PTE86: Games of 2015 - Part Two

[Neon Ignition]

Here is the second part of this years poll which looks at the upcoming releases for the year ahead.

As with Part One, above is the rest of the list of upcoming key releases across territories in 2015. Feel free to discuss the games coming, what you'll be buying and any off list titles you have your eyes on.

Yakuza Fiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeve!!!!!

Ratchet & Clank, Resi Rev 2, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Tearaway Unfolded.

Also, Captain Toad in PAL land.

[Nu-Eclipse]

Gotta say, it's looking like it'll be all about the Wii U and, to a lesser extent, the 3DS. I certainly wouldn't have said that a year ago, especially where the former was concerned.

Captain Toad, Xenoblade Chronicles X, Splatoon, Devil's Third, Starfox, Zelda, Yoshi's Wooly World, Mario Maker and Kirby and the Rainbow Curse. Impressive. I stand by my criticisms of the Wii U (and it still has many issues) but that admittedly is quite a line-up to look forward to.

3DS wise, I'll be looking forward to playing Majora's Mask 3D (obviously), Code Name: S.T.E.A.M., Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate and finally getting my hands on the second wave of Sega 3D Classics (After Burner II 3D, OutRun 3D, Fantasy Zone 3D, Fantasy Zone II 3D and Thunder Blade 3D). Hoping to have an AUS/NZ New 3DS imported (The FOURTH 3DS model that I've owned! WTF!?) in time for Xmas so that should kick things off nicely in that respect.

All that said, I'd be amazed if 2015 didn't eventually provide me with a reason or two to finally purchase a PS4. Just can't really see it at the moment. Maybe SF5 but I still want to see more of it from Capcom. Uncharted 4 could also swing it for me too.

Pretty much all about the Wii U for me too. Although I cannot wait for Revelations 2 and Yakuza 5 would have been a possibility if it wasn't digital only.

[wakka]

My votes on both lists have been absolutely dominated by WiiU games. So much good stuff due for it in 2015. I've also out in votes for PS4 titles despite not owning one yet, as it'll be a must to own one for MGS5 and Persona 5. Those two are probably my most anticipated titles, followed by Yakuza 5 and Xenoblade 2.

I'm also looking forward to Mortal Kombat X (MK9 was such a blast in 4P and I love the 90s styling and OTT gore), and The Witcher 3.

Then there's also Splatoon of course, which looks brilliant. I'm sort of mentally ruling out Zelda and Starfox, as I just don't think either is realistically going to arrive till 2016.

[Nu-Eclipse]

I'm sort of mentally ruling out Zelda and Starfox, as I just don't think either is realistically going to arrive till 2016.

I'd personally like to think that at least one of them will arrive in 2015, albeit very, very late on. It's arguable that the continuation of the recent goodwill and/or momentum that Wii U has received depends on at least one of Starfox and Zelda getting a 2015 release.

Pre-orders already in for SW Battlefront, Yoshi's Wooly Land, Codename STEAM, MH4U, Xenoblade Chronicles X, Devil's Third.
Yakuza 0 will be a patient wait for it to drop 50% via resellers on Amazon.

Also, SFalls, SRW Z3: Tengoku-hen? I know it's basically me buying it...

[Neon Ignition]

I'll end up with more but the main ones for me next year will be:

-Assassins Creed VI (I know, but Unity was enjoyable enough as I didn't encounter the bugs... though I will likely wait until post launch to see what the word is next time)
-Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 (Or whatever it's called. Weariness is setting in but it's the Treyarch entry and I've enjoyed all theirs. Maybe my last one though)
-Guilty Gear (Not usually fussed with the series but this one looks lovely)
-Just Cause 3 (Always good fun)
-Ratchet and Clank (Always enjoy these, hopefully not too slavish to the original)
-Rise of the Tomb Raider (Very much anticipating)
-Tearaway Unfolded (Definite yes, the original was superb)

[DeathAdder]

I voted for about five games, but Mario Maker is definitely what I'm most looking forward to. That's day one for me. Everything else I'll hold off on until it's cheap.

[kryss]

I hope there's an easy method to exchange levels on Mario Maker.

[PaTaito]

Can you add bloodborne please.

[Neon Ignition]

It's in the Part One poll

Roller Coaster Tycoon World and Screamride should provide some coaster thrills to 2015! I hope RCTW is back to the classic format and not the "free-to-play" horrific abomination that is RCT4 Mobile, ever hungry for real money just to build some rides by ever extending the waiting period.

First it's a few minutes for a facility to be built, then it's half an hour for a new ride. Then it's an hour, five hours, 11 hours, and the number of tickets required to speed up the construction increases in steadily larger increments, like a Fibonacci sequence invented by a total prick.

I also want to stomp on some cities like Godzilla, please.

[kryss]

I believe there is a game coming out that lets you do that. Godzilla.

[QualityChimp]

Hence I ticked that box...
