Let's pare this down a bit, shall we?

___________________________________________________________

Ratchet and Clank: Into the Nexus PS3 -- Fun, but short and barely satisfying. A shadow of former R&C games!

Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII PS3

Bravely Default 3DS

Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze Wii U

Dark Souls II PS3 -- I hardly played it. Think I got too much into my next entry!

Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn PS4

Metal Gear Soild V: Ground Zeroes PS4 -- Not interested in an over-priced demo. Bring on Phantom Pain!

CastleVania Lords of Shadow 2 PS3

inFAMOUS: Second Son PS4

Deception IV: Blood Ties PS3 -- Tecmo needs to learn how to make these game more fun and less like one, big, long tutorial.

The Witch and the Hundred Knight PS3 -- Broken from the start. Never fixed! Shame on you Nippon Ichi!

Mario Golf: World Tour 3DS

Kirby Triple Deluxe 3DS

Child of Light Wii U

Ultra Street Fighter IV PS3 -- Ah, Ultra Street Fighter, I hardly knew ye! Your ass is mine on PS4 though!

Valiant Hearts: The Great War PS4

Warriors Orochi 3: Ultimate PS4 -- Good game but Samurai and Hyrule were better!

Destiny PS4

Mario Kart 8 Wii U

Hyrule Warriors Wii U

Natural Doctrine PS4 -- Not the SRPG revival it promised to be. Far from it.

Super Smash Bros. 3DS

Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call 3DS

Samurai Warriors 4 PS4

Shadow Warrior PS4 -- Another fun game, but my love for this type of FPS was left back in the 90's.

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare PS4

Fantasy Life 3DS

Bayonetta 2 Wii U

Dragon Age: Inquisition PS4

Grand Theft Auto V PS4

Far Cry 4 PS4

I have some big games to finish first before doing my GOTY, so mine will be some time away. But I love reading these. Time for my leo predictions.

Dragon age is a no since I dont think you have played it much. You have been playoing Far Cry 4, I think you will like it but probably not GOTY. Persona Q now that is a Leo game, that is top 3. I am not sure how much you like Smash, I think the 3DS version ruined it for you. Valiant Hearts you probably liked a lot. Oh Binding of Isaac, yeah that will be on the list for sure. How much Bayonetta 2 did you play, or diablo 3? Destiny you enjoyed but I dont think you got into it as much as I did, I doubt you even did a raid, no chance that is at the top. Oh you liked Fantasy Life, I can see that high up.

So far so good. Nyaa

infamous has to go. Smash 3ds will be removed soon. Wolf amoung us, bye. Mercenary Kings, no. Call of Duty, zero chance. Mario Golf, its golf. Castlevania no.

FFXIV will probably get a spot in the ten. Lightning for sure. Bravely Default too.

Hmmm, this is a tough year for me.  There's no clear winner like Borderlands 2.

Bah I was wrong about Fantasy Life, I mixed you up with Robio? Raven? Who was all over fantasy life?

Shovel Knight! Top 10.
