With the year winding down, the United States and European PlayStation Blogs have opened voting for the best PlayStation games of 2015 in a variety of categories.
Voting will end at 11:59pm PT on December 31/7:59am GMT on January 1, with the winners being announced in early January. A couple of stipulations say that “nominees are limited to games that have never appeared on a PlayStation platform before” and “if a game has won for a specific category in a previous year, it’s no longer eligible to win in that category this year.”
An example of that last point is Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End. It won Most Anticipated game last year, so it isn’t eligible for the award this year.
Additionally, if your favorite game in a specific category isn’t listed, you can write it in at the bottom of each form in the Other section.
