Favorite Game from every year of my life

My Top game for each year I've been alive. I'm going by the dates here on Backloggd for simplicities sake.

1992 - This is the only game I have played from this year , so this game wins by default.
1993 - I remember playing this on my cousins OG Gameboy when he would visit. This game seemed so huge back then.
1994 - As a kid I would play the first two levels over and over to get extra lives for my Dad. Then he would play the hard levels. I still love this game as an adult.
1995 - My middle school friends and I would sit in computer class and compete for the high score.
1996 - I learned to read just so my older brother would let me play this.
1997 - I honestly thought this was the hardest game in the world at the time. I've still never actually gone back and beaten it.
1998 - This game made a star wars nerd out of me for years to come
1999 - As a little kid that was obsessed with playing with his plastic army men, this game was like crack.
2000 - Also Vikki was my first crush
2001 - This was the first game that really made me cry and drew me in with its narrative. I think in some ways this game changed my life. It definitely made me think about life in a deeper way.
2002 - Like I said before, I loved playing with my army men and this let me really live out my fantasy of commanding them. I still think this is the best console RTS.
2003 - I remember visiting my cousin for a month one summer and he had this game. We spent all summer just playing through this campaign.
2004 - This game showed me the possibility that online games held. Even though I didn't have internet on my ps2 I would imagine how cool it would be to play against real people.
2005 - Its more battle front, except better. I will say I like the maps from the 1st game more though. This was my main game for 6 years.
2006 - I like the more down to earth plot of this FF versus most of the others. This is the FF game I probably go back to the most just to play for fun.
2007 - This is another narrative that blew my mind and brought me to tears with its ending. Also one of the few horror games that I like.
2008 - This is my favorite tactical turn based game. I love the art style.
2009 - my family would sit in front of the Wii for hours switching off and playing this.

MAG

2010 - This is the most underrated shooter of all time. I played this non stop for 6 months. I still think about how cool this was on a weekly basis.
2011 - I played this years after it came out, but its still clearly the best TW game, and one of the best strategy games period.
2012 - I bought a ps4 just to play this. Then spent the better part of 3 years playing it almost daily. I was one of the best medics on the ps4.
2013 - I still play this once a year and love it every time. I can't wait for DD2!. Perfect combat.
2014 - A fairly weak year overall, but I did love the movement in this game.
2015 - I have no idea what happens in this game, but I love just chilling with diamond dog and knocking out a town full of dudes by hiding in a box.
2016 - This is the smoothest shooter I've played. I come back to it at least once a year.
2017 - Truly amazing combat
2018 - The best puzzle game ever
2019 - I have played though this 3 times with different people and I just can't get enough. MH Rise just didn't feel the same for me.
2021 - Somehow this managed to be better than Nioh 1 in every way.
2022 - This is the only game from 2022 I've played. Its fun the play in co-op.
