I'm going to try the yearly Top 10 thing again, but this time I'm gonna try to sum up my thoughts about each game in roughly one sentence, because nobody has time for explanations! We all have too many games to play or in my case, games you stare at for days telling yourself you should really get around to.

In that theme, here are some games that won't make the Top 10 solely because I didn't play enough of them to make a judgment call yet. They're games I either haven't started or just barely scratched the surface of so far. I do intend to play them, though.

• Judgment
• Fire Emblem: Three Houses
• Control
• The Outer Worlds
• Bloodstained
• Hynospace Outlaw
• Blasphemous
• The Outer Wilds
• What the Golf?

Now for the Top 10 Best Games of 2019 That I Kinda Feel Good About But I'd Probably Change The List Tomorrow If You Asked. Again, gonna try real hard to keep it to one sentence and god damn is that tough when you love to ramble.

10. Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening

For me, this Zelda game falls somewhere in the Majora's Mask tier where the actual dungeons aren't too great, but it does get a lot of mileage out of its style and tone for a charming, if slightly eerie time.

9. Astral Chain

Platinum Games and Astral Chain are both at their best when they're using what they have learned from previous games and experimenting, and both are at their absolute worst when they have terrible mini-games to try to pad the length out.

8. Untitled Goose Game

At least Agent 47 kills you after he ruins everything around you.

7. Baba is You

One of the smartest puzzle games I've ever played, even if I preferred the moments where you could use the rule manipulation mechanic to come up with a variety of solutions whereas the late game puzzles don't really encourage that kind of creativity.

6. FutureGrind

You grind and flip on bizarre future bikes to get giant combos and feel real fucking cool.

5. MLB The Show 19

MLB The Show was always kind of a punching bag of a game for me with its many, many rough edges but 19 is actually a very good baseball game and maybe the A's can win a god damn postseason game in this!

4. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare

Modern Warfare has some really smooth, snappy gameplay that kept me hooked about as much as the series ever has, and has almost made me forget the fact that the PC version was completely unplayable for over a month.

3. Resident Evil 2

A phenomenal remake that captures what worked in the original game in terms of level design and setting, while updating everything to make you feel capable of handling the terrifying things waiting for you, even if you're really not.

2. Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice

Sekiro is just another A+ game to add to FromSoftware's resume, with another fascinating world to explore in terms of lore and layout while diving deep into a new parry-centric approach to their combat that I'm still a little amazed I was able to wrap my head around.

1. Devil May Cry 5

As a fan of Devil May Cry since the beginning, I'm still in disbelief that Capcom actually pulled the plug on the reboot and went back to give me the game I wanted since 2008, and I'm even more stunned after all this time away that they ended up making possibly the best game in the entire series and one of the best action games of all time.

So there's 2019 for ya. And thanks to gross overuse of commas, I could still adequately ramble!

Who knows what fucked up writing tools to abuse 2020 will bring!
