+BrownTownReviews I really HATE that guy, DC keeps shoehorning him into SO MUCH SHIT, all because Deadpool is a hit for Marvel. That's mostly because he's a self-aware court jester 90s comics throwback that they figured out prints money the more comics he cameos in, and Deathstroke is that but still meant to be taken seriously even though he's the most blase of super-solder infused anti-heroes who peaked back in his family story ark in New Teen Titans. But that's just my opinion, I'm sure someone will flip out over it.
+BrownTownReviews Yeah that was some bullshit, I was waiting for an epic fight. Also waaaay more Scarecrow, which was arguably the best part of Arkham Asylum.
Sounds nitpicky, but the first 30 minutes of The Order, I actually spent going around saying "we don't have those in the UK", "Those are American versions of them". then pondering why London is full of fire hydrants and apartment fire escapes. Just felt like zero research was put into it.
The Order 1886 gave me some sadistic pleasure. I remember a line of 12 people at a store trying to return it a week after release with all of them being turned back.
+Kraut and Tea I told the guy at gamestop(that wouldnt stop trying to sell me this shit) how bad it was going to be as i was trying to buy the hitman trillogy for cheap, a fan boy behind me tried actually defending the game he was lost after I told him that CGI trailers aren't games. Alex jones was right about something This gen is brainwashed.
I liked The Order 1886... In 2017... when I only picked it up for about $4.00 in the PlayStation Store. I liked Until Dawn....Wen I played it in 2017 for free. See a pattern here? Lol.
“The Order 1886” had a REALLY cool story! The graphics were gorgeous also. The gameplay wasn’t bad, it just had the potential for so much more, especially after all the cool set ups of immortal round table warriors, werewolves, and vampires. If there was a game that needed a sequel, it was this one!!!
Razor Im sure you would love to know Kojima blowed some of phantom pain's budget konami gave him to make his own brand of sunglasses during mid production. That wasnt even a tie-in to the game itself. Thats what sold me that the phantom pain was going to be an absolute trainwreck. I had to do a double take back in 2015 when a japanese journalist published the article.
Arkham Knight was a huge step backwards in terms of gameplay and story. But that Riddler stunt completely turned me off from even finishing the game. Sorry, comeback after you complete more bullshit, Batman... bye bye.
+Prince Revolver The mere fact they had to pleathered the games total length for series of aggravating puzzles of collectition overkill was an insult on it's own. While trying to desperately get you to justify in paying for sub-par mini story quests that were shorter than a 14 minute Maiden song along with boring racing time puzzles was laughable at best. All with a collective price tag of $30, this game should of been considered offensive to most Batman fans.
Oh shit! A game I liked is on this list and high up on it! Well shit, it's ALMOST like these lists are someone elses opinion. AND Almost like he brings up valid points about why he does not like the fucking game that I totally agree with and look at that I STILL like the game. So, think about that before you thumb doww and sperg the fuck out in the comments
As much as I liked MGS5, you're god damn fucking right it isn't a 10/10. Not even a 9. It was just an unfinished mess of a game, no thanks to Kojima and Konami's kat fight. It reminds me of how fucked the ending to Mass Effect 3 was, except Bioware fucked their game up on purpose.
+The Rageaholic I prefer console at heart(because physical copies)but I find the PC is making consoles more irrelevant because of how compromised they are now. They can do all this shit that(I dont care about) my PC can do way better including having decent games. 2015 was indeed shit for gaming. And thank you for shitting on MGS5. I played that game thinking that the finish was gonna be good when it just ended worse than Undertaker vs. Lesnar.
Fallout 4 at the very least deserves an honorable mention for its thoroughly backwards design decisions and Bethesda's refusal to treat their players like they have any intelligence whatsoever.
I've put in quite a few hours in Fallout 4 this many years later and I still find it an enjoyable game. Granted, they could have done so much more with the settlement building and Garvey could have been less annoying of a meme.
True story about EA Battlefront, when I criticized it for having less content as it won't have more Force Awakens and more importantly no Clone Was. One guy said that he's glad that the Clone Wars isn't in the game saying "it's the boring part of the old games" Despite the fact it's just the same 4 classes with different skin, it must have a suck for the Clone Wars to give extra content (Naboo, Jedi Temple, Felucia, Geonosis, Kashyyyk, Mustafar, Mygeeto, Utapau), the extra heroes and villians are too messy (Mace Windu, Ki-Adi-Mundi, Aayla Secura, Darth Maul, Count Dooku, Jango Fett, and General Grievous)
+Nam Nguyen I guess less is more nowadays to some idiots out there? Clone wars part being absent is was what made me not buy this game altogether along with no campaign and a ridiculous $50 season pass price tag ,WTF???
+DANTASTIC MANIA What's worse that the game doesn't even take advantage of the new stuff from the Original Trilogy i.e Star War Rebels, it would have been bitchin' to play as the Inquisitor, or Kanan or Ahsoka Tano, and no Chewbacca, Yoda, Ben Kenobi, Badass Sidious with his lightsaber!?! Of all the Top 5 turds, this game hurts me the most, I traded that game in for Black Ops 3, sure it's recycled boring trash but at least it's more complete than Battlefront, and it keeps my cousins occupied.
EA Battlefront clearly suffered from being post-Lucas. The first two were these insanely geeky games with everything possible thrown into them, then the whole Expanded Universe gets thrown away. At the very least, they were going to have to scale everything way back.
I'm surprised Tony Hawk didn't make the list. I loved that series and the fact that they want full retail price for the insult that is Tony Hawk 5 blows my mind. Just "How?"
Stuff like that is why I keep my SNES around since 1997/98 and rather return to some 16 bit stuff and try to find something out of that library I don't yet possess
I see those poor fuckers pop up occasionally, I think it's a sort of abused spouse kind of thing, that or they don't want to admit they sunk so much faith into a game that turned out to be shit.
+trahapace150 Behold the aspergers laden creep, who due to being shunned out of social gatherings, has divined it normal and acceptable to compare video games to spousal abuse. i'm sure you're swimming in friends pal.
bruce livingston because , like I imagined, that person has never played better games like "uncharted", "gears of war", "spec ops the line", "GTA5", "putting your dick in a toster", the game has good ideas , great potential and gorgeous graphics, but it wasted it all, you varely get to use the creative weapons, the level and enemy design is the most basic I have ever seen , the stroy is simple but tries to sound complex with too much dialogue. Finding somebody that has played those games and likes the order is equivalent to finding somebody that has eaten burgers in over 100 different places and sais that mcdonalds is among his favorites
2015 was pretty much the year that solidified the idea to me that AAA titles aren't even worth looking into (unless you consider Xenoblade Chronicles X, Tales of Zestiria, and Super Mario Maker to be AAA titles these days). I had immensely more fun playing things like Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 3 and Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax than I did for literally every AAA title that I played that was released in 2015.
+DarkFlice Hell, most of the year I just played my old games like the first KotoR and Morrowind. Games like Xenoblade Chronicles X, while not perfect, showed that there was a lot of love that went into that game and felt like a better Western RPG than Fallout 4. Which is fucking crazy considering that Xenoblade is a JRPG! Overall, 2015 was not a bad year in gaming, it just was not a good one. With how terrible last year was people think this year is so great because the industry did not shit itself as hard as it did last year. Games like Splatoon, Bloodborne, Xenoblade Chronicles X, Mario Maker, a plethora of indie games made by people with some actual fucking passion for video games, and even Halo 5 (not as good as 4, yes I liked 4, but was still better than what Bungie has been doing for the past 2 years). Unfortunately, there was far too much shit out this year that actual good games took a back seat...as usual.
Hovis Steve Well, if you're going to say that it's overrated, I would really like some elaboration, because most game critics scored it somewhere around a 7.5-8.3/10, which is around where I would expect a game that I would call 'good' to fall. I could see you saying it's overrated if it got the same scores that Resident Evil 5 got (mostly 8.5-9/10 for something that I would argue was a spit in the face to Resident Evil fans, and really only made to kill off Wesker), but XCX falls right where I would expect it to fall in terms of how it's rated.
Felt like more of a list of most over rated games then worst. I'm not going to call you contrarian because you're not, but I think you were trying to balance the scales more than call out the worst games released this year. The Order and Until Dawn were the only ones that belong on this list
+JrIcify - Bullshit. I said at the outset: "This was the year Triple-A broke down and Indie broke out." The overhyped games WERE the worst games of the year. Without question.
+EarFarce4 If it was most brazen games of 2015 it would. But there are much worse examples of what makes all of these games bad lower down the vgcharts list.
+ALJustice0 Then Ubisoft had the balls to say they were shocked when Syndicate had poor week one sales. You mean to tell me a franchise that has been known to have game-breaking glitches when it's released every year is now starting to feel the effects of diminishing returns? Who in hell would have ever thought?
+Kyle De'Larouche Similar Victorian/Dickensian aesthetic, similar theme of being a hunter of monsters (although, in the case of the Snoredor, that was blatantly false advertising), infusion of occultism/strange technology into the setting, gameplay that verges in polar opposite directions in all regards.
Loved the video, although personally I really enjoyed Until Dawn and Star Wars Battlefront. Keep doing you Razorfist, I'm realising more and more than your views don't need to match my own for them to be thoroughly enjoyable...although seeing you shit on a game I don't like is undeniably enjoyable!
You just gotta love Razörfist. He never fails to deliver something so edgy, you'll cut your finger by clicking on it. Putting MGSV on the top 5 turds list, never mind #2 on the list. He truly lives up to his name.
***** Hey hey hey - no need to get aggressive. I really like your channel. If you haven't seen it, I proclaimed why I like your channel so much on your Star Wars video. That comment had quite a few likes, IIRC. I have never called you "edgy" before, but I always guessed that's what you try to be to a certain extent. I mean you put a giant freaking razorblade on the screen and call yourself "Razörfist". I liked your MGSV review. I even agree with you on quite a few things, but I don't think it deserves a place on a "Top 5 Turds of 2015" list. I don't feel the need of disproving your points, because I agree with quite a few of them, but not all of them. If I were to do that, I'd have to write a 10 page comment, and that wouldn't be disproving, but just my opinion. So calm down, please. My opinion is different than yours, and I guess it must've come across as way more negative than I actually intended. All I did was make a small joke about your name and how you never fail to deliver what I like about you. Guess I should've used emoticons/emojis to insure I don't sound hostile, but then you'd probably call me doubly autistic. By the way, was it really necessary to bring the big guns to a comment like mine?
Krispy Kreme just opened a branch in my city, so I'm watching Razorfist with a hot and fresh doughnut and a few big dabs. Could life get better? I think not.
What the? I used to respect your opinions, but it's obvious from your doughnut preference that was a mistake. Kiss this subscriber goodbye you Dunkin Donuts desiring douche-dog.
I'm surprised BFHardline didn't make the list. Also dishonorable mention to Evolve and MKX. Not bad games perse but the microtransactions were shameless.
vcom741 no, it made 2014 look good. true 2015 didn't have tons glitches like 14 but that's because we got less games than 2014 in general and the games were too simplify to cause tons of glitches.
Hopefully 2015 illustrated that hype is almost never a good thing to get into. _Cautious optimism_ is the way to go: Be hopeful that shit works out, but carry a poncho and a gas mask on your person in case the septic tank explodes. Then again, if 2014 didn't drive that point home, what will?
+ImTheDruggernaut 2014 drove that point home for me. I used to have devs that I always trusted to bring a great product, but when destiny came out, that went out the window.
That's pretty good. I personally enjoyed Until Dawn but I will admit there were things about it that disappointed me. I played it once through but I sold it right after. Good video.
If I may make a humble suggestion, Razor... Have you ever thoughts of doing a top 5 Worst Gaming Companies of Modern Times list? I'm willing to bet trying to denote exactly which company is worse than another would be a VERY difficult undertaking. There are many, many similarities between them, to be sure, but you clearly have a thing for ones like EA who buy out game developers and then ruin them entirely. Hmmmm.... On second thought, maybe the list should be the Top 5 Developers EA Fucked Over. Because at this point, there's no shortage of candidates to choose from. Anyway, just a couple of suggestions for possible future videos.
I agree with most of these titles, except with the Phantom Pain. It may be just our tastes being different, but I like that game. And even if it is repetitive, at least it works and tries to do something, while things like Arkham Knight and Tony Hawk's Pro Glitchfest all slide around in the pit of shit, that is called "being unfinished." So I wouldn't necessarily say AAA was dead this year. There's Bloodborne for example. Or the aforementioned Witcher 3, Mortal Kombat X included and some other titles. Of course more people notice the big turds the industry has brought us, since, like actual turds, their smell is more invasive and pushes others aside.
+Black Star Does that mean that Phantom Pain has to be allllllllll about stealth too? Sure, the whole series was about stealth, but people have to try every once in a while at creating something different, don't you think? MGSV was simply a step in the new direction that may not have gone over as well as Konami expected, but it's still a solid game, even if the focus is less on stealth and more on the overworld aspect of it. I agree, that calling it a "stealth game" is silly. What I don't agree with is this thing alone varranting backlash. And hey, f*ck you kindly, I played through two, three, Peace Walker and most of Four too, so ignorance your arse, I'm simply not as stuck believing that all games of a series have to feature the same thing the first few did, meaning I guess I'm more open minded when it comes to changes in the core aspect of the game for innovation, even if said innovation isn't that big, but just gives the game series a new light. Second of all, MGS has "always" been about stealth? Well, colour me crazy, but wasn't this the exact problem with MGS4 when it came out? That it could be beaten as an idiotic 3rd person shooter because the stealth was not as demanding and the non-stealth gameplay was not so bad as to truly force you to use stealth? Not to mention you could also beat all the other metal gears going in loud and dumb, it was simply very hard to do so and more focus was on stealth.
+trahapace150 Well, I wouldn't call it an indie, but nevermind. And of course, everyone keeps biatching about MKX's micropayments. Dumbass, let me ask a question: Do you HAVE to pay for them? Are you in any way forced to pay because you're too bad at the game to pull off fatalities? Or are you simply stupid enough to buy them? No? Well, then what's your frickin' problem? Sure, they are an unnecessary feature but to call the game itself rubbish because it makes pulling off some cosmetic things easier for some stupid rich people, who can't even play the game right is an unreasonable argument. Other games feature closed off sections of the story, like Bioshock Infinite's Burial at Sea chapters or Asura's Wrath, that closed off the entire ending of the game behind a paywall. At least Netherrealm actually gives you more shit with extra characters and skins and if you throw the Goro argument at me, saying he was on the disc, but you had to preorder or buy him to get him, I've been to a retailer one week after the initial release and already, boxed copies had the "Includes playable Goro" sticker plastered onto them, just as it was with Batman: Arkham Origins and Deathstroke. "Ew, we have to preorder it to play as Deathstroke! Oh, wait, we can buy it anyway at no extra cost, we just have to wait a bit. Oops."
2015: The year of hyped games that (unsurprisingly) failed to live up to expectations. Honestly, at this point, anyone who takes a whit of notice of anything about any game pre-launch is just asking for disappointment. The hype is all lies, spin, and Peter Molyneaux's unbridled enthusiasm. One need only glance at the slow moving car wreck that is Tom Clancy's: The Division to see the hype to disappointment process unfolding before our eyes.
+Darkly Tranquil That's kinda the modus operandi of AAA nowadays, isn't it? everyone's blown away by the initial showing of a Triple A game until deal-breaking news/rumors/leaks appear that put on jeopardy the virtue of the game and its creators. it's like nobody learned anything from Fable.
+Darkly Tranquil please explain (bullet points will do). I have been thinking of pre-ordering this as a birthday present for someone and would rather avoid wasting my money if it is going to be bad.
+ Nualaboala Just to be clear, I'm not categorically saying The Division will be bad, merely that the signs are not positive and that too much pre-release expectation is a recipe for disappointment. In the end, the game, like many of the ones Razor listed, will most likely be reasonably serviceable, but fail to live up to all the prerelease marketing. My advice is simply to wait for the game to release and then read/watch the reviews and watch some streams before committing to buy - Don't pre-order. Regarding your request I would suggest that the multiple graphical downgrades, the removal of features like the mobile app, the recent revelation that Brooklyn will not be included at release, and the lack of clarity about exactly what the endgame content will be, are all areas of concern that the game we end up getting may not bear much resemblance to the game that Ubisoft have promoted. All in all, The Division smells suspiciously like Destiny; though I guess you might like it if you thought Destiny was okay.
The only thing that surprised me was that MGS V wasn't number 1, but then I saw your number 1 and said to myself "oh yeah, we all forgot about The Order at McDonalds on 1886 avenue."
I like how he mentioned Danger Close being disbanded because EA disentegrated the Medal of Honor franchise and it wasn't supposed to launch the way it did it 2011
Eagerly awaiting the top whatever arbitrary number Triumphs of 2015. However, I understand if you can't find enough content to fill a top three video for last year
