the music slaps. the gameplay is wonderful. it's accessible yet incredibly challenging, but the frustration leads you to want to improve and get through even the most infuriating sections. just all-around fantastic.

Marvel's Spider-Man

2. Marvel's Spider-Man

the webs stick to buildings. spider-man is a cop and ACAB, but i'll let that slide because everything about this game feels great.

Tetris Effect

3. Tetris Effect

this is the most positive and uplifting game i've played in a long time.

God of War

4. God of War

wow this game is pretty. i've disliked every other god of war game i've ever played, but this is pretty interesting and has depth i wouldn't have expected from the series.

Red Dead Redemption II

5. Red Dead Redemption II

man if this had ended when it ended and didn't have those epilogues stitched on it would have probably been the best game i played this year. i felt really invested in arthur's story and how it played out.

Donut County

Assassin's Creed Odyssey

kassandra rulz ok?

Call of Duty: Black Ops 4

8. Call of Duty: Black Ops 4

just a really solid multiplayer shooter. i keep coming back to it.

Monster Hunter: World

9. Monster Hunter: World

i liked this more than every other monhun game i've ever played and i feel bad that it didnt grab me like it grabbed some people, but it's pretty as heck and fun to play

Dead Cells

10. Dead Cells

nice and engaging core gameplay loop - i honestly don't know what bugs me about this other than the fact that i don't care for the look and feel i guess.
