It's been a couple years since I did meaty Game of the Year post. I missed writing about games - particularly about the different was they can excel. So last night, between editing sessions on unannounced projects, I wrote this list for you all. It's a ridiculous list, as anything ranked always is. It's twisty and full of ties, because some games simply aren't comparable and have to learn to be neighbors.
I've included some thoughts on each entry. Please let me know which ones catch your interest!
And if you just want the ranked list, I put it at the very bottom of the post. Skip if you want to spoil yourself. I won't tell.
