Best played in 2022

Top picks of games I played in 2022.

Elden Ring
Elden Ring
Most anticipated game for many years. Lived up to the hype.
Inscryption: Kaycee's Mod
Inscryption: Kaycee's Mod
I hate cards and I hate roguelikes, but I adore this game.
Hypnospace Outlaw
Hypnospace Outlaw
Soul filled experience that I think about very frequently.
Super Mario Bros. 3
Super Mario Bros. 3
Classic, not much more to say. My favorite 2D Mario game.
Chained Echoes
Chained Echoes
I'm apprehensive about JRPGs but this ended up being one of the few I can say I enjoyed all the way through. Not many games can keep me engaged for 60 whole hours these days.
Devotion
Devotion
Awesome horror experience. Underrated because of its removal from mainstream online marketplaces.
No More Heroes
No More Heroes
Finally played this game after calling it "my favorite game I've never played." Has its issues but somehow rises above them.
No More Heroes III
No More Heroes III
Suda psychosis affects this game far more than its predecessors. All numbered games in this series are near identical in quality to me, but this one edges the others out.
Tekken 7
Tekken 7
Tekken is one of the hardest games I've ever played. Grateful that I was able to spend a few weeks throwing down with my friends. I will never be good, but this game is fun regardless.
PowerWash Simulator
PowerWash Simulator
Found myself looking forward to ending my days with a little power washing. Enjoyed it probably more than one should. Caused some wrist pain.
Lunistice
Lunistice
this cheap little platformer was a really fun use of a few hours. Its style appeals to me greatly.
No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle
No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle
Divisive sequel takes two steps forward and two steps back. Still a lot to like.
Star Fox
Star Fox
Played this game in its entirety for the first time this year. Grew up with this one so I hold it near and dear.
