We're coming down the home stretch, but before we get to the main event, we've got four more regular categories to highlight some of the best and worst aspects of 2015's video games.

Sony's big blue baby is ending the year in style.
Awesome game.
Jake Kazdal and 17bit nailed it.
I preordered Galak-Z and Rapture and i'm thrilled.
Very hard but satisfying, combat is terrific.
Fantastic game. As a Bloodborne veteran, someone who laughed in the face of Demons in Demon Souls, I have finally hit a game that has beaten me.......it is flamin' solid, I am considering admitting defeat in fact.
Fantastic game!
