Sgt Sphynx's Game of the Year List for 2023

List items

  • I did not come to the Alan Wake games until after I beat CONTROL, a game that is a GOAT for me. Prior to CONTROL, the only Remedy games I had played was Max Payne and Max Payne 2. After CONTROL, I went back and played the first Alan Wake game and then American Nightmare. While the first game had a slow start, the setting and story did grab me. Hell, I even went and played Quantum Break, a great game. RIP Lance Reddick. All that is to say, I was really excited when Alan Wake 2 was announced.

    I don't know if I can adequately describe the joy I felt playing the game. Every callback and easter egg brought a massive smile to my face. I don't think there is a single character that I felt wasn't fully realized. I suppose I should have seen it coming, but the ending caught me off guard. I cannot wait for the next game.

  • A throw back RPG with enjoyable character and a touching plot. Full disclosure, I did back this game and there is a statue of me in the crypt. With that out of the way, the characters are what mainly caught my attention. While I usually bounce between several games while playing before completing any, this game got me to focus on it and play it through to completion to get the true ending.

  • What a surprise this game was, shadow dropped out of nowhere from a developer known for survival horror games. Characters were fun and the soundtrack was great. And while I do play bass guitar, this game showed that I am not great with rhythm games.
