Other than E3, Cloud/Bayonetta getting into smash, and Bloodstained kickstarter, I was pretty disappointed this year. Might actually be the worst year in gaming for me.

...You still see people complaining about graphics, but they are less common than they were before, more and more games with worse graphics are becoming popular so i do not see what you mean.

I mean, 2015 is the year where Prison Architect, Cities Skylines, Invisible Inc, Crypt Of The Necrodancer, Rocket League, Undertale and Transformers Devastation came out and they were all succesful for being good games despite not having the best graphics ever.

It was personally uneventful.

MGS5 fun as it was, was story weak. I miss the heavy cutscenes and codecs, Forget the tapes.

Fallout 4 was...... fallout 3 but looked slightly better.

Newish games I bought In 2015:

Rocket League
Air Brawl
Pony Island
Rise of Nations: Extended Edition (4-pack)
Metal Gear Solid V
Hidden in Plain Sight
Life is Strange
Fallout 4 (Fallout and Elder Scrolls are the only AAA franchises I'll buy on launch, $60)
Grim Fandango Remastered
The Yawhg
Metro: Last Light Redux
Styx
The Curious Expedition
Hand of Fate
Mordheim: City of the Damned

I bought another 30-50 older games on sale.

I'd say it was better than 2014, even if I did get Star Citizen and Divinity: Original Sin in 2014.

It had a lot of hyped games that ultimately didn't live up to the hype,even though they were great.

Undertale came out of nowhere and became GOTY.



I really should change my name.

MGSV the biggest disappointment in recent years. All I got out of the experience was eventually turned negative except for the sweet MGSV themed PS4 I got.



Yeah I bought a PS4 just to play the game what a let down.

I haven't played it myself yet, but I can kinda forgive them for it being lackluster with all the drama surrounding Konami and Kojima.

Did they do a good job replacing David Hayter?

Yes I think the new voice is perfect shame we only get to hear around 10 short lines from big boss the whole game. Its so jarring having so many characters say so little, sometimes in cutscenes it actually makes no sense like someone had to decide to remove the voices and make the whole scene awkward and some scenes go on with barely a grunt from anyone. Its like none of the characters care anymore to even be there.

So true, the lack of lines for Snake, made Snake and Sutherland feel more like background characters rather than the main.

2015 was a great year for gaming. We got MGS5, The Witcher 3, Fallout 4, Mortal Kombat X and GTA5 finally came to Steam. I'm sure there are other great games that came out in 2015 that I'm not aware of.

2015 was a pretty decent year but I think 2016 is going to be the best year in the last half decade, at least. A lot of upcoming games would have to flop for me to change that opinion.

I'm not one to ponder too much when it comes to exactly how much I enjoyed gaming in a year or so. Generally, I'd just say that overall, I did have a good year of gaming in 2015. There were disappointments, even the big 3 are not exempt from that but there were also surprises and pleasant experiences to be had in some of the lesser budgeted games.

Other than that, we were also treated to plenty of previews of games to come. Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is going to be one of the best games this year, I hope.

As for 2016, I'd say we are off to a damn good start. Tomb Raider seems alright and more importantly, XCOM 2 is well-acclaimed by critics.

Mostly disappointing unlike now when we have some nice heavy hitting games coming out of Japan like the glut of Dragon Quest games, Builders is a fantastic game, something I can't say for almost every game in 2015.

Depends if they NX is good and backwards compatable. Wii U is worth it for X, splatoon and super mario 3D world imo.

Overall mediocre. Batman sucked, MGS5 sucked... yet again. When the most remarkable moments people talk about are releases of Last Guardian and FF7 Remake (two games which will be delayed for sure), it kinda says something...
Definitely poor. Obviously, you can nitpick good stuff here and there, but few actually great games. I suppose now it only a matter of seeing if 2016 will dissapoint as well.

Yes! Yakuza 5 finally came to the west and hopefully they will announce 6 too, at least we have confirmation that zero will come to the ps4.
Come on people, 2015 was much better than '13 and '14 and 2016 looks pretty promising.

Well, there's the New 3DS XL...which is supposed to have more exclusive titles that's incompatible with the original model, but all it has is a single remake of a Wii game thus far. So yeah, not much.

I just got one since my old 3DS is pretty worn down.

Lot of bullshit, lots of terrible business practices.
Quite a few excellent games though. Witcher 3 was good, Fallout 4 was pretty decent , I liked Hotline Miami 2 a lot, Mad Max was pretty ok.
It had some really memorable and good games, but the year itself doesn't stand out much.

It was decent. Witcher 3, Bloodborne and Fallout were great while most other games were average or bad.
