By default it has to be Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. I didn't buy any other 2015 games now that I think about it. :lol

Played a lot of Animal Crossing: New Leaf and Civilization: Beyond Earth, though.

I'll wait till I get some hands-on time with Xenoblade X. Out of games I've played that were released this year I've only played the following: Kirby and the Rainbow Curse (awesome), Mario Maker (awesome but I haven't spent too much time with yet), Project Mirai DX (awesome), MGS5 (amazing core gameplay with a ton of infuriating design decisions) and FF Type-0 HD (decent if you can make the concessions that it's a glazed-over PSP game)

Witcher 3 was easily the best game I played this year.

The rest in no particular order

Life is Strange
Fallout 4
Halo 5
Battlefront (because I think the mp is stupid fun)
Soma
Contradiction - Spot The Liar
Rocket League

I could easily name 5 more that just miss the list or I haven't played yet that would probably make it.

Very strong year imo.

1. FFXIV: Heavensward
2. Bloodborne
3. Oreshika: Tainted Bloodlines
4. Witcher 3
5. Corpse Party: Blood Drive
6. Persona 4: Dancing All Night
7. Dragon Ball Xenoverse
8. FF Type-0 HD   
9. MGSV
10. J-Star Victory Vs.
11. htoL#NiQ: The Firefly Diary   

Unrated due to not having touched/barely played yet:
Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls
Resident Evil Revelations 2
Read Only Memories

Few other games that I probably wont get around to, like Life is Strange, DQ Heroes and Fallout 4 (replaying New Vegas while 4 is still at full price), plus I've still got 2014 titles/ports to play while Heavensward keeps me busy. Great year, imo.

I change my mind to SFV beta. That was game of the year. I haven't played it yet because I just got mine and didn't participate in phases 1 or 2 but I DID get to do the tutorial and it gave a good preview of what I should be able to do in the game. Faster walk speed, some normals are slower and take more risk, plus it's hilarious. I must...feel my fist.

Plus the matches so far have been amazing on a pro level and no one even has the game yet. Entertaining af. That one tourney in October owned.

Goty
Title: Re: Post yer GOTY lists bois.
Post by: Bebpo on December 02, 2015, 07:24:25 PM
1.  GTAV PC
2.  Bloodborne + Expansion
3.  Zero no Kiseki Evolution (Trails of the Void)
4.  Batman Arkham Knight
5.  P4! Dancing all Night / Nayuta no Kiseki (Trails of Nayuta)

6-10 coming later.

Also fyi, my list is just whatever the fuck I played each year not paying any attention to the years the games actually come out.  Most games I don't get to in the year they're released.
Going by everyone's lists so far, I should probably sit down and play Life is Strange (picked it up over the thanksgiving steam sale).

1. Bloodborne + Expansion - More like BloodPORNE

2. Witcher 3 - Wild Cunts

3. Life is Strange - Best Telltale Style game I've played, insert hella joke

4. MGS V - It's like they wanted to put the most mediocre experience on top of the finest stealth mechanics

That's every game I put considerable time on this year that came out this year. Really conflicted about MGS, but when the game is at its best (mainly in the first 10 or so missions), there's nothing like it.

Making this list, I realize I mostly have stuff from 2014 and earlier on standby, and I am not excited for jack shit from 2015 or on the 2016 horizon right now. Mainly I get pissed that even games I want to buy seem to think hiding content behind platform exclusives or Collectors' Editions will win me over. Jackasses.

It was a really good year. Plenty of good games and none that I can think were outright terrible.

Yeah, I agree with ya Demi.  My problem personally is if I made top10s just based on what came out in the year, I'd probably have less than 5 games total.  Also what happens to those great amazing games you're a year late to?  Feels kind of sucky not giving them recognition.

Anyhow, all top 10 lists in general are flawed these days because there's literally like 500 games released a year since the indie rise up and no reviewer will have played even half the games that come out each year, so their top 10 lists will be relegated to the "top 10 of the games that came out this year that I actually played" and without knowing what they played/didn't play, it's kind of questionable. 

But I just like reading everyone's top 10 and if I see a game get mentioned a few times, or that seems interesting, I know at least a few people thought it was good so I'll try to check it out the following year.

I guess it depends on how much you replay games versus playing new stuff or stuff you haven't played before. What I thought was my GOTY in 2004 can change at any time, especially if I replay games from that year constantly. Keeping all games in the same category helps keeps things in the same perspective.

True, but my point still stands about opinions changing on what games were the best in what year.
Title: Re: Post yer GOTY lists bois.
Post by: Rahxephon91 on December 14, 2015, 01:00:31 PM
Yeah, but then I think having a Revised list of that year would be what you want.

Say you no longer think Halo 2 was better than Half Life 2 in 04. Having Half Life 2 appear on your 2015 list would'nt tell me that.

Remaking a a 2004 list would though.

Though if you see your GOTY list as this continuing thing then I guess your right. Still, i think that kind of defeats the point of the thing. Since it is just supposed to be a survey of the year.

There is always that feeling of how you feel at the moment and how you feel later about something. Honestly unless someone gave me a list, I would never remember what came out what year except the current one.

Transformers Devestation
Super Robot Wars Z3-2
Bloodborne
Witcher 3
Tales of Zesteria
Dragon Quest: Heroes

Award for best game I played with my kid this year: Snoopy's Grand Adevnture. Super old school 2D platformer. It was pretty damn refreshing.

1. The Room Three (iOS) ; This excellent puzzle game surpasses its predecessors. The contraptions you run into are clever and ingenius, but never so challenging that you can't solve them.
2. Bloodborne (PS4) ; A fresh update to the "Souls" series. Removing shields and adding shotguns was enough to force me to take another approach to fighting.
3. Prison Architect (PC) ; Earning money while trying to prevent prisoners killing each other is no easy task.
4. Rocket League (PS4) ; Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars never clicked with me. I don't know they changed but this is awesome.
5. Technobabylon (PC) ; Another great adventure game from Wadjet Eye Games.
6. Broken Age (PS4) ; Double Fine finally made a great game.
7. The Vanishing of Ethan Carter (PS4) ; Incredible pretty and it would be okay even as a walking sim. The murder mystery story is a great addition.
8. Metal Gear Solid V (PS4) ; If I had more time it might have ended up higher up on the list. Now I'm stuck doing sidequests in an early chapter.
9. Warhammer 40,000: Deathwatch - Tyranid Invasion (iOS) ; Great tactical combat with one of my favorite skins. Shooting tyranids never gets old.
10. Out There: Ω Edition (iOS) ; A decent replacement for FTL. Perhaps a bit too random.

I didn’t have time to play Her Story, Life is Strange, Invisible Inc., or Massive Chalice, games that I can imagine might have made my top 10.

Good to hear about Room 3.  I liked 1, but haven't got far in 2 because I didn't care for expanding the puzzles to a wider area.  Just felt like every other puzzle adventure game at that point.  But I'll get back to it and play 2/3 sometime.  It takes me forever to get around to playing mobile stuff since I put them on super low priority.  Just started Monument Valley today finally and really liking it.

Nice!  Yeah I'm totally stoked to get Dirt during a sale.  Dirt 1 & 2 are some of my favorite racers.  3 was ok and skipped Showtime or Showdown or whatever because it looked dumb.  Rally is back to the rally racing I loved the series for (although I did like the city race tracks in 2/3).

If I ever had like a few years of my life with no work or social obligations like when I was 13 again, I'd totally run through all the Yakuza games I'm behind on.  Maybe I'll play Zero this year since it's sort of a spinoff and continuity isn't important.  I can't play the mainline series since I'm still back at 3 on that so I just play the samurai ones these days.

Realized I totally forgot Banner Saga Ep1.  Really liked that one.  Best non-jrpg srpgs I've played in ages and the story (Oregon trail Norse Mythology) and art/music is super appealing.  Can't wait for further episodes in this series.

True, but my point still stands about opinions changing on what games were the best in what year.

could always say best game you played that year I suppose

I could look through Steam and do a stuff I played this year list.

Axiom Verge - It's Metroid but it's not. Lots of cool subversive power ups and shit. Lots of time spent not knowing exactly where to go when you have a lot of space open to you. Which I guess is what Metroid is/was. So yeah. A somewhat interesting story as well.
Brothers - A Tale of Two Sons. This game ends the stupid 'are games art' debate with a yes. Anyone that thinks otherwise hasn't played this. Put it in front of them and strap them to a chair for a few hours and once they're done tell them they're going to shut the fuck up now, cause this game shuts those people the fuck up. Really cool control scheme where each duder is controlled by one of your analog sticks and they have varying actions which are performed  by their respective trigger buttons. This is on the level of Miyazaki/Team Ico type stuff, and I don't even particularly dig Team Ico's work, it's just the best obvious comparison I can think of. Seriously it's $1.49 on Steam right now. This is a work that I feel is worth evangelizing as much as Bully if not more. PLAY IT.
Double Dragon Neon - It's goofy hyper '80s Double Dragon at first blush, then it turns out it's goofy '80s and early '90s literally every side scroller beat 'em up at the same time! I've not even played an hour but it's amusing shit for aging shitlords like this forum's populace.
Dynasty Warriors 8 XL CE - It's Dynasty Warriors. We have a thread for this. You know what it is.
Garry's Mod - Some of my Squad like to play Trouble in Terrorist Town and Prop Hunt during maints of our main jam. I don't do fps stuff much so i tend to be a total shit and die lots but this is fun times with bros anyway.
Goat Simulator - It's GOAT
Jigoku Kisetsukan - Sense of the Seasons - A 2hu style bullet hell dealy that is a bit challenging to see cause it's a cropped image on my already smallish craptop screen. A cool time for literally $0.
Long Live the Queen - A visual novel where you have to build various stats in order to survive which are affected by the type of mood your would be queen is. In the time I played  tried to keep her balanced and centered or in the 'positive' side of the various moods only to find that would make her learn certain skills very slowly or not at all! The first I've encountered such a mechanic. So there's more to this than just :uguu
Nekopara -
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZH1tVWGYckI
Phantasy Star Online 2 - Is coming to the US officially! But only in anime form. Some peeps that play(ed) this lots with me are possibly going to be hitting up Blade and Soul and possibly Black Desert Online so maybe this will get semi-abandoned in the new year or at least played a bit less. Have been putting an excessive amount of time into it during my quarter break. :-[
Rogue Legacy - I played this in January a bit apparently. Never finished but a good retro wander around aimlessly and build your dude up thing. I think I'd need to replay it with how I'm gonna do my tree planned out in order to do well and finish the damn thing.
Sakura Clicker - Do you want to click anime titties? Well then you want to play this. If you don't, then you don't.
Skullgirls - they took away a pantsu shot in an update ruined by SJWs 0/10. Nah this is another one of those games where I do not know wtf I am doing since the last time I was remotley into fightan games was the PSX days but it's fun to try and hang against buds.
Sanic & Sega All Stars Racing Transformed - Gotta go fast. It's Mario Kart but on every console and PC! Which is great for people that dig them some karting but don't have the latest Ninty offering

...turns out I played more than I thought I did this year. Nothing super current though.
