2014 Year in Review

Oh 2014, how glad I am you're finally over, what a shitty year you were for me personally and while there was some fantastic stuff released this year, overall it was mostly a good but not great first full year for the new generation of systems, especially coming off the stellar 2013, but whatever, this is about remembering the good, not the bad, well o.k, maybe some bad. Anyways, on to the list...
