The PlayStation Awards 2015 were held in Japan earlier today as it celebrated the best games released for the year on PS platforms.

First up there was the User’s Choice Award for both Japan and Asia. The games awarded were: Bloodborne, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, Dragon Quest Heroes and Grand Theft Auto V.
The second award as the Asia Special Award. Only three games got this award. This included: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster and Grand Theft Auto V.
The third award is the PlayStation Network Award. The winners were Minecraft PS4 Edition, Phantasy Star Online 2, and then Final Fantasy XIV.
The coveted Gold Prize are awarded to the games that sold over 500,000 units. The first title was God Eater 2: Rage Blast. The next title to win this award was One Piece Pirate Warriors 3. The third game to win a Gold Prize is Grand Theft Auto V. Next up was Yakuza Zero and then the last title to win this award was Bloodborne.
The last award is the Platinum Prize. These are the games that sold over 1 million units. The first title was Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. The next title to win was Minecraft PS4 Edition and then it was Dragon Quest Heroes
