Dealspwn: "Game Of The Year? In May?
I know, it seems bizarre, but there's method in my madness. Every year we get to GOTY season, submit our nominations, hand out our awards and then spend weeks painfully facepalming because we've missed out loads of sensational contenders from the first third of the year. Considering that so many games release over Christmas, it's all to easy to get overwhelmed and forget about some of the under-appreciated gems that released in Spring.
Not this year. Not on my watch. Now we're a third of the way through 2015, here are the Game Of The Year challengers so far: the games that we absolutely have to give due credit once voting season comes around. And, it must be said, the games you should probably be playing."
The GTA 5 Agent Trevor DLC episode could have been a real treat for fans on PlayStation and Xbox, before it was scrubbed sometime before 2017.
With the amount of money they generated, I just don’t understand the scrubbing of this. It would’ve been fantastic for fans.
I really want to know who drove the decision to focus on multiplayer was it Rockstar or take two.
Because when online started taking off many of the studio leads began having falling outs and leading including a founder
Grand Theft Auto V was released on PC on the 14th of April 2015. That means the game will be nine years old in four days, and it’s still among the most-played titles on Steam. With a 24-hour peak of 145K players, it’s as popular as Baldur’s Gate 3, Apex: Legends, and Destiny 2.
The Souls-like genre remains popular, along with FromSoftware's classics there are many contenders. But which are the best Souls-like games?
Hmm... In my opinion, the 7 best are the 6 made by FromSoftware (DeS, DS1, DS2, DS3, BB and ER), then Lies of P. But each to their own.
Good spread of releases for people that have ALL the consoles and a top notch PC. Just Bloodborne standing out for me so far on PS4.
I personally feel as though Ori is more than deserving of a mention at this point in the year. There are too many potential great games coming out over the course of the year for it to end up being truly considered at year's end, I imagine, but through the first quarter of the year I don't see how you could leave it off of the list.
Hell I own GTA 5 on PC, but even I don't think it should win GOTY. GOTY should be for a game that gives you a new experience, not just updated graphics. A remaster can't do that.
As much as I enjoyred Bloodborne, I have higher hopes for a few titles coming out later this year that will be the true GOTY. (Witcher 3 perhaps?)
When someone tells me GOTY 2015 i can only think in a battle between MGSV and Witcher 3. Two beasts AAA that are coming in full force and can't see any other game approaching their status this year.
