Forgot who was asking for the date but Torment: Tides of Numenera has been delayed to 2016, apparently.

Well, that about does it. With Fallout 4 and Tomb Raider being released tomorrow (11/10) and Star Wars: Battlefront getting mediocre reviews, all the 2015 games that we were anticipating have now officially come and gone.

On to 2016!

Meh. The Wii U is all but dead; I know some of you are looking forward to X, but I'm personally looking forward to the FFTactics clone, Stella Glow for 3DS, too and it's not on there.

X is nowhere near the magnitude of Fallout, MGSV, Witcher 3 or Tomb Raider, so I figured I would just leave niche games off the list from now on.

Oh ok. Yeah I was just wondering if you were interested in the game as well. X will very likely be my last Wii U game that interests me much, I think Zelda will be cross gen game with an NX version so I'll just go with that version.

Why the hell is XCOM 2 not on this list?!

That is easily my #1 game of 2016 until probably summer.

Speaking of which Tomas, play X Com Enemy Unknown. It's not anywhere near as good as the older ones, and you disgust me as a fellow PC gamer, but that game is pretty rad.

You're only allowed to recommend Platinum games until I play W101. Which ultimately bested the other in your estimation, Valkyria Chronicles or Enemy Unknown?

Valkyria Chronicles is easier to cheese, but it's sheer mission variety gives me a massive nerd boner. Plus the mechanics and systems in that game are so fucking unique, where as X-Com is pretty much dumbed down X-Com, which believe it or not to this day, would still be a bitchin ass game. And because I was able to name my commander McDuckyswag, and name my squad members classy names like Kim Possible, Raven Symone, Lizzie McGuire SirSpankDatAss, MaxwellMcKillagoon, and all that jazz it adds a lot to the playthrough. It feels built for you to tell your own stories, the way PC turn based strategy games should. The plot is always going to be aliens invaded, who fucking cares. But the story of how your ace sniper Lizzie McGuire had 3% chance of landing a crucial critical to spare Maxwell, or else he was fucked and the entire mission is ruined, and SHE FUCKING GOT HEADSHOTS LIKE A BEAST is legend my friend, LEGEND!

Throw in shit like Ironman mode, and you get a more gratifying strategy game than Valkyria Chronicles, while not nearly as unique or as varied in terms of its mission design. So my heart would pick Valkyria Chronicles, but my head would pick X-Com.

I'm trying to save you before Philip makes you play garbage like Fallout 4 or something. Help me, help you.

Wait I just remembered, isn't your pre-historic PC basically useless now?

Sounds like it's a tie tbh.

DirectX dicked me over, but yeah the latest wave of releases are beyond my PC regardless of shitty planned obsolescence strategies.

It's time for a new PC, suffering an entire generation of 30 faps playstation games sounds gross.

My GameStop Wish List:

Damn, that's a whole lotta Playstation!

To be fair, not pictured is Fire Emblem Fates Special Edition...

...but also Street Fighter V and Dying Light Enhanced Edition...  Nyaa
