The start of a new year, a new beginning, a revitalized vision of the future and new games of course. It is almost mandatory to do this kind of thing so here are my most anticipated games for 2015
Batman: Arkham Knight
Rocksteady is back at the helm of the Arkham Series and they are going out with a bang, guns blazing and whatever swan song euphemism you can think of. I love the Arkham Series, the fluid fight mechanic, the roster of rogues out to kick Batman's teeth in(good luck) and it's faithful adaptation of the greatest superhero ever created.
This time around you have the batmobile at your disposal to traverse a city 3 times the scale of Arkham City. Expect new gadgets to help obliterate anything that stands in your way, Riddler puzzles, and different challenge modes that keeps me coming back for more long after I have finished the story. I just hope that the boss battles is as intense as they were in Arkham Origins (Batman Vs Deathstroke). This has game of the year written all over it and would be included in the elite of my day one purchases.
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain
I am a big Metal Gear fan and it is no surprise to mention this game. Yes I am one of the so called suckers who bought ground zeroes(fan boy). The Metal Gear series has always been the reason for me now and in past generations in buying a playstation console.
Seeing the gameplay videos released in various media outlets, this is the full realization of the series that was previously limited by existing technology at the time. Improved stealth mechanics, build your own base just like in Peace Walker, approach your objective either night or day, new and improved Meta Gear Online. There's ton of content coming to The Phantom Pain that will make a lot of people happy.
Persona 5
One of the most beloved RPG franchises it's a mix of social life simulator and dungeon crawler with a very deep story. In previous series you played as a student who gains the power of Persona. Personas are based from mythology, folklore, fairy tales and even religion. Summon the Mighty Thunder God Thor or smite thy enemies with the Archangel Michael and a 130 more personas. I recommend playing Persona 3 or Persona 4(preferably Golden on the Vita) to get yourself up to speed.
And those are my most anticipated games for the year. What are yours? feel free in writing in the comments below.
