2019 has been a great year for games, as it seems like everyone has gotten something that they enjoy, no matter the genre. At Evil Controllers, we play a LOT of games, and we’ve cobbled together a list of what we feel are the best games of the year, and why.
Here we go:
Resident Evil 2 Remake- I’m a huge fan of the original Resident Evil 2 on PlayStation, but I think I love the new game even more. It’s simply stunning graphically, and the gameplay is less stiff, bringing a sense of flow that just wasn’t there in the original. Cobbling in the great story with thrilling frights make this an absolute must-play.
Luigi’s Mansion 3- It’s been a while since we’ve seen the portly plumber’s brother in a haunted mansion style game, but Nintendo has knocked it out of the park here. The game is available for the Nintendo Switch and is oozing with charm. Hunting ghosts

An exclusive multiplayer mode in the new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare game will be exclusive for PS4 for nearly a year.
The Survival Mode will be exclusive to the console until October 1st, 2020, as it falls under the guise of the Spec Ops mode that can be played in either solo mode or co-op. The exclusivity is a big get for the PlayStation brand, and the company was sure to tease the mode during their State of Play event on September 24th.
Call of Duty is hotly anticipated, and players will be wise to get their hands on a good controller in order to have the edge when it comes to multiplayer play. At Evil Controllers we have custom controllers that can be completely customized. You can add in shift paddles, adjustable thumbstick tension, tactile D-pads, tactile triggers, mods, custom colors, and more. Our mods start at just $69.95 and go up from there.
There have been multiple beta tests that have been conducted for the game over

The beta for the highly anticipated Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is bringing in some new modes this weekend, including a 64 person multiplayer mode that harkens back to the classic days of Battlefield on the PC.
The new mode is called Ground War mode and will feature 32 on 32 combat, including the ability to use vehicles to eliminate the other team. The map for the beta mode will be Karst River Quarry and will resemble the popular Modern Warfare 2 Map “Quarry”. This map will grow and allow players to ride in APCs and other vehicles, blasting away as you try to take down your foes.
The beta for this round will go live on September 19th at 10am PST for those who preorder the game. If you’re not set on preordering, you can get in on the action beginning on September 21st.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is a fresh game that shares an identical name to the 2007 version of the game that took the world by storm. This version will feature

The former CEO of eSports group OpTic Gaming Hecz has announced that he’s leaving the company and joining the eSports group NRG as the company’s Co-CEO.
The move was announced in a September 15th YouTube video where Hecz posted his journey through working with OpTic and sharing what his future moves will be. This is the first team change for Hecz, whose real name is Hector Rodriguez. He had previously been with OpTic since 2007, but the group was purchased by Immortals Gaming Club, and Hecz thought it was time to move on.
He reportedly turned down an offer by OpTic to remain in his current role.
In the video Hecz says, “No matter what, just understand that I will continue to do everything in my power to try to repay you. By bringing you a story, keeping you excited, by continuing to share the moments that we have all grown to share in the last decade of work.”
It’s currently not known what role Hecz will have at NRG, but we can assume that he’ll be working in

During this past weekend Call of Duty: Modern Warfare developers Infinity Ward held their latest beta test, allowing users to test out the hotly anticipated 2v2 mode.
The new mode is one of the most anticipated features of the upcoming game, which launches on October 25th across PS4, Xbox One, and PC. The mode favors quick play, but does require players to adjust their strategy a bit from the typical multiplayer modes.
One thing that we’re anticipating is a lot of fast action, which I’ve personally experienced during my play sessions. Even though there are still a few things to be ironed out, the game looks sharp and plays smoothly on PS4. Gunfight (the name of the new mode), is something else, and I’d say I felt more pressure and “in the moment” than I even did in Black Ops 4’s battle royale mode.
Of course, we’re anticipating the different mods that we’ll be able to set up for use with our Evil Controllers. We may be a bit biased, but I think that we have the best

Infinity Ward’s new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare was shown off a bit more on July 11th, showcasing a new Gunfight Mode that’s meant for busy players looking for a fast bit of action.
The mode is 2-on-2 action and is one of 20 game modes that have been announced for the title. The game has 40-second rounds and urges players to be wise about their strategy, whereas most games have over-the-top action for rounds. There is no health regeneration, and the first squad that racks up six victories takes the entire match.
Other differences from popular Call of Duty modes include customizable load-outs, with weapons pre-determined before you start your round. The final number of maps for Gunfight Mode isn’t set in stone, but Infinity Ward has indicated that they’re looking at around three maps.
We watched some of the streams today, and while it’s definitely Call of Duty, there is a whole element that feels different, as you have to be very

The most anticipated game of the year; Modern Warfare 3 is the sequel to the MW2, widely considered to be the best first person shooting game of this generation. In a sense, the first time I picked up a Ps3 controller last year to play MW2 (I know I am still new to the COD series), I originally hated the game. I found it so hard to adjust from Counter Strike and Halo games where your enemies were so easily visible and the guns were so straightforward. The beauty of the love for Call of Duty though, is that it grows on you. After many months later, I currently dominate and thats being humble.
However, Black Ops is a much slower paced game than its predecessor MW2, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 looks to combine the best of both worlds. The faced paced gameplay of MW2 with the all the glorious customization that we have grown to love from Black Ops. With a revamped graphics engine and a story line that is essentially World War 3, MW3 looks breathtakingly

Well folks, its finally double points weekend again on Ps3 and for many of us, that means we will most likely be spending our last day on earth inside pwning noobs. Really with the impending rapture ahead of us this brings a whole new light to the phrase, Its not the end of the world! I really hope its not the end, I am still too young to die. However, after seeing what might have been the most absurd call of duty kill of all time last night from my friend Jon, I could at least rest easy. To describe what occurred, basically this guy was running up the stairs on Array, Jon fired 4 or 5 bullets out of his Aug and then switched to his python putting one bullet directly between this poor unsuspecting chumps eyes. It wasnt a difficult kill, it was just masterfully executed and equally humiliating to watch.
I wont be surprised if this weekend yields complete insanity, as everyone will be struggling to make up for that lost time due to the PlayStation

The next installment in the Call of Duty series seems to be getting closer.
So looks like things are picking up for Activision and Infinity Ward, as they released a statement (you can find it here on Kotaku) that the next installment in the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare series will be pushing the envelope when it comes to what people expect. So knowing the series, they're going to go beyond the Michael Bay-like explosions and second-by-second action-filled storyline events, which is awesome.
The storyline is what I'm really fixated on. A lot of people call the
