horror elements strayed a bit from the classic Doom formula. Id’s new Doom takes the franchise right back to its roots, throwing a stranded space marine — you, the player — into a whirling maelstrom of slaughter and chaos as you battle alone against the armies of hell. You can enjoy the next-gen graphics and heart-pounding FPS action of Doom for $20 from Walmart. If you have a PSVR headset, you can also grab the new Doom VFR edition for $20 from Amazon.

‘InFamous: Second Son’
There are a lot of open-world games out there (not surprising, given the power of current hardware), but few of them give you as much freedom as InFamous: Second Son does. One of the first big PS4 exclusives and the third entry in the InFamous series, Second Son puts you in control of a superhuman and lets you run wild across a beautiful world based on Seattle.
The game is especially notable for its complete freedom of movement. Not only can you explore the streets, but you can leap around, climb buildings, and more using your godlike abilities and that DualShock PS4 controller. You’ll also duke it out with other superhumans, stealing their powers to enhance your own. Now, you can leap into the open world of InFamous: Second Son for just $18 from Walmart.

‘Resident Evil: Revelations 2’
“Barry? Where’s Barry?” Here he is, finally: After a curious absence, our favorite revolver-toting bearded S.T.A.R.S. operative is back in the saddle. No Jill sandwiches this time around, however, as Claire Redfield is the one who joins Barry as the other playable protagonist in Resident Evil: Revelations 2. This follow-up to the first highly successful Revelations game continues the series’ slow return to its true survival-horror roots, taking our heroes into a terrifying abandoned prison.
You fight to survive against a horrifying new enemy known as the “Afflicted” — think zombies, but faster and smarter — as you explore, scavenge, and solve puzzles in true Resident Evil fashion. The episodic plot has you playing as both Barry and Claire, switching between characters as their intertwining stories play out. Resident Evil: Revelations 2 is available for $20 from Walmart.

‘Rime’
Equal parts Myst and Ico, but with a style all its own, Rime is a real bundle of joy for gamers who love to explore. You take control of a young boy who is lost in an ancient ruin and must solve puzzles (stop me if this all sounds a bit familiar) in order to unlock the mystery of the deserted island on which you are stranded.
Fans of titles like Ico and The Last Guardian will definitely be in familiar waters here — and that is a good thing. Along with its own distinct art direction and soundtrack, Rime features unique puzzles that must be solved by using things like sound, light, and shadows. If you could use a break from shoot-em-up games and want a more laid-back, exploration-focused experience to sink your teeth into, then grab Rime from Amazon for $20.
