The Maximum Boost ten of 2015

If nightmare combat were a genre and souls the best simulation in class then bloodborne would be the arcade sideline - sharper, slicker and quick as pissflaps. This world is brilliant and breathless and bloody as anything.

Carry weight > 9000 mod. Normal difficulty. Pragmatic ability point distribution. I bounced off this game a few times before adhering to the above, but once I found a rhythm and the claws were in they went 90hrs+ deep. A fantastic game.

2015's sandiest box was also my favourite sandbox to scurry around in. The moment to moment instances of planning, scanning and executing an approach to an objective are some of my fondest memories of gaming in 2015.
