The XCX inclusion alone makes the list valid



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

You didn't want your important game at the top, just being in the list. That is a refreshing in here.

Lego Dimensions...

How about Halo 5 or Rise of the Tomb Raider?!

And the number 1 game is shovelware. OMG! There is no justice in this world.

Not really 2015 was amazing Bloodborne, mgs5, fatal frame 5, XCX, deception 4 and rise of the tombraider





Why i left PC gaming

 

(2015) Question for PS4 owners: if the situation would be reverse? would you still play on PS4?

decent list actually.

 

Honorable mentions – the games that just missed out

Cibele: Nina Freeman’s autobiographical tale has interesting things to say about love and relationships in the era of online gaming.

Volume: Robin Hood meets Metal Gear Solid in this clever minimalist stealth puzzler, which will soon be getting an outing on PlayStation VR.

Yoshi’s Woolly World: Another beautiful handicraft adventure, following on from the luscious Kirby’s Epic Yarn.

Star Wars Battlefront: Limited in terms of depth and progression, but EA Dice perfectly captures the look, feel and atmosphere of the movies.

Pillars of Eternity: Obsidian Entertainment’s spiritual successor to classic action RPGs Baldur’s Gate and Icewind Dale is as deep, engaging and well-written as fans demanded.

^ Pillars of eternity even got a mention. I loved Pillars of eternity, and feel like it should have made it top25, but even that it got a mention is fine enough.

This list is alot better than most of those best of year lists you normally see.

What, no Pillars of Eternity in the list? Oh, just sod off.
