Best of 2015

Le, Gamed: Twas a great year for it. My 5 favorite in order from the top.

List items

  • Plays like a dream and tells a story like no one, but Hideo Kojima, can. Still surprised me with how engrossed I got. Soundtrack is one of the best. I love metal gear. Logged in 120 hours. For a comparison- Metal Gear IV took me 20 hours to beat.

  • One of the greatest story experiences I've ever had. With all the extra content they released this year, by November, I ended up spending a little over 190 hours playing this game. That's like watching over 95 movies! Worth every minute

  • Few times will a game move me from sheer wonderment, to reverence, to puzzlement, to utter sadness and back. Life is Strange made all that happen. This game made me think about who I am, what I believe in and what I could truly be capable of. Superb.

  • They put a ROCKET on a CAR, then throw a giant BALL in the middle of a FIELD, and then you play soccer…scoring a goal is one of the best feelings in the world

  • This is my sleeper hit of the year. Spike Lee’s written and directed story mode drew me in with morbid curiosity (I was not disappointed, it was just as much morbid as it was hilarious). What I didn't expect was a robust, complex, and utterly rewarding gaming experience behind it. I was bad at this game because I didn't know about basketball beyond “put ball in net”. Now I picked up the nuances of the sport and not only do I enjoy running plays in game, I've actually started enjoying real life basketball. Before this game I would sit in a bar, watching the Heat and my eye would simply follow the ball. Now when I watch, I’m following everything, the teams, the court, the strategies. Who would of thunk?
