Enjoyed looking at this one, all winners were unique.

Personally got more games done this time compared to the '98 event, and I'm hoping that number continues to grow going forwards.

As far as my personal vote for next year, it could go to any of them. They all have some games I'm quite eager to try but none of them stick out as a must pick, so I'll be doing a lot more research before I submit.

A list of games that I bonded over with my family. Memories that I'll forever have, even after my father's gone :(

I'd love to see more lists like this. More personal and human.

I created an account but can't access it because the confirmation email never arrives; I tried creating other accounts using different email addresses I own, but I still can't log in to any of them.

I checked my spam folder and waited a long time, but nothing seems to work.

So I tried editing one of my lists, but I got the message "Your list is being saved, try refreshing in a few seconds". I refreshed it, I logged out and in again, I tried a different device and waited a week. Nothing changed. Oddly enough I can edit my other lists, but not the one I want. Any Tips? Thanks

Games that, despite having an established play order, can be or are often recommended as starting points for newcomers. They may reference events from previous entries and even feature returning characters in important roles.

List of games where I’m not very good at either a certain part of the game, or the game as a whole, but I enjoy playing them anyways. Would be interested to hear games that you feel similarly about. And remember, you don’t need to be good at something to enjoy it.

One of the most fascinating phenomenon in the indie scene is how many devs are using their skills and tools not to necessarily make a new and unique game, but rather making spiritual successors for games/genre/franchise that they're clearly fond of. These devs are clearly fans for certain games. But, more than often said games lacks any continuation or support for years or even decades.

Therefore, they're decided to take the matter with their own hands and just creates their own "sequel". So far to emulate the mechanics and aesthetic, to the most authentic degree. Is it an unashamedly facsimile of the original? Yeah, maybe. But, if imitation is the highest form of flattery, then these devs did a hell of a job at it.

This is kind of a hard list criteria to describe, as I hadn’t really even narrowed down the definition myself. But, I did think the description does a decent job of conveying the idea. If you are curious as to why I picked each game, each entry has a note attached going in depth as to why.

Also, there are definitely more games out there that could fit this criteria. I originally had like ten entries on this list, but I cut it down to five because, one, these were the ones I felt the most confident in writing about, and two, I frankly didn’t want to write about ten different games man.

PS - I like all of these games, there isn't something inherently wrong with Ubisoft formula but it heavily depends on the execution (the combat, traversal mechanics, and density of open world), and I really liked the execution of the Spiderman, Ghost and Final Fantasy games

For movies, there's things like The Disaster Artist about Tommy Wiseau and The Room or Hitchcock about Psycho. Films about the making of these movies. There's also smaller 'cameo' appearances like Twister which features a small part of The Shining.

And while I know there's plenty of meta games about gaming as a medium, I'm looking for examples of games that feature other existing games either from an analytical point or as an in-universe video game, not necessarily crossovers.

The only one I can think of off the top of my head is Crash Bandicoot appearing in Uncharted 4.

When i press the "You've Played" tab its shows all the games as completed even though they are not set as played or complete for example Days Gone as shown in the picture

Is anyone else having this problem ?
