The 10 Most Important Video Game Moments of 2015

Whoa 2015! Slow down, buddy!

This year went by so fast that you’d need a dose of Jet to avoid missing out on every significant development. Mama Murphy would be proud; though, not even her sight would’ve been able to foresee some the huge moments that took place in 2015. We had corporate buy-outs, monumental technological advances, and even the tragic loss of one of the industry’s legendary innovators. If you blinked one too many times, there’s a good chance you missed something important in the video game space this year.

That’s where we come in, since we’ll be recalling–in no particular order–the biggest gaming events that went down in 2015. Keep in mind that this isn’t necessarily a list of the best video game moments, but rather the events that changed the landscape of video games forever. Check out the gallery below to view the whole shebang.

We found out what the judges thought at The Games Awards last night, but the discussion of which games stood out from the rest in 2015 is one that remains to be had here on Nerdist, so make sure you stay tuned to our gaming countdown lists throughout the remainder of the month.

What was the biggest moment in video games this year in your opinion. Is there an event that took place that you believe belongs on this list. Shoot your thoughts down into the comments below.
