Windows Central's take
I definitely want to check out Need for Speed: Unbound, a game that by all accounts is great, but it launched at the very end of the year and got overlooked by many. Outside of that, while it's not for me, I'm sure many will be happy about the arrival of Bramble: The Mountain King.
