Horizon Dawn (best game of 2016?)

Just when you thought to yourself, "Why aren't there any cavemen vs robot dinosaur titles?" Guerilla Games comes along and drops exactly this, and something drastically different compared to what their known for! At the E3 Sony Conference, their new IP is introduced, and this is Horizon: Zero Dawn.

As a Third Person Action RPG Open World game, Horizon is a far cry from Killzone - Guerilla's flagship series - in that the latter featured mankind using technology to master themselves and others, and the former is based in a setting where mankind is not in sync with technology and instead masters of themselves.

In a the ruins of a forgotten civilization, highly advanced machines hunt the remants of humanity who have now regressed to tribal society, and the game centers itself on the adventure of the outcast Aloy, as she follows her destiny of unraveling the mysterious narrative of Horizon: Zero Dawn.

Beset by a steel menagerie, Aloy must use the gifts natural to humans by taking advantage of stealth, cunning, agility, and resourcefulness to survive the hordes of these mechanical saurian-like creatures. By careful planning, each encounter becomes a hunt, where players can exploit the weakness of these machines - it helps that humanity has developed weapons and tools that combine both natural materials with mechanical parts, as Aloy will need all the help she can get in her solitude journey of man versus machine.

Good post, but without knowing what is coming in 2016 this is a little premature (like what my wife says about me).  It was certainly the game that jumped out at me from the Sony Brief and made me think that I would get a PS4 for it.  Certainly one to keep an eye on.

This is the only game that jumped out at me from the PS press conference.
Just to add xbox have only announced half there games the rest come at gamescom why playstation is skipping it this year......
