Message: [QUOTE="BinaryMessiah, post: 28937, member: 115"] 2015 was ten years ago. Many people probably grew up playing these exact games at this time. It was the beginning of "The Next Generation" as we know it today. Moving away from the janky era of HD gaming. The Wii U was nearing its end, while the PS4 and Xbox One were still in their infancy. Here's a list of all the games that came out in 2015. It was a monster year, and I clearly remember people saying gaming was dead that year. [LIST] [*][SPOILER="List of Games"] [LIST] [*]The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt [*]Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain [*]Rise of the Tomb Raider [*]Ori and the Blind Forest [*]Dying Light [*]Fallout 4 [*]Halo 5: Guardians [*]Bloodborne [*]Rocket League [*]The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited [*]Until Dawn [*]Super Mario Maker [*]Yoshi's Woolly World [*]Destiny: The Taken King [*]Soma [*]Starcraft II: Legacy of the Void [*]Her Story [*]Forza Motorsport 6 [*]Splatoon [*]Axiom Verge [*]Titan Souls [*]Xenoblade Chronicles X [*]The Order: 1886 [*]Star Wars Battlefront [*]Mortal Kombat X [*]Battlefield: Hardline [*]Call of Duty: Black Ops III [*]Project Cars [*]Need for Speed [*]Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward [*]Disgaea 5: Alliance of Vengeance [*]This War of Mine [*]Prison Architect [*]Galactic Civilizations III [*]Skullgirls 2nd Encore [*]Tearaway Unfolded [*]Rare Replay [*]Kirby and the Rainbow Curse [*]Gears of War Ultimate Edition [*]God of War III Remastered [*]The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D [*]Xenoblade Chronicles 3D [*]Heroes of the Storm [*]Undertale [*]Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns [/LIST] [*][/SPOILER] [/LIST] I was looking at this list and was shocked at just how many heavy-hitting games came out that year. Not all of them are stellar, but the names alone, all being released in the same year, just aren't what you see today. To put it into perspective more, the Switch wasn't even a concept in the public's mind yet. We were all holding our breath, hoping this year would make the Wii U the console we had all wanted. Mobile gaming was taking off. Samsung had just released the Galaxy S5 and Apple the iPhone 6 a few months prior, and this was the decline of proprietary handhelds from Sony and Nintendo, and we didn't even know it yet. The Vita was slowly dying off at this point. Nvidia had just released the GTX 900 series cards. Intel the Haswell i 4000 series CPUs. What games did you play or were excited for? What was your current mindset in the landscape of gaming at the time? I had a PS4 and Xbox One and had sold my Wii U the year before in 2014. I didn't have a gaming PC until later in the summer. I remember Soma's story blowing me away. It's still one of the best video game stories ever told. I was also neck deep into retro collecting at this point. I still have The Witcher 3 installed on my computer and have not finished it. I just recently started a new save. I played pretty much every AAA title that came out that year and enjoyed them all.
