10. Battlefield Hardline

Battlefield Hardline Gameplay

You have various ways to pursue those criminals and arrest them. The most fun factors about this game is that it’s different than every other Battlefield game.

9. Driver: San Francisco

In Driver: San Francisco you play as an undercover cop, John Tanner, who was in a car crash early in the game.

This car crash gives him an ability known as, “shifting” this newfound ability lets you take control of other driving citizens for a brief amount of time.

You can bend the rules of driving into your favor. Tanner is tracking down Charles Jericho, a jail-broken criminal who  put Tanner in a coma in the beginning of the game, unintentionally giving Tanner his “shifting” ability.

Using the “shifting” ability is very fun, but hard to get the hang of. Once you understand it, you can use it to your advantage to do things like possess a vehicle and use it to block your opponents therefore letting you get ahead of them.

Drive as if you were in the game yourself, but with NO consequences.

Tanner and his friend Tobias Jones watch each other’s back.
