GOTY Over The Years
A listing of every one of my GOTY winners, starting from 1997. Only games I played at the time are eligible, and with the exception of 1997 for logical reasons, only games which had some release that year. Some choices I wouldn't make the same way today, but at the time made sense. Or, perhaps, I literally didn't play any other good games from that year in that year?
