As 2015 comes to a close, we take a look back over the biggest news and hottest trends in video gaming over the past year. And we're not going to sugar coat it, it's not good. 2015 was a year where we spent months fearing about the future of gaming while watching the demise of the great names of the past. We also had to say goodbye to one of video gaming's all-time great figureheads, Satoru Iwata.

However, where there is despair, there is also hope. as we got some stellar game announcements and signs that developers really do care what the general public thinks about their games. Plus, Mike finally spills his guts on Rise of the Tomb Raider and Greg buys a game he can't play.
