This is mainly to help myself keep track of the things I've been playing this year. While I expect a majority of these games will have come out in 2017, I'll be digging through my backlog as well.

1/4/17 A really gorgeous and well scored game, the music really fits well. While I didn't love the games story, I enjoyed it's humor and some of the places it went.
1/5/17 I now understand why people are into Burnout, debating on getting that Elite license...but I'm really not into the some of those events. Makes me want to try the previous in the franchise.
1/5/17 "SUPERHOT is the most innovative shooter I've played in years!"
1/22/17 Surprised how much I ended up enjoying this one. Normally, I'm a sucker for most Pokémon games but after X & Y and Omega & Alpha I was feeling pretty burned out (I feel that the sixth gen is probably the weakest), not to mention I wasn't feeling the new Pokémon at first. But I've come around on pretty much all of it. Some great new designs and takes on old pokes. Also a surprisingly touching story for Pokémon. #ProPopplio
1/26/17 Phew, finally finished it. Can easily say that this game has some of the best designed levels/areas with such gems as The Clockwork Mansion and A Crack in the Slab. It's a shame that the main plot of the game is so "meh" because it has one of the most intriguing worlds in any game. Gonna need a breather after sneaking around with Emily, but I can't wait to do a murder everything run with Corvo.
1/28/17 Gosh, what a story. What starts as something quite tropey and basic goes in some surprising and intense places, all handled exceptionally well. It's a bummer that while mechanically the game feels good to control, it becomes quite repetitive and samey.
1/29/17 Had some pretty low expectations on this one, how good could another "early" batman story be? Let me guess, his parents die? Kidding aside, Telltale's take on some tired Batman traditions was not only refreshing but quite compelling. That, along with some different takes on characters leads to one of the better Batman stories I've experienced in some time. Only gripes are how some choices play out and the ending falling a little flat for me.
