Topic	SHINE's End of the Year/Decade video game lists
ninkendo 12/31/19 12:46:06 PM #1:	Bros it's that time again. I'll be doing the lists I do every year, but also throwing in my favorite games of the Decade because why not. I have the lists pretty much set, but haven't done any of the writeups for them. Since there's so many lists this year I'll try to keep them shorter than I have in the past. I do work today though so the majority of the lists won't hit until tonight and tomorrow morning, but I figured I might as well get the topic up to remind myself to actually do it. 2019 was a year of ton of great games although I wouldn't say a single one was what I would consider to be an outstanding game of the generation. As the last proper full year of this generation of consoles we benefited from developers knowing the hardware and just making good ass video games. We also got to witness the continued resurgence of Capcom which began last year with Monster Hunter World and Mega Man 11, the Battle Royale genre reaching its 3rd stage of evolution and Kojima finally unleashing his load all over everyone. Anyway here's the categories for this year. I'll fill them up with writeups if I have time at work, but if not later tonight TOP 5 OLD GAMES - These are games that didn't release in 2019 or games that got ports/remasteres in 2019 that I played. Remakes do not go into this category TOP 8 GAMES I WISH I PLAYED - Games I had intended to play in 2019 and just didn't have the time to get to. If there's a game you can complain isn't on the main list it's probably in here! TOP 5 HONORABLE MENTIONS - Games that may have been in my top 10 at some point and dropped off, but I still feel like I wanted to at least mention them TOP 10 FAVORITE GAMES OF THE YEAR PRESENTED BY DRAGON QUEST XI S: ECHOES OF AN ELUSIVE AGE - I always call this list my favorite instead of Best because we all have unique tastes and sometimes your favorite games aren't always the best games. Also DQ11 was my 2018 GotY. The Switch version is better in every way, but I only had time to play it for a few hours. Instead of just not really mentioning it, it's presenting this year's category. TOP 15 GAMES OF THE DECADE - I wasn't keeping an active list of this so I had to go back and read through every release of the past 10 years and try to order them. It's probably not perfect, but I'm okay with it as it looks now. This will probably have some honorable mentions as well, but maybe not write ups for them. Also I did limit this to one game per franchise otherwise it might be overrun by a handful of them. TOP 5 MOST ANTICIPATED GAMES FOR 2020 AND BEYOND - There's always more video games. --- https://imgtc.com/i/iJnhdkc.gif https://imgtc.com/i/j45EVGx.png <cite>ninkendo posted [p:932283831] in SHINE's En...
