The game starts with a cutscene where Jason Brody (protagonist) and his friends/family are vacationing in Bangkok. Later, they land on a fictional island in the Pacific while skydiving.

We’ve got all our racing game fans with NFS Most Wanted, as this is one of the best racing games ever. This ninth franchise installment completely shocked the gaming community with its stunning visuals, gameplay, and storyline.

The storyline of this game takes place in a fictional city named Rockport, where your character is earning a reputation by winning races and later is challenged by one of the best racers in Rockport City named Razor.

Razor is an egoistic racer who believes that nobody can beat him. Everything was going the right way while racing with Razor as you’ll be winning, but later you realize that something is wrong with your ride and Razor is behind it all.

You end up losing the race and your ride as well. Later, the cops show up and your character is arrested as racing is prohibited in Rockport City.

The Denylist is a list of the best racers in Rockport City who’re wanted by the police. Now your task is to beat all the blocklist racers and Razor is on top. To beat Razor and get your ride back, you must defeat every racer on the list.

The gameplay is responsive, and the car handling feels much more alive compared to the previous titles. Players can upgrade their cars and purchase new ones as they progress on the blocklist.

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare or COD 4: MW is one of the most incredible entries in the Call of Duty franchise due to its gameplay, storyline, and graphics.

Wei Shen is a martial artist who uses numerous combos to take down his enemies. Players can also attend a Kung Fu school where Wei can perfect his moves and learn some new techniques as well. I personally prefer hand-to-hand combat overshooting in this game.

Players can also find tons of clothing stores spread across the map where they can customize Wei’s outfit and buy some threads for him as well. It feels like the developers took their jobs seriously while developing this game. Make sure to try out this game if you haven’t yet.
