15 Gaming Wishes For 2015

2015 is mere hours away, and that i could not be extra excited to say goodbye to 2014. Quite a lot of things occurred in the course of the year that I preferred, and a whole lot of issues I didn’t. The video games trade has lots to prove after 2014 with quite a few disastrous launches, delays and disappointments. Going ahead into 2015 there are certain video games I'd like to see introduced, sure video games launch, or particular issues occur throughout the gaming trade. These are my wishes for the sport trade; 15 for 2015.









15. Final Fantasy XV in 20XV




This appears nearly impossible seeing as we’re nearly on the 10-yr anniversary of the game’s announcement, but I really feel pretty optimistic Final Fantasy XV may not less than launch in Japan by the time 2015 ends. The fact that we’re getting a gameplay demo in 2015, the big quantity of gameplay trailers launched in 2014, and the fact that the English voice-overs are already completed is sufficient evidence to counsel we’ll be playing Final Fantasy XV sooner than later.









14. No More DDOS Attacks on PSN and Xbox Live




December 2014 was a terrible time to be a gamer. Not only did we have to cope with the buggy launches of DriveClub, Assassin’s Creed: Unity, and Halo: The Master Chief Collection, however we additionally needed to deal with Lizard Squad who sought to damage Christmas for therefore many avid gamers. With no goal or intent, Lizard Squad bombarded PSN and Xbox Live servers with DDOS attacks. This crippled PSN and Xbox Live all through the month, but also on Christmas Day when 1000's of latest PS4 and Xbox One house owners have been unwrapping their consoles. These consoles need firmware update to correctly perform, one thing that can’t be done if the consoles can’t join on-line. We hope that in 2015 this malicious group stays away from PSN and Xbox Live.









13. Assassin’s Creed: Victory to not be a Buggy Mess




Assassin’s Creed: Victory was rudely outed December 2014 as the following Assassin’s Creed recreation, and there’s one factor everyone seems to be considering right now; please don’t be like Assassin’s Creed: Unity. Unity was a damaged wreck at launch. Riddled with bugs, glitches, a Co-Op feature that barely works, and a continuously dipping framerate, Unity is the poster-boy for how to not launch a recreation. True, the expertise has gotten higher with patches, however that’s no excuse for launching Unity within the state it was in. Victory can't obtain victory whether it is in anyway like Unity. Hopefully, with Ubisoft Quebec main development, we won’t should experience an Assassin’s Creed wreck two years in a row.









12. Star Wars: Battlefront to work at Launch




Dice is bringing their FPS expertise to Star Wars: Battlefront Holiday 2015. We can’t wait for them to use their data harnessed over many Battlefield games to create the ultimate Battlefront expertise. You realize which Battlefield sport Dice shouldn’t model Battlefront after? Battlefield 4. Undoubtedly the worst launch of 2013, Battlefield four was a huge mess with quite a few bugs, glitches, and netcode points. Nobody wants to open a brand new multiplayer game at launch and discover out its unplayable. That’s what happened with Battlefield 4 and a whole bunch of games in 2014. In truth, let’s make 2015 the opposite of 2014 and have each sport work correctly at launch, please!









11. Red Dead Redemption 2 Revealed




Grand Theft Auto V is out on PS4, Xbox One, PS3, and Xbox 360, and the Pc version launches in January. With that out of the best way its time to head back to the old west. Rumors concerning one in all 2010s finest games have been circulating for a while now, and its about time Rockstar reveals Red Dead Redemption 2 Collectibles Dead Redemption 2. We all know its occurring, and with all versions of Grand Theft Auto V out in the wild the time has never been more proper. We may be ready years for the sport to finally hit store shelves, but better realizing now then being left in the dead of night.









10. God of War IV Teaser




On the PlayStation Experience we learned that a brand new God of War recreation is in growth, but that we might need to wait another yr. However, that doesn’t mean we won’t get a teaser. God of War III’s teaser trailer went reside June 2008, a full two years earlier than the sport hit retailer shelves. It’s been five years since we’ve gotten a correct God of War game, and many are itching to know what’s going to occur in Kratos’ next outing. Hopefully we’ll get a few hints in 2015.









9. Pokken Tournament Coming to North America and Europe




Nintendo and Bandai Namco shook the world of Pokemon in 2014 with the announcement of Pokken Tournament, a model new preventing sport. Obviously there was lots of excitement over this cross-over, till we came upon that it was going to be Japan-only. Even worse, it could only be launched in arcades. We’re hoping that Nintendo and Bandai Namco announce this recreation for the Wii U, and that will launch in North America and Europe.









8. Nintendo Announces the brand new Wii U




The Wii U can’t compete with the PS4 and Xbox One as is. Basically a PS3/ Xbox 360, the Wii U got here too late, and regardless of having the most effective first-social gathering lineup in 2014, has did not sustain with PS4 and Xbox One. It’s time for Nintendo to get on, or at the least close to Sony and Microsoft’s stage. The brand new Wii U might be a game changer with more energy, a new elegant design, and the adoption of a extra traditional controller. Perhaps it could be enough to draw back third-get together publishers. We can’t expect a new console yet, however an update (like the new 3DS) might flip around the Wii U’s fortunes.









7. An End to PS3, Xbox 360 Support




This could appear slightly egocentric, but I actually need help for PS3 and Xbox 360 to end. It’s not that I don’t like the methods. I really like them both and have cherished my time with both, however it is time for the business to maneuver. Continuing improvement on these old techniques continues to carry back games like Call of Duty, Destiny, Battlefield, and far Cry. Developers can’t properly make the most of the additional power in these new consoles if they’re being tied down by PS3 and Xbox 360. Now, builders can make final-gen exclusive video games like Assassin’s Creed: Rogue, however cross-gen growth needs to cease in 2015.









6. Batman: Arkham Knight Meets Expectations




Expectations for Batman: Arkham Knight were already high before the game was delayed to June 2, 2015. Now, expectations are even larger. With all this additional time, we’re hoping for the most polished, visceral, and grand Batman expertise ever. Batman: Arkham Knight appears to be like set to meet these expectations due to a considerable amount of secrecy surrounding the sport. Despite being a high profile recreation, Rocksteady has been very careful about how much information we get out of every trailer and press launch. The story, Gotham City, the Arkham Knight and Scarecrow’s plans remain wrapped in secrecy, and it will be unwrapping those secrets that’s going to make Batman: Arkham Knight hard to put down.









5, Call of Duty 12 takes us Back to World War II




Back in 2007 we have been all bored with World War II, and the leap to Modern Warfare was fresh and exciting. The alternative is true in the present day. We’re tired of Modern Warfare and semi-Future Warfare. It’s time for FPS video games to strive something new, by going into the past. Rumors have been floating around for some time now that Treyarch’s subsequent Call of Duty recreation would return to World War II, one thing I very a lot hope for. We need a change, and generally that change could be discovered by returning to your roots.









4. No More Remasters….




2014 obtained a cross as a result of not a lot of unique content material for PS4 and Xbox One was being released until the ultimate quarter of the yr. 2015 is totally different, because now we’re starting to see growth for these new platforms ramp up. There’s no must see groups waste their time to deliver games just a few years outdated to these new consoles. Already we have DmC: Devil May Cry Definitive Edition, Devil Mary Cry 4: Special Edition, Saints Row IV: Re-Elected, Dead or Alive 5: Last Round, and Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster amongst others. Now there are some exceptions for video games that were only released on one platform (Resident Evil Remake HD), or video games you can’t get anymore as a result of they’re so outdated (Grim Fandago: Remastered). Apart from these few exceptions, sufficient is enough!









3. But Uncharted and Gears of War Collections Could be Nice




A bit hypocritical perhaps, however at the very least two Uncharted games and one Gears of War recreation could use some severe updating. Both Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune (2007) and Gears of War (2006) are horribly outdated in comparison with fashionable requirements. It would be cool to see these games redone with trendy gameplay and graphics. Uncharted: Golden Abyss (2012) was launched on the PS Vita. Seeing it remade for PS4 would be sweet as pie. Personally, I’d love to see the collections bundled together ala Halo: The Master Chief Collection. Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection and Gears of War: The Locust War Collection would be so cool to have.









2. Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End, Halo 5: Guardians, and The Legend of Zelda U to be Amazing




Uncharted 4, Halo 5 and The Legend of Zelda would be the poster-youngsters for the PS4, Xbox One and Wii U all through 2015. All three will launch in time for the Holiday, and also you guess folks will be trying to tear them down. PS4 lovers will attack Halo and Zelda, Xbox lovers will assault Uncharted and Zelda and Wii U lovers will assault Uncharted and Halo. Why? There’s no benefit to tearing down any of the three games. All three games are going to be superb, and if there was any 12 months to try to get all three consoles then 2015 is that yr.









1. E3 2015 is for the Gamers




Something I preferred about E3 2014 is the robust focus the large three had on players. Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo all centered on delivering the video games that we, the players, want to play. Other than Sony getting just a little sidetracked, E3 2014 ended up being one of the higher exhibits in years. Let’s keep that up going into E3 2015.
