Those are Forza Motorsport 6, Gears of War: Ultimate Edition, Call of Duty: Black Ops III, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six and Mortal Kombat X.
For Stage 2 rules have slightly changed, voters can vote a number of times depending on the size of the current poll, as different years had different about of releases and hence more quality titles.
2016 really saw the Xbox One start to shine and from Stage 1 we have 50 massive titles, so with that number each voter gets up to 10 votes and at least 10 titles will go through to Stage 3.

Review – Deaths Door
Death’s Door is an adorable top-down action-adventure RPG with Souls-Like elements and an engrossing tale that is rich in character and colour. It is developed by Acid Nerve and published by Devolver Digital. Death’s Door hosts a strange world where nothing has died for a plenitude of years, where crow’s have been hired to reap the souls of the dead and the player takes control of one particular crow that is assigned a soul in an unfamiliar land. A grim tale with many twists and turns that is offset by its weird and wonderful inhabitants of the land, along with a serene soundtrack that never tires.
