HMs to 13 Sentinels and Clubhouse Games which I only recently bought and haven't had time to play them yet.

DM to TLoU2, would be 11 I guess, but ultimately was too disappointed by it.

Also holy shit, thanks to the people in this topic informing me about Desert Golfing 2/Golf on Mars.

Racing games are one of my favorite genres, so this'll be a long list.

• Forza Motorsport 4
• Gran Turismo 4
• Burnout 1
• Burnout 3: Takedown
• Beetle Adventure Racing (N64)
• Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2 (PS2)
• Rush 2049 (N64)
• Midnight Club 2
• Midnight Club 3
• SSX Tricky
• SSX 3
• F1 2019
• Blur

GOTY 2020

The last 3 I haven't put a ton of time in, so the order could move around as I get back to them, but Godfall seems a lot of fun for what it is, and is definitely a "Jason-game".

Not at all. The Witcher 1-3 are some of my favorite games of all time, and now Cyberpunk 2077 is a contender for my GotY.

They should probably think about rearranging some of their upper management, though...

Game has been running beatifully since launch day for me.

Ryzen 3700x, RX 5700 XT, 32 GB RAM, on an interal SSD. 1080p on mostly Ultra settings.

Haven't been tracking fps, but always looks smooth to me, even in high density areas. Have not had a single crash after 25 hrs (AC Valhalla, on the other hand, has frozen 4 or 5 times now in 22 hours, requiring me to force quit the game).

One of the most beautiful and consistently jaw-dropping games I've ever played.

Thank you for this! My first time going to any PAX, so this is extremely helpful.

More Crusader Kings 2 or Europa Universalis IV.

Alternatively, you, Alex, and Austin should play a multiplayer game of Civ V.

@shinboy630: Yeah, I'm really enjoying it. Not sure I like it as much as Circle, though.

New The Dear Hunter album last week, too, for anyone interested. Act Iv: Rebirth in Reprise, some good stuff on there as always.

These were the main games I remember from that year.

• Gran Turismo 4 (the first realistic racing game I really got in to. I had GT3 but didn't play it that much. After this, I switched to Forza, though)
• Timesplitters Future Perfect (one of my favorite FPSs, the first I played online, too)
• God of War (2 improved on it in every way, but the first was still a memorable experience)
• Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition (one of my favorite racing games. I played this so much, including the online, which was amazing)
• Civilization IV (Civ is one of my favorite series ever. My dad and I got a 6600GT for our computer so I could play without the nightmare faces and black terrain. My first time upgrading a computer.)

Other great games that didn't have quite the same impact:

• Project Snowblind (I should replay this. I remember it being a FPS with some Deus Ex-like abilities. One of the guys should play this on UPF sometime. It's an underrated game)
• Burnout Revenge (not as great as Burnout 3, but still great)
• Star Fox Assault (hey, I enjoyed it)
• Ratchet: Deadlocked (didn't have the magic of the earlier games, but I was still happy to have more Ratchet)
• Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney (I'd have put this up above since I love the PW games, but I don't think I actually played it in 05. It was probably a year or two later)
