It has been a big year for gaming. Sony has had a flurry of hardware releases with the release of the PlayStation 4 Slim, PlayStation 4 Pro and PlayStation VR, Microsoft released backwards compatibility on the Xbox One for many Xbox 360 titles as well as hinted about Project Scorpio, and of course Nintendo announced the upcoming Switch console/handheld hybrid.
