13 Most Epic Video Game Moments of 2017
Incredible games and excellent moments were all around us in what was the best year for gaming in quite some time. Beloved franchises took exciting new turns, brilliant games delivered unique moments, and surprise hits caught us off guard in the best ways possible!
As a terrific year in gaming closes, join us in remembering the epic moments that made 2017 an awesome year for everyone. But be warned, there are major spoilers ahead for the biggest games of the year, so come back later if you’re not ready, and for everyone else, let’s go down the list of the most epic gaming moments of 2017!
Horizon Zero Dawn does a lot of things well, but its combination of stealth and excellent action is where it really shines. The beginning of the game has you fighting smaller robot-dinos that are just barely bigger than Aloy, but it’s not long before she’s forced to fight foes two-to-three times her height. Yet the true accomplishment comes from her slowly chipping away on enemies that are as tall as a house. It’s gratifying to watch these robot fiends slowly come undone from her precise attacks. You almost start to feel bad for them. And when that huge creature finally has no more fight to give and comes comes crashing down to the ground, it’s a satisfying sense of accomplishment that you can’t wait to feel over and over again. – Mark Medina, Associate Features Producer
The Last Jedi: Explaining THAT Leia Scene
SPOILERS are discussed ahead for Star Wars: The Last Jedi!
Don't read this if you haven't seen the movie! Bookmark this page and come back and check it out after you do!
The new Star Wars movies have altered a lot of what fans thought they knew about the post-Return of the Jedi saga, but one thing has remained constant. In both the new universe and the Legends universe, Leia has chosen to focus on politics, helping to rebuild the Republic rather than follow in her brother's footsteps and embrace her Jedi potential.
That's why it was such a surprise to see Leia tap into her latent abilities in The Last Jedi, cheating what seemed to be certain death in the cold vacuum of space and flying her way back to her battered ship.
World of Tanks Update 1.0 Will Be a “True Game Changer”
Wargaming has announced a major new update for World of Tanks will be arriving in March 2018: Update 1.0. Update 1.0 will bring with it a complete visual makeover, powered by an advanced, in-house graphics engine.
Over 25 World of Tanks maps are being redesigned for this update with improvements to water, vegetation, skies, terrain, and lighting. Wargaming is promising the increased effects quality and fidelity will have no adverse effects on the game’s overall performance.
“Update 1.0 is a true game changer,” said World of Tanks development director Milos Jerabek. “Though the spirit of the game remains the same, the introduction of the new graphics engine leads to a far greater boost in image fidelity than a simple resolution increase. It’s a staggering difference from the game as you know it, and we can’t wait for players to get hands-on with it.”

SHIELD: Nick Blood on Fitz and Hunter’s Star Wars Scene
Warning: Spoilers for the Marvel's Agents of SHIELD episode "Rewind" follow...
Well, there you have it. Tonight's episode of Agents of SHIELD, "Rewind," showed us all how Fitz froze himself far into the future in order to catch up with his colleagues. After some crafty concocting, a prison break, a prison re-entry, and a tender "I love you"/"I know" send off, Lance Hunter helped Fitz fight his way back into Jemma's arms.
I briefly chatted with actor Nick Blood about this fun return stint as Lance Hunter, why his character works so well when paired with Fitz, and whether or not he's set to return.
IGN: First thing I was to ask about is that Empire Strikes Back line. Nicely timed with the release of Last Jedi, I must say. Was that in the script or improvised?
Game Scoop’s Favorite Games of 2017
The Division Dev on Possibility of Sequel
Ubisoft and developer Massive Entertainment have supported The Division well after its launch in March 2016, and speaking to IGN, Massive’s Managing Director David Polfeldt indicated the developer fully plans on continuing to so long as players remain invested in the game. But that doesn’t mean successive titles like a sequel or other offshoots are out of the question.
Though no official announcements of a “The Division 2” have been made, and Massive's focus is squarely on The Division and the studio's upcoming Avatar game, Polfeldt indicated the studio does want to tell stories beyond the ones created from the first game.
