Every year I collect lists from discords im in and Board 8. Then I total it and reveal the top 10

New Goty lists and edits will stop being counted on 12/25

Its a top 10 (or less if you played less) of 2020 releases (no late pc ports like Horizon Zero Dawn, no straight ports like Castlevania Anni Collection, but remakes like Trials of Mana count)

(a few i've been asked about)
Dragon Quest XI S = no, was eligible last year for switch
Persona 5 Royale = yes
Hades = yes
DLC = yes, specify the name and game its from
Fan Hacks Released specifically for the first time in 2020 = yes
Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition = yes
Among Us = NO, 2018 release that just blew up this year

I just discovered this 2017 game can I list that
please dont, I only count 2020 releases if in doubt ask

What if I don't have 10?
Considering the year I doubt many do, just list however many you can

Do I need to number them?
Yes your #1 game is worth 10 pts so ...yes

But I hate this deadline!
Make a list or don't.

What even came out this year?

eh the only 2020 releases I've even played this year for a significant amount of time are Psykio Shooting Stars Alpha/Bravo (ports/collections), Ketsui Deathtiny (and that's because I imported a physical copy of the japanese version from 2018, I haven't bought the localized version that just came out a couple weeks ago yet), and the Underwater Ray Romano 1 remake. Also I guess I played a few minutes of the PC port of Doom 64, and those Sega 60th anniversary releases.

so I'm going to have to abstain.

Conveniently I just ranked all the games I played this year. Restricting this to 2020 releases...

1. Genshin Impact
2. Hades
3. Lenna's Inception
...wide gap...
4. Soda Dungeon 2
5. Monster Train

Maybe a couple others that I don't care to acknowledge. Most games I played were from a previous year.
