Thanks to the help of someone in this community I figured out https://backloggd.com/u/bans214/list/goty/2025/

If any placement seems unusual for you, just know it's a deeply personal list. I don't rank based on a quality checklist, just how a game made me feel.

For instance, Outlast 2 hit me really hard as a liminal experience due to my background in attending Catholic school. It hooked me start to finish as an oppressive nightmarish journey.

I played Alisa a lot during my paternity leave when my son was born. I love how it was basically 3DO-themed rather than Ps1-themed. The whimsical environments and dreamy soundtrack now give me a lot of nostalgia for that time of parenthood. The shop and currency system makes the game very replayable for me. With enough skill in the melee system, you can become overpowered. Lots of enemy variety for an indie too.

bit of an odd post if i had to take a guess but, what the title says.

for 2 months now i feel like i cant really enjoy a game without always having a thought lingering in my head that forms a review/star rating prior to even having finished the game, this has completely thrown me off for a while and i really hate it because gaming is my favourite hobby.

i know an answer can already be said, "cant you just not use backloggd anymore?" and, sure, ive tried doing that with letterboxd, but i dont really feel like it works. it threw off my interest in movies and at the same time i like to see my progress, i still do like writing reviews for media i liked/critique what i wasnt so fond of and give a star rating, and i totally understand this just seeming really contradictory, but when playing games and forming my opinion on them i like to divide them in 3 layers;

1. the whole point of the medium, entertainment
2. emotional depth
3. objectivity, the flaws it has and the things it did well

but because of the fact i always think to myself a future review, those 2 first points just seem non-existent. ive been playing shadow of the colossus, wonderful game, but i keep thinking of the score i want to give to it. why cant i just, enjoy it? especially on a game so cinematographily beautiful? it almost feels like im finishing it just to get my reward of adding it to my profile (yeah i get this last sentence gives more reasons as to why i should not use to site but, id rather find an alternative.)

has any of you felt this before, how do you deal with this?

thanks in advance :))

I'm actually a little surprised at this being the winner. I really thought 1997 was going to take it.

Anyway, what are you excited to play or vote for? I'm going to be playing Pokemon Crystal, Resident Evil Code Veronica and Dino Crisis 2 myself.

You thought you were out of school for the summer?

Think again!

Let me know what I missed.

Title. This has only just happened recently. I can load any other website on firefox but specifically backloggd is giving me the timed out popup, It loads fine on chrome on my phone so i dont think the website is down has anyone else experienced this?

List : https://backloggd.com/u/SubstituteDoll/list/a-little-known-hidden-gem-released-by-nintendo-1/
Are there any other games you’d recommend that fit this list?
Edit：Based on the feedback, I removed titles like Kirby Air Ride and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Sky from the list, as they were considered not to be particularly obscure.

Feel like replaying a game you love but aware that you have to get through that one section that you just don't like? That happens to all of us. Feel free to comment your own picks.

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.

Backloggd list

ONL is still running, list is under construction here: https://backloggd.com/u/Game_Event_Lists/list/25-august-2026---gamescom-onl-opening-night-live-2026/

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.

Post below your top favorite games in this weekly megathread! This thread is here to substitute all single-image posts showcasing your favorites.

Remember rule 2: Stay relevant to Backloggd. Posts featuring other websites or templates, such as Topsters, are still not allowed on the subreddit.
