2015 was a pretty massive year for games, and it looks like 2016 is going to do just as well. The Witness, Firewatch, and The Division are all looking really good for the first quarter, and are at the top of my personal list. Additionally, Nintendo fans, who had a pretty rough 2015, are getting a solid lineup right out of the gate with Hyrule Warriors, Mario & Luigi, and a Zelda remaster coming back-to-back-to-back.
