Best PlayStation 3 Game of 2015 - Article

Tweet

Just like the Xbox 360, the PlayStation 3 is an aging giant. It's now almost 10 years old but it's still receiving notable video game releases, from entries in major IPs like Metal Gear Solid to other notable (and occasionally surprising) Japanese releases. And it's this Japanese support which, as well as dominating this year's nominations list, will likely see the PlayStation 3 featuring in at least one more set of Game of the Year Awards.

The Nominees:

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain

Tales of Zestiria

Yakuza 5

Atelier Shallie: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea

And the Winner is...

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain

Community's Choice - Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain (42% of the votes)

A last minute attempted coup caused by the unexpected release of Yakuza 5 wasn't enough to steal the crown away from Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. Kojima's final Metal Gear Solid game certainly didn't disappoint, and comfortably won both the official VGChartz PlayStation 3 Game of 2015 as well as the Community's Choice Award.

I don't think multiplatform games should be included in these. Games like MGSV are just gonna wreck everything all around.

That does not make sense and is not fair. Why should exclusive games be advantaged? The award is for best PS3 game, not exclusive.

Because otherwise you could potentially have one game just suck up every "Best of [Console]" award and we'd be left with one game instead of several. I would instead propose a "Best of [Console]" list followed by a "Best Multiplatform" award.
