Later!
What is your Game of the Year for 2015? Mine is Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.

If you want you can break it down by category or whatever I don't care.

The Suffering of the Succotash.
GOTY should go to the goatiest game released that year. Last year it was Goat Sim, this year Undertale should be the GOAT.

Undertale has more and better dogs than fallout 4, so its obviously a better game. Plus you can pet a dog so hard its head takes off like a rocket.

Metal Gear Solid V for me. Having never been a follower of the series I'm still shocked to be saying this in a year that gave us a new Fallout, but the gameplay in MGSV is sublime and sets a bar for stealth and action games that I doubt will be topped any time soon. A shame we'll probably never see more of it.

Honorable mentions go to Bloodborne and Super Mario Maker.

Oh, Witcher 3 easily.

"Fortunately", I was laid off shortly after its release so the Witcher 3 became my job for a while. It was a good time. :v:

Look'n forward to the big expansion next year.

I think that as much as I hate almost all of the trends of modern gaming: It owns that you can spend a billion dollars developing cell phone games, another billion doing TV commercials for the soda only available at Target and the shoes only available at Walmart as seen in Fallout 4, and the game of the year is still a game literally called "The Witcher" made by some Polish guys who actually named their company CD PROJEKT.

those guys basically decided a long time ago that they don't really give a poo poo if their games sell, they're just going to use the truckloads of cash that GoG generates to make the best games they know how to make because that's really their passion

turns out you can still be good at your passion and that's ok

Im glad my instant dislike in you has been validated again and again.
i am not sure. mine is kinda of a tie between MGS 5 and witcher 3. I liked fallout 4 alot, but it basically feels like a better more refined F3 with more gray factions and tons of fetch quests. not bad at all but not my GOTY.

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


Life is Strange was my favorite game from 2015. It gave me a lot to think about and I hope that more games like it will be made.

I want to get into it, but Chloe turned me off to the game alot, it get its her character, but she is such a lovely friend and rear end in a top hat that honestly stopped caring about how lovely her past was. i know she gets better and the rest of the plot is interesting. but ehh.
