What were your favorite game(s) in 2015, and what game(s) were you most disappointed by? Also what game(s) are you looking forward to the most in 2016?

For me the best game of 2015 is a toss-up between AC Syndicate and Just Cause 3. I'm probably going to get a lot of hate for this, but for me the worst was Halo 5, I completely lost interest after the first mission. The game I'm looking forward to the most in 2016 is Far Cry Primal.

The Talos Principle came out at the end of 2014, but I just got it this year and it is by far the best game I have ever played!

I don't really keep up with a lot of them.
Favorites:
-Undertale-reminds me of Mother 3 and Touhou, with a similar sense of humor. Can't seem to beat Undyne for some reason.
-Super Mario Maker-I haven't played it (except for a short play of a demo version at Best Buy), but I can tell it looks fun, and I've seen some truly extreme levels from that. Like this one:


The poor soul who gets that on 100 Mario Challenge.
I don't really want to buy a Wii U just for Mario maker. If they ever make a 3DS version, I'm more likely to settle for that.

Disappointment:
Five Nights at Freddy's 4-the pacing just sucks. I never got past night 2 because it's hard for me to listen for a specific breathing sound, and I have to be near the door for a few seconds before deciding what to do. The jumpscares were kinda anticlimactic, and the blood cutscene reminded me of MS Paint. The cupcake jumpscare was actually kinda goofy. After sitting thru 3 other games of jumpscares, it just isn't shocking anymore. I think the backstory is much more fascinating than the actual gameplay.

Undertale for sure on number 1. I really liked Life Is Strange and... That's it :D haven't played other games.
Yes....

Sorry for going out of a main "video game" topic, but I actually came to like "Dynamix" last year - it's the hardcore music game for Smartphones! You literally have to keep tappin' flashing notes coming from 3 directions to the music! Worth trying again and again! Let me say what a pure bliss!

:D

I've had some fun with Cities: Skylines this year. Other than that I haven't been much on playing video games. Don't even spend that much time in NL2 as I used to.
What are these for?

I wish I could play that, but it's unfortunately too intense for my computer to handle without lag and constant crashing. Hopefully when I upgrade my computer I can actually enjoy it.

I wish I could add any better promo of "Dynamix" here - the game which I've once talked about, but I still can't... That indeed is worth playing!

:sad:

^^ My computer isn't really built for it either but there is still some fun to be had. Out of the city builders that I've tried, it is honestly one of the best.

I finally got a PC that is capable of running JC3 and my god is it excellent. Exceptional graphics, amazing gameplay, questionable voice actors and a villain who is utterly mental. Perfect.

I did enjoy their marketing approach that was essentially "we blatantly ripped off the SimCity series but in this game the map is big and you don't have to cooperate with people".
"Careful man, there's a beverage here!"

Ta-da! The "Dynamix" gameplay. I've talked about this game several times. :)
