You do need to do these things! Hop to it!

I played like 350 hours of Yakuza in 2021 getting through 3, 4 & 5 and still had to restrain myself from jumping straight into Yakuza 6 :laugh:

More people should play Persona 5 Strikers, it's great

Did anyone else think putting Neo in the title of your game and nothing else sounds too much like a remake? Perhaps one of the reasons it was one of Square's worst-selling games of the year

I should revisit my list and see what didn't rank and what's coming up. I got featured on Life is Strange: True Colors hitting #50 though so that's fun.

Well, I think it�s time that we stopped loving around, friends. It�s all well and good here sitting back and cracking wise as we go through the numbers but this is becoming serious business. We only have 20 games left before we uncover who you have voted your Game of the Year for 2021 and all the heavy hitters are still in the conversation. Will Monster Hunter Rise bring it all home? Has Metroid Dread pulled in enough voters to win? Or is there really no stopping Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker? We�ll find out later but for now here�s your #20!

This is a strong showing for 428 Shibuya Scramble. We just might take it to the #1 spot, Hirsute!

10. Majora's Mask Randomizer (Unranked)
9. Paper Mario: The Origami King (Unranked)
8. Mario Party Superstars (Unranked)
7. Skyward Sword HD (Unranked)
6. Life is Strange: True Colors (#50)
5. Psychonauts 2 (?)
4. Great Ace Attorney Chronicles (?)
3. Metroid Dread (?)
2. Shin Megami Tensei V (?)
1. FFXIV: Endwalker (?)

So half my list is me being a weird hipster (even though they are all mostly AAA titles from well-known places) and the other half is Top 20 Material.

I am a man of extremes apparently.
