The first was Batman: A Telltale Game. Telltale games are interactive stories, kind of the modern version of choose your own adventure books. I very much enjoyed the Tales of the Borderlands series, and had heard good things about their take on Batman. As the Steam Summer Sale had the entire series (the games are sold like episodes of a TV series) for a good price, I picked it up and played through it. It had some interesting concepts, but it pulled its reveal too soon and the end was ... anticlimactic. I very much liked the Batmobile even though you never get to control it, which is a good thing as most of the other controls tended to bother me. Shift-E and Shift-Q came up too frequently, and I could enter the correct button and still watch as Batman got pummeled (which happened all too often). It also earned its M rating, which I could have done without. Still it was better than Batman V Superman.
The second was Uncharted 4: A Thief's End. I have always loved the Uncharted series and this was a fitting end to the adventures of Nathan Drake. These games play like you have stepped into the middle of an action movie. While this game played around a bit more with open environments, most of it was non-stop thrills, laughs, action, and drama. While it works as a standalone, the beautifully directed interactions between characters is stronger if you have followed their stories throughout the games. There are a couple of frustrating gun fights, there is a surprising lack of supernatural elements, and I still don't like the lack of an in-game treasure finder, but I otherwise consider this game to be a "must-play" for any action-adventure fan.
