Will add more later. Reluctant to consider Just Cause 3 until the devs disperse all our doubts about microtransactions being in the game.

I can't believe how insane this upcoming year is for Arkham Knight to have to settle for 6th place.

1. Splatoon: I've been keeping up with this game ever since its reveal and it seems like it'll be one of the most fun games I've played in a long time. And it'll give people something to show when others claim that Nintendo doesn't make new IPs anymore.
2. Persona 5: Been riding this hype train since November 2013, not gonna hop off any time soon. Just shy of the number 1 spot though since, well, we haven't actually seen much of the game besides an anime trailer and the MC design.
3. Zelda Wii U: I'm probably in the minority here but I actually liked the emptiness of the overworld from the gameplay demo. Just exploring vast landscapes without any enemies in the way can make for an amazing experience when done right. I'm hyped.

1. Persona 5: 4 Golden is simply amazing. It was an unforgettable ride. Hope this one is equally good. Just that is enough for me.
2. No Man's Sky: It's unbelievable how 10 guys are doing this. It may be a boredom fest, but just launching and working is a remarkable achievement. The hype is massive.
3. Bloodborne: A faster, more agressive Dark Souls? Count me in and defeat me as many times as you want.
4. Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain: It's a Kojima. And in a "open-world"! Ground Zeroes was pretty good, albeit short. I suppose the full-fleged game wiil be way better.
5. Uncharted 4: Drake's Deception: A game from Sony's flagship studio. Well, it should be... oh wait, it's Uncharted! It's definitely be good.
6. The Legend of Zelda Wii U : One of the reasons I will buy a Wii U in the near future (besides Smash and Bayonetta 2). Despite some ground textures (bet they'll be improved), the game looks dazzling. And another one with an open world. High expectations for this one.
7. Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number: How the hell could I forgot to include this game? Sign me in for another wild ride through an insane game, now bigger and with a level editor!
8. Xenoblade Chronicles X: And here's another reason. An immense world map? Mechs? Love how that sounds!
9. Batman: Arkham Knight: Rocksteady has done a brilliant job in Asylum and in City. This one can't go wrong... it can't, Rocksteady.
10. Tearaway: Unfolded: I am a bit angry with Sony and Media Molecule for taking this game out of Vita. That marvelous machine deserved that exclusive. In spite of that, Tearaway was marvelous. As long as they tailor it to the PS4, I won't be that mad with them. The game deserves a bigger audience.

I really wanted to include Final Fantasy XV in this list... but I know it just won't happen.

*heads over to kickstarter account*

1. Pillars of Eternity: The game that put Kickstarter on my radar, and the game I've desperately wanted since finishing BG2 over a decade ago, CRPGs ARE BACK BABY!
gaming-pillars-of-eternity-screenshot-4.jpg


2. Torment Tides of Numenera: Pretty much the same reason as Pillars of Eternity, also being the spiritual successor to one of the best CRPGs helps plenty.
59715.jpg


3. Unsung Story Tales of the Guardians: Base game design and story by Matsuno, music by Sakimoto, and translation by Alexander Smith, the holy trinity to my favourite game console RPG of all time banded together with a solid developer to make a really cool TRPG? Yup. Instantly backed.
Unsung-Story.jpg


4. Cosmic Star Heroine: The makers of the best indie JRPGs are making their own original game that's not a spoof and harkens back to Phantasy Star and Chrono Trigger? Sign me the fuck up.
image_39140_fit_620.jpg


5. Darkest Dungeon: A dark, depressing, dungeon crawler RPG that has a very cool mental state mechanic? Yup. I'm in. All in. Gimme.
c594fcc37fe1f74f06f56a4592165246_large.png


6. Bloodborne: Miyazaki returns to make a faster, offensive orientated Souls game. If you haven't noticed, I love me some dark, gritty RPGs and Bloodborne has got me all hot and bothered.
bloodborne-gamescom.jpg


7. Final Fantasy Type-0 HD: Having deliberately not played the fan translated version, I'm eagerly awaiting to what one many have said is the best Final Fantasy game in years.
mpz9zyyev1j67jd9fzov.jpg


8. Rime: I liked Deadlight, despite its problems, and having Tequila Works go in the extreme opposite direction and give us something akin to Ico/Shadow of the Colossus before Sony Japan does has me extremely excited.
14949490846_72bd065249_b.jpg


9. Uncharted 4: Uncharted has been a fantastic series and I can't wait to see how it all ends.
uncharted-4-2.jpg


10. The Order 1886: Color me intrigued by the dark and gritty setting/mood backed up by, what looks to me, some solid third person action.

1. Bloodborne: The Souls series are probably my favorite games last gen, I enjoyed each of them immensely and I'm almost definitely going to spend a ton of time playing this game as it's looking really great as well.
2. Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate: I've spend so much time on Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate with my friends, and the sequel looks amazing. I'm certain I will have a ton of fun with this, I'm just sad it's not on Wii U as well.
3. Persona 5: I love the SMT franchise, and Persona 5 looks amazing. I have no doubt this will be an amazing game.
4. Danganronpa Another Episode: Danganronpa 1 and 2 were among my favorite games this year, if the third is anywhere near as good as the first two I can't wait to play this game.
5. Xenoblade Chronicles X: The first was one of the best JRPGs of the last generation, so I'm really anticipating this game.
6. Metal Gear Solid V: I actually haven't played the MGS series yet, but it's been recommend to me by so many people that I'm going to play through it early next year as it looks like an amazing series.
7. Zelda U: I've been a big Zelda fan ever since the SNES/GB games, this would be higher but Skyward Sword wasn't amazing and the open world aspect has me worried, so I'm cautiously optimistic, but still excited.
8. Devil Survivor 2 Break Record: Devil Survivor - Overclocked is one of my favorite 3DS games and I'm looking forward to playing the sequel as I've never played the original games.
9. Rime: This game looks like Ico, which I loved. I actually don't know too much about the game itself besides that but I'm excited for it regardless.
10. Toukiden Kiwami: I haven't played the original, but I've heard it's a faster-paced monster hunter, which seems a lot of fun. I'll likely end up playing this with my friends after we're done with Monster Hunter 4.

1 Pillars of Eternity : The beta is just a taste; I'm really looking forward to seeing what Obsidian can accomplish.

2 Torment Tides of Numenera : The heyday of RPG's on Kickstarter may be fading (at least the really big ones) but this one goes hand in hand with Pillars on my anticipation scale.

3 Batman Arkham Knight : Arkham Asylum was one of those games that earned itself a replay slot for years; this series is special to me, and I'm greatly looking forward to one last ride with the Bat.

4 Star Wars Battlefront : WHERE THE HELL HAVE THE STAR WARS GAMES BEEN?!?

5 Cosmic Star Heroine : Looks promising, and from a dev I get a kick out of.

5 Until Dawn : I love the premise; hope it delivers.

6 No Man's Sky : To boldly go where no one has gone before
 
1) Legends of Zelda WiiU : HD Zelda, does anything else need to be said?

2) Trails in the Sky SC : The first game was this little out of nowhere steam jrpg from Xseed that completely blew me away and its ending left me craving for the second chapter. Trails FC has become one of my all time favorite games and is one of the best I've ever played, I NEED this sequel.

3) Splatoon : This crazy fps from Nintendo continues to look better and better the more we see of it. Hoping it becomes Nintendo's next big thing

4) Xenoblade Chronicles X : Loved Xenoblade Chronicles and the sequel looks to be bigger and better. Post that silly gif of the guy getting in a mech here.

5) Final Fantasy Type 0 HD : Heard great things from importers of the psp game, and even if I hadn't a demo for FFXV would have pushed me over the edge.

6) Bravely Second : Really enjoyed what I've played of the first game (need to finish it) and what I've seen of the sequel has me very excited.

7) Halo 5 Guardians : I really liked Halo 4 and I'm a big fan of the Halo lore and universe so another Halo gets me excited. The multiplayer changes don't bother me because I'm not big into fps online multiplayer on consoles.

8) Tales of Zestiria : Love the Tales games, some things Zestiria has shown have me excited and others have me concerned but I'm sure it'll still be very enjoyable just for the combat alone.

9) No Man's Sky : Just the fun of exploring an infinite space is all I needed, the more I see the more I want

10) Mighty No 9 : My username and avatar have been Mega Man themed since I first joined online message boards in 2003 and the franchise holds a special place in my heart. I believe in Inafune and am interested to see what he'll do free of Capcom with this new franchise

This list assumes that FFXV and KH3 won't be out next year

Oh hang on a sec, a lot of us are voting for No Man's Sky but isn't it ineligible since it isn'the confirmed for 2015 (even though it might be a safe assumption)? Same goes for a few others like Rime.

1. Persona 5 : Atlus can do no wrong for me, and the long gap between mainline Persona titles makes the anticipation even sweeter.
2. Pillars of Eternity : Original IP? Isometric view? Obsidian, Avellone, Cain, Sawyer? Close enough to D&D where it might as well be, Pathfinder-style? It's like they hacked my dreams.
3. Xenoblade Chronicles X : Could be my #1 easily, but I don't yet have a Wii U and will likely get to this last of the games on my list. Monolith Soft are Gods, and this will be great.
4. Metal Gear Solid V : the Phantom Pain : Kojima has yet to disappoint, and I love this series. Another consistently great franchise.
5. Yakuza 5 : Shocked as Hell this is being translated, buying day 1 to support the decision. So much fun.
6. SOMA : Horror game from one of the very best, love Frictional. Seems like they are moving up in weight class, interested to see the results.
7. Torment : Tides of Numenera : Wow, it's like the 90s are back. Inexile, Fargo, Cook, Mitsoda, Avelonne again? Should be higher, but I think this gets delayed again. Maybe.
8. The Witcher 3 : the Wild Hunt : I need one more big game from CD Project Red to get them into Legend status, this will be it.
9. Hyperdevotion Noire : Goddess Black Heart : Battle system by Sting, on the Vita directly, with the Neptune girls. Many hours will be stolen from me with this.
10. Resident Evil Revelations 2 : Considering Revelations 1 destroyed RE6, this is now the mainline RE series for me.

As an aside, this year is absolutely stacked. The top 8 all look like GOTY quality and could be #1 in a different year.

1. : No Man's Sky

I believe in No Man's Sky so much right now. It tells you a lot it's my most antcipated game over the next game from one of my favourite studios, of which development is being led by the two folk (Druckley) who made my favourite game ever (The Last of Us).

I like that - besides the main goal of trying to reach the centre of the universe - what you do in it is ambigous. It's completely up to you how to play the game. Just explore, do quests, etc. It's not dissimilar to Minecraft when you think about it. And this is coming from someone who, as much as I respect what Mojang has done, just can't get on with Minecraft.

But the fact it's sci-fi helps. And that I'm also a fan of Joe Danger.

Won't go into a long story, but the broad scope and scale of what Hello Games is attempting to do for such a small studio is impressive. And if they pull this off and do it well, god knows what we're going to end up playing (hopefully) sometime next year.

Uncharted-4-A-Thief-s-End-Gets-Confirmed-for-2015-New-Trailer-Released.jpg


2. : Uncharted 4: A Thief's End

As gutted as I am we won't ever see Amy Hennig do another Uncharted again, A Thief's End is in the best of hands. Two Uncharted alumni and the co-leads for one of the finest games of all time return for what seems like the series' grand farewell (or at least, Naughty Dog's farewell to the series).

Druckmann and Straley have proven their chops together on The Last of Us and now it's time to see how that transfers into Uncharted. That said, they form half of perhaps the core team of one of the finest action games ever in UC2 (the other half being Hennig and Richard Lemarchand) so there's a bit more to add to the hype train.

And with the showing of gameplay recently at PlayStation Experience, showing open-ended gameplay, a new improved AI system which seems to have taken its cues from TLOU, a darker story but seemingly still maintaining the humour of the series and more, this seems a no-brainer.

TL;DR - NAUGHTY DOG. DRUCKLEY. BOOM.

20140406121824!Metal_Gear_Solid_V_The_Phantom_Pain_logo.png


3. : Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain

For perhaps the first time since I got into the series, my main reason for being excited for the next Metal Gear isn't the story (though I am excited for that too), but the gameplay. Ground Zeroes was a fantastic taster in regards to what The Phantom Pain could do in regards to open-ended gameplay.

Not to mention, the Fox Engine. Dang.

Rise_of_the_Tomb_Raider_66719.jpg


4. : Rise of the Tomb Raider

It's a shame it's not coming to PS4, but I have an Xbox One so it's not a dealbreaker for me.

I really, really enjoyed Tomb Raider 2013. It's such a terrific game and one I really enjoyed. It'll be interesting to see where Crystal Dynamics takes the series with this one, but I know it, if TR '13 is an indicator, will be a fun ride.

2653483-0897731589-Perso.jpg


5. : Persona 5

Persona 4 got me into the series hard when it released in Europe in 2009 on PlayStation 2, sinking 20 hours in (got stuck at Kanji). I've sunk more than half of that into P4: Golden on Vita at 40 hours (stuck again at Naoto).

Again, no brainer. Can't wait for this one.

(Also: DOHOHOHOHOHO PERSONA 5 IN FIFTH)

Logo+Small+Fit.jpg


6. : Quantum Break

I am such a huge fan of Alan Wake, even though I don't deal with most horror games very well (it wasn't a horror game as such, but apathetically, it felt it). Now that Remedy is doing an action game similar to its early days with Max Payne and adding an interesting twist to it is up my alley.

In Sam Lake, I Trust.

242978-aheader.jpg


7. : Yoshi's Wooly World

ADORBS. That's all you need.

batman-logo.jpg


8. : Batman: Arkham Knight

Like the few hours I spent with Asylum and loved City to completion (should finish Asylum, really). If Knight is anything like City and thensome, this is most likely going to be high up my GOTY list.

captain_toad__treasure_tracking_by_tufsing-d7ltnug.png


9. : Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker

Not in the UK until January. Also, it comes out on MY BIRTHDAY! MY BIRTHDAY!

xenoblade-chronicles-x-logo.png


10. : Xenoblade Chronicles X

Initially, it was one of two reasons why I was keeping my Wii U (the other being Bayonetta 2). Now it's one of several reasons why I'm keeping my Wii U to the point it's managed to save itself from being sold off.

Can't wait for this to drop, the Zone of the Enders fanboy in me will feel right at home with this. Now to get cracking on the original, assuming I can find my copy somewhere.

Honorable mentions: Ori & The Blind Forest, Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, The Legend of Zelda Wii U, The Division, Rainbow Six: Siege, Bloodborne, Everybody's Gone to the Rapture, The Witcher III.

1. Uncharted 4: Naughty Gods have yet to dissapoint me. The gameplay looks amazing and I have faith the story will be excellent and well paced.
2. Batman Arkham Knight: Absolutly loved arkham asylum and arkham city. Yet to play arkham origins. I trust rocksteady enough that this is super hyped for me. I have tiny doubts about the supposed focus on the batmobile but I remain hopeful.
3. Tom Clancy's The Division: Ubisoft, don't let me down... It looks so good. I am hyped for this and terrified it will let me down.
4. No Man's Sky: There is so much to get excited about with this game. There is also a lot of things that could go wrong. But I remain super optimistic.
5. The Order 1886: I was always hyped for this game. I never got the whole, looks good, plays meh argument. It just gets better and better as well.
6. Star Wars Battlefront: I shouldn't be hyped. We haven't seen enough... but it's star wars battlefront! It has to be good, right?
7. Dying Light: So close to launch and it actually looks really good. Hype went up from zero to, well seventh on this list when I saw the tga trailer and the ign first gameplay.
8. Bloodborne: I have to have it on the list. Not a huge rpg fan but this looks really good. A true killer app for ps4, just not my thing, still the only real rpg to make the list, it just looks great.
9. Until Dawn: I don't know much about this game, but it looks pretty good to me. Will wait to see ore but pretty excited to see more.
10. Evolve: Dropped like a rock after I heard some less favourable opinions of the alpha. Still hopeful for this game, loved left 4 dead.

1. Star Wars Battlefront Q4 2015

21863ccac686221c14ec8eb893b97845.jpg


I am actually really scared that EA is going to screw this up somehow or the push Battlefield Hardline to the fall and move this to 2016. Nevertheless, how could I not be excited to return to Battlefront in beautiful HD? I can't wait to find a great MP game to get me and the gang online again. When I look at the list of upcoming games this is the only one that gives me butterflies.


2. The Order 1886 2/20/2015

i7fsbug5tX9rf.gif


Now I have no thoughts of this being Game Of The Year and I am not exactly sure what to expect but, I have good feelings about this game. I have been craving a solid cinematic story driven action game for a long time now. I have not played anything great in that genre since The Last Of US and I really feel like this game is going to be up there with TLOU. I got goosebumps watching them score the game with that full orchestra. Another reason to be excited for this game is that it's ready, we are only 6 weeks away from QTE's and sweet looking steampunk guns.

3. Uncharted 4 Fall 2015

tumblr_n6xn9hb28g1sq2xoeo4_500.gif


See Uncharted 1, 2 and 3. Could be number #1 on this list but its so far away, the playable demo from the PlayStation exp. blew me away.


4. Drawn To Death 2015

and8vm.gif


From the guy who made Twisted Metal, God Of War and Mickey Mania comes an arena shooter that takes place in a teenagers notebook doodles. David Jaffe not only stole the show at the PS exp. He WAS the show. It's refreshing to see a new IP on here and I am excited to get back into arena shooters. I hope 2015 brings the arena shooter back. I am worried about how much content this game has (lack thereof). I would be disappointed to see only 4 or 5 characters in this game and less than 15 maps.

5. Bloodborne 3/24/2015

Bloodborne-gif-ps4-consoles-1735270.gif


I never took the time to play a Souls game but I can't find anyone that won't say great things about them. In fact, everyone I know that has played a Souls game says I'm crazy for haven't. The opposite of a lot of games on my list I have no idea what Bloodborne is about but, god dayum it looks fun. Most of the other games in the year end lists you know what they are but, will they run well? Will they be fun? I have good feelings about this game, and with a March release its really close.

6. No Man's Sky 2015

giphy.gif


The small team over at Hello Games that lost nearly everything to a flood on Christmas Eve 2013 might of just caught some lightning in a bottle with No Man's Sky. Sometimes in games random events happen for example, Borderlands every time you find a gun in the game its randomly generated from all of the variables a gun in the game could have. No Man's Sky takes that method of procedurally generating content and applies it to ENTIRE PLANETS, ENTIRE FUCKING PLANETS. The team estimates that the game is only 10-12gb and that's scary small for a PS4 game however the game is just a disc of variables and the game gets built as you play it, this allows for more than 18 quintillion possible planets (not joking). Will No Man's Sky be any fun? Can't wait.


7. Just Cause 3 2015

260-cover-reveal-610x343-wm.jpg


Just Cause 2 was one of my favorite $9.99 finds, completely on a whim one of those "ah this looks interesting" buys. What a shit storm of fun that was. Just Cause is like Spider-man meets Tomb Raider, an open world action adventure game where you grappling hook and parachute your way out of pretty much everything as it explodes. The power of the new consoles will allow the devs to expand the game so now it is possible for the player to explore subterranean caverns and to scale buildings more effectively and realistically. Just Cause 3 promises more Just Cause, with more volume, and hopefully more explosions.


8. Batman: Arkham Knight 6/2/15

odizjtil8nvgylhohqn6.gif


The Arkham series continues on the new consoles and it is looking better than ever. The game is going to be centered around a new villain created for the game (not sure how I feel about this there are plenty of Batman villains that already exist). Another new feature of the game is the re-designed Gotham, now being able to use the Batmobile as your main mode of transportation.

9. Mighty No. 9 4/2015

mighty_9_kickstar_ingame_squence1_zps1d811853.gif


Keiji Inafune, unable to get any love from the crazies at Capcom to keep Mega Man going took to KickStarter. The spiritual successor to Mega Man was successfully funded on September 2, 2013 and then a few more times after new milestones were announced. As of this summer MN9 is the sixth most funded project in Kickstarter history. Hopefully Inafune can validate this miraculous crowd-funding experience by actually releasing the game this year.

10. Silent Hills 2015

BALCONY_GHOST.0.gif


Hideo Kojima (Metal Gear series) and film director Guillermo del Toro (Hellboy, The Hobbit, Pacific Rim) team up to resurrect the Silent Hill franchise starring Norman Reedus (The Walking Dead). I played the demo and HOLY SHIT THIS IS THE SCARIEST FUCKING THING I HAVE EVER PLAYED IN MY LIFE. When I have friends over I love to make them play it in the dark, its great. Hopefully they haven't honeydicked' us and we will be able to visit Silent Hills in 2015.


Honorable mention:


divisiongif.gif

The Division: The game has been essentially MIA for a year and half and UBI can't seem to get anything right. Not to mention Watchdogs, after that whole thing can we believe anything they have to show us?


legendofgif.gif

Zelda U: This game should be #1 but I don't believe that its a 2015 title for a second

Evolve: This game was my #3 or #4 but good god the Alpha was disappointing

1, Uncharted 4: Looks amazing, can't wait to try Naughty Dogs first next-gen game.

2, The Order 1886: Again, looks amazing, had it on pre-order since 2013, the game people love to hate, I've always loved the look/feel of it (from videos).

3, Bloodborne: It'll be my second "souls" kind of game, I gave up early into the first one I played.

4, Ori and the Blind Forest: Looks great.

5, Metal Gear Solid V: It's Metal Gear Solid!

6, The Tomorrow Children: Creepy looking game, love it.

7, Until Dawn: Forgot to add this one to my list, looks better and better the more I see of it.
 
1. Xenoblade X - I know my life won't be the same after I play this game. That big is my trust in Monolith.

2. Persona 5. The same for this game. Persona 3 & 4 showed me a new level of immersion.

3. Zelda U. It's a tradition. Also, open world is like a dream come true even if it's barren.

4. No Man's Sky. I have full confidence the gameplay side of the game won't be a problem. Ground breaking stuff right here.

I've reverted to full Nintendo in 2014 and I don't think that is going to change in 2015. I think I'll probably only buy the top three on my list due to backlog constraints.

1. Xenoblade Chronicles "X" : been waiting since the game was announced. The world supposedly being x5 the size of the original Xenoblade is my main reason. + being able to explore with mechs and actually fly around when exploring... that's HUGE in my books.
2. Zelda U : After Geoff Keighley's AMAZING VGA's and the gameplay unveiling this reinforces my #2 spot. The vista's, the color... those two alone are enough... let alone that it's a Zelda game with an also amazingly large scaled world.
3. Final Fantasy XIV - Heavensward : Flying islands? Focus around Dragons? New classes and a lot we don't even know about yet? LARGER MAPS?! 3rd choice!
4. Yakuza 0 : I own every Yakuza game and the setting alone already makes it sound like it will be my favorite Yakuza game of them all. Also, only playing as either a younger version of Kazuma is gtreat too! I miss that!
5. Star Fox U : Curious to see how they make the gamepad work and if they'll use the same voices or not.
6. Mario Maker : Making Mario Bros, Mario Bros 3 and Super Mario World themed levels... AND being able to share them. Couldn't ask for more in this game.
7. Rime - The choice of color, everything else... general aesthetics. More exploration.
8. Bloodborne - Victorian setting, a procedural dungeon, multiplayer, dark, bloody... hopefully there's even more we don't know about or maybe they plan to have a longer lifespan with that game too?
9. No Man's Sky - Exploration - constant NEW exploration... that's basically it for me.
10. Final Fantasy Type-0 HD - The story, characters, traditional FF world map... I mean Izana is my avatar. It'll be great to play this in HD now.

1. Uncharted 4 (PS4): Naughty dog, best developer in the world! Uncharted 2 is my favorite game from the since the N64/PS1 era, (even before TLOU).
2. Final Fantasy XV (PS4): Should have been nr 1 if Square Enix not have been so bad the last decade.
3. Bloodbourne (PS4): Love the Souls series and I got 5 platinum trophys in Souls games!
4. Witcher 3 (PS): Looks like a better world than Skyrim!
5. Dark Souls 2 Scholar of Sin (PS4): Same as nr3.
6. Batman Arkam Knights (PS4): Need to play one of the Batman games!
7. Zelda (WiiU): I love Zelda games but did'nt play the last ones and don't own a WiiU.
8. No Mans Sky (PS4): Like the design!
9. Persona 5 (PS4): JRPG!
10. Dead Island 2 (PS4): Liked the first game alot but did'nt like the enemy leveling scaling, hope they skip it this time.

A lot of good games next year!!
Metal Gear, Overwatch, Tales of, Rime, Xenoblade, The Order are other huge games.

1. Halo 5 Guardians: I might not like the direction 343 is taking the Multiplayer, but just the thought of how the campaign will be drives me crazy with anticipation.
2. Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain: It's METAL GEAR. What's not to get hyped about?
3. Dragon Ball Xenoverse: It's DB. Not much else to say really.
4. Smite: I have been interested in Smite for a bit, and getting to play it on the One next year will be enough for me to play it-
5. Star Wars Battlefront: I have been waiting for a new Battlefront for a while. I need a new one, even if it is being done by Dice.
6. Evolve: Alpha got me interested in it-
7. Mighty No.9: I like Mega Man and I have been missing the Blue Bomber ever since MM10.
8. ScreamRide: Looked like Rollercoaster Tycoon from what I remember.
9. Quantum Break: It just looks fun to mess around with.
10. Scalebound: A Platinum exclusive. Might as well get hyped.

Gotta say, this list was pretty hard to make as the One has so few games coming out compared to everything else.

It was The Witcher III and now it's Street Fighter 5.

Actually, I have no clue if the latter is coming out in 2015 so if not, the answer is obvious.
 
1. No Man's Sky : If the gunplay is good, this game could be God tier.
2. Witcher 3 : Love me some big RPGs.
3. Bloodborne : I like the direction they are taking Dark Souls...
4. Uncharted 4 : Should be a treat for PS4.
5. Mortal Kombat X : First next gen from Netherrealm, yes please!
6. Star Wars Battlefront : Next gen Battlefield in the Star Wars universe... sign me up.
7. The Division : Gameplay looks unique, graphics and destructible terrain look awesome.
8. Evolve : Some asymmetrical multiplayer, looks unique. I never got into the alpha but from what I saw it looked pretty cool.
9. Order 1886 : Graphics whore here, I won't deny it.
10. Halo 5 : Need something to feed my bone.

1. No Man's Sky

My first true love for a game was time pilot I used to feel free playing it. I have a thing for flying hopefully this game can capture that part of my imagination as it did when I was a kid.
 
My list:

1. Quantum Break; loved Alan Wake, can't wait for this looks great
2. Halo 5 Guardians; Halo from the ground up on Xbox One, should be good.
3. Rise of the Tomb Raider; TR reboot was great, got high hopes for the sequel
4. Ori and the Blind Forest; I played it a few months ago at an Xbox preview event and loved it
5. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt; another big RPG, next-gen only and loved TW2
6. Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain; GZ played great but lack content, big MGS fan
7. No Man's Sky; I like the idea of exploring planets
8. Cities Skylines; not really played any Paradox games before but looks interesting and I love tycoon/city building games
9. Hollowpoint; Im a big Ruffian fan, can't wait to see their new IP
10. State of Decay: Year One Survival Edition; Hopefully its fixed up nicely and relatively bug free

Thats what I've got so far, perhaps it will change early in 2015.
 
1. Arkham Knight: the Arkham series are some of my favorite games of all time, only behind/right next to Dishonored. Can't wait for Rocksteady to blow me away again.

(long gap)

2. No Man's Sky: Looks really, really good. Too bad I'll only play it on PC, would love to enjoy it on my XB1.

(much longer gap)

3. Battlefront: I don't expect much good out of it as it's DICEfront and it's just going to end up being Battlefield in space but it's still a Battlefront, and that is my shit.
4. Halo 5: Guardians: I do love me some Halo.
5. Quantum Break: Looks good. I think I'm probably going to play through Alan Wake for the first time before I play this one, though.
6. Ori and the Blind Forest: Usually not a fan of indie platformers, but all of the trailers have me sold on the story, so maybe?
7.Rise of the Tomb Raider: Liked TR:DE, I'm sure its sequel will be worth playing.
8. MGSV: I never got into MGS, only one I really played was Peacewalker on PSP (which I did really enjoy though). Might buy this one, probably not.
9. Saints Row IV: Re-Elected: I liked SR4, maybe not as much as SR3, but I still liked it.
10. Witcher 3: It looks nice?

That list was really scraping the bottom of the barrel for me. Only plan to buy 1,2 and maybe 3. I'll probably rent 3 (if I didn't buy it), 4, 5, and 7. 6 I might get if I have leftover Xbox money, the rest I probably won't even touch.

1. Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain : It's my favorite series of all time. I expect greatness.
2. Ratchet & Clank : My son just got into Ratchet & Clank and we're both eager to play a new one on PS4.
3. Cuphead : Really love the art style. I kind of expect this one to break my heart, though...
4. Rime : Another one with great art style. And the ICO-ness cannot be ignored. I thought Deadlight looked good and that didn't turn out so hot, so who knows?
5. Ori and the Blind Forest : I find it intriguing.
6. Silent Hills : Yeah, P.T. was really cool, but will Norman Reedus and Guillermo del Toro help or hurt Silent Hills? We'll hopefully find out next year.
7. Uncharted 4: A Thief's End : Wasn't caring too much and then saw that gameplay demo. Looks really fun. I look forward to it.
8. The Order: 1886 : I like the character design and the filmic look is nice.
9. State of Decay: Year One Survival Edition : I played the 360 demo and it seemed like a diamond in the rough. I may have to actually check out the game proper on the One.
10. Mario Maker : I can see friends and family having quite a bit of fun with this one, so it's definitely on my radar.

1. Xenoblade Chronicles X

It's crazy that a game that barely made it to US/EU is now getting the attention it deserves from Nintendo. Shulk is in Smash, XBC is a New 3DS exclusive, and XBCX will be the cherry on top.

Also giant mechs!

2. Bravely Second

I loved all of Bravely Default, so I'm up for more job-switching, dungeon crawling fun.

3. No Man's Sky

I'm hoping that morpheus support is announced, since this seems like the perfect title to launch it.

4. Fat Princess Adventures

Really enjoyed the PS3 version. Never expected a console sequel, so this is a welcome surprise.

5. Kirby Rainbow Curse

Sequel to the best touch screen controlled game of all time.

6. Yoshi's Wooly World

Glad to play a Yoshi game that doesn't include the awful Yoshi's Story artstyle.

7. Star Fox

More excited to see what role Project Guard/Giant Robo could play in the new Star Fox.

8. Saints Row IV : Re-Elected

Held off for the HD re-release. Looks like silly fun.

9. Might No. 9

Interested to see how this compares to Gunvolt, which I really liked.

10. FF Type-O HD

Let's be real, we want the FFXV demo.

1- Legend of Zelda U
2- Uncharted 4: I'm not sold on the trailer but I'm sure there will be tons more than that.
3- Persona 5
4- Xenoblade Chronicles X
5- Starfox U: I'm a little worried that neither Q-Entertainment and Namco is involved but it's Starfox anyway.
6- Tales of Zestria: Yet to play Xillia 2 but more Tales is a good thing.
7- Yoshi's Wolly World
8- Dragon Quest Heroes: DQ + Musou? This is gonna be my most played game of 2015.
9- Codename: Steam
10- God Eater 2 Rage Burst: who needs Monster Hunter 4 when this is around?

1. Bloodborne (PS4): As a huge fan of Dark Souls and Demon Souls i simply cannot wait for this game - the faster combat mixed with the stunning visuals sounds just too good...
2. Uncharted 4 (PS4): After switching from Xbox 360 to PS4 this is gonna be my first Uncharted. Very much looking forward to the ride.
3. Witcher 3 (PS4): Despite all the rumors and debate about the delay iam still certain this is gonna be a massive timesink
 
1. Xenoblade Chronicles X: Xenoblade was already awesome, and it promises to expand on each and every aspect in a positive way. A less shounen story, a bigger world, bearable graphics and mecha combat. I'm very curious how online would work.
2. Splatoon: I hate shooters, but I like to shoot things. Splatoon makes the ideal compromise between a video game and a shooter. I'm also very interested in seeing the first Nintendo EAD IP since the 2000s develop. I was not into gaming before the Wii happened, so I never watched Pikmin grow :(
3. Zelda U: Although I am a Zelda fan, it does not get to me yet. I don't have blind faith in Anouma just yet, as there have been issues with recent Zelda games. That said, everything we know is looking good. Then again, everything we know is based on wishful thinking...


Normally I am quite up to date with these sorts of things, but now I can't seem to get more than three games from the top of my head. Is it really such a barren wasteland or is it just me? Also, if Crash PS4 gets announced, that will probably be up there too.
Personally, I will be getting a lot of old games next year. Think of SMT IV, DKCTF, Shovel Knight, etc.
 
1.Bloodborne : I can't wait. The Chalice seems amazing - like the Abyss from DD and also the hint of "Umbasa" makes me intrigued...
2. Uncharted 4 : Didn't expect to be excited, but the video looked so good, and I feel ready to see Drake again now.
3. The Witcher 3 : I THINK I am still excited for this, but I am not actually sure. I want a nice open world RPG. But it may just be Bloodborne


I can't think of any others... Sad times. I imagine I will once we know more of 2015's lineup.
