We’ve got the best video games of 2015

2015
A lot of great games released for every console in 2015.  There were AAA titles and indie favorites to choose from, but DPPL has them all! 

We're always getting the newest and best video games for every console.  However, sometimes you don't see them right away because they are so quickly checked out. 

I recommend placing a hold.  Holds ensure that you'll get a game quicker than it will show up on a shelf.

After scouring the Internet's best reviewers and mixing in my own experiences, here are our best videogames of 2015 for each console: 

Metal Gear Solid 5

Playstation 4 Game of the Year:
Metal Gear Solid 5

Kojima's swan song with Konami is maybe the best Metal Gear ever in this open-world, genre-bending action game.  Build mother base by collecting resources from the enemy and explore the ever-evolving world of Metal Gear.

Rise of the Tomb Raider

Xbox One Game of the Year:

The saga of Lara's prologue continues as she wrestles with the trauma of her previous excursion and continues to pursue her archaeologic ambitions. Climb ice mountains and face ancient magicks in the latest and greatest Tomb Raider adventure.
