Holy crap, I didn't expect to get so many replies...especially since this was just a repost of a blog post ;).
Obviously I fall into the liking Kylo camp and I can't really add much more than my first post. I apologize for not putting a spoiler tag in the title as I didn't really think it needed one, did anyone really not know Kylo was a villain? Also I don't post a lot so I don't know how to go back and edit it :/ (Nevermind, figured it out)

Kylo Ren reminds me of Zuko, from Avatar: The Last Airbender.
This is a pretty good comparison actually, I like it. Although as I said I don't think Kylo will end up getting redeemed. My personal theory is he will end up killing Snoke in the next movie and will end up being the main evil...of course that's based on absolutely nothing ;)

Hell no, Kylo is just a vadar wanna be rebellious teenager. There is nothing deep about him.
And trust mr, Rey is Revan. She was the one attacked Luke and failed. Not Kylo. Kylo is just a cheap substitute.
Unless I'm mistaken, there's about 4000 years between Revan and Luke...
Revan was born on 3994 BBY and Luke on 19 BBY
Also, Revan was canonically male; it was the Exile (KoTOR 2) who was female. Of course, they can ignore all of that and just rewrite Revan but I don't see that happening.
sadly all of that is no longer canon since Disney bought the rights. The whole expanded universe is obsolete. No Star Wars novels, comics, or lore other than Episodes I-VII, The Clone Wars, and Rebels.
From what I understand the KOTOR stuff is inbetween actually being canon and all the scrapped EU stuff. The reason it is in more of a limbo is because all new Star Wars stuff going forward is supposed to be canon and Star Wars: The Old Republic is still ongoing so it's in a weird spot. Certain things from the old republic era are canon though, for instance Kylo's saber is based on an ancient design that was used during "The Great Scourge of Malachor" (the Scourge was also mentioned in the Clone Wars series). The planet of Malachor was first named in KOTOR 2. Basically don't totally write off the old republic stuff yet.
GOTY for each individual console really shouldn't have multiplatform games included. It gets so boring when something like The Witcher 3 (as good as it is) takes GOTY for all platforms it was on including overall GOTY.
@jack007420: One of the best 2D mario games, one of the best multiplayer shooters of the year, and one of best JRPGS in recent years....yeah what a crappy lineup this year :p
@namitokiwa: I have to agree...IMO TW3 is the best game of the year, but Bloodborne is a PS4 exclusive which should put it ahead of the running for PS4 game
