Wwwwwwhat's up guys, it's me, Geoff Keighley, back again for another year of the incredible Letshugbro Backloggd Review of the Year Awards 2022. It's the biggest night of the year for Backloggd and Backloggd Reviews, coming to you here live from the itch.io Genderdome right here in downtown Detroit, streaming to over 10 million amateur game journalists out there on Mastodon Live, geoffkeighley.net and the comments section of a Pocky & Rocky review that was posted in June 2021! Man, another year - we made it, Backloggers! And wasn't that opening rendition of "Jack's Theme (Ska mix)" from “Final Fantasy: Stranger of Paradise” by Machine Gun Kelly and the Square Enix NFT Orchestra just incredible? Wow. What amazing commercial performance. What a show we have for you - I'm so excited to present these Backloggd Review Awards here to you tonight, awards for all these incredible reviews that we have been flaming each other for over the last 12 incredible months of gaming. Let's give it up for our Backloggers, those people like Mr Prog-san are the real frontline heroes out there, making video game website for our video game reviews, video game reviews of so many kinds that I'm just so excited to give Backloggd game review awards to for all the incredible reviews and lists they've provided us, empowering us as consumers who are entertained and awarded and educated and harassed with so many great reviews ha ha ha wow we're so lucky. Stay tuned because our friends at Negma Pharmaceuticals have a Backloggd Announcement Minute coming up from one of your favourite Backloggd reviewers. That's right folks - fans of letshugbro's psychotic 12,000-word ramble about Elden Ring will be delighted to hear about an all-new review-slash-personal-treatise-on-the-nature-of-human-existence-within-and-outwith-the-90s-SEGA-Nintendo-video-game-landscape that is coming exclusively to Backloggd and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate next year.

whoah, dubious is my favourite kind of honour!

Holy shit, can't believe I got a shout out on this list. Thank you so much, I'm really stoked about the Donkey Kong Country review. Honestly, equal credit should be given to Pangburn for sitting down with me multiple times to further flesh out the thesis and run through all the examples. It definitely would not have gotten off the ground without his help.

I walk up to the stage to humbly accept my award. As I prepare to make my speech, in the audience I hear a small belch. My composure wavers when I open my mouth. The first word out of my mouth is stammered. My stomach feels as though it has been stabbed with a bread knife. I hunch over and express a meagre "o-oohhh geez." Adrenaline shoots through my body as my heart rate accelerates. I am pallid as a ghost, and am shedding moisture with sickening sweat. As the light leaves my eyes and consciousness fades, all I can see is the face of that gun, begging me to shove him into the final boss' anal cavity. I fear not death, for I have already been through hell.


Thank you for the award!

Realizing there is a review on here with over a hundred comments that I've never seen until now has greatly boosted my confidence in not being as terminally online as I thought lol
