one of the best JRPGs I've ever played. I fell in love with this MMO so much I want it to be real somehow.

14

One Piece Odyssey
One Piece Odyssey
This was the best JRPG that I played all year. While I didn't really enjoy the retelling of the anime in JRPG form. I did enjoy the battle system and grinding out the side quest.

15

Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner
Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner
this game made me obsessed with Mechas for like 4 months. I built a gunpla cause of this.

I love this goofy little game. It's so charming and the rehearse and perform style of rhythm gaming is cool as hell.

17

Mass Effect 2

the peak of the mass effect trilogy and the game I had the most fun playing as. I loved doing the side content and preparing for the suicide mission.

18

Parasite Eve
Parasite Eve
a good ass game. Its art design, its soundtrack, the gameplay. Everything rocks.

19

Dead Space
Dead Space
This was really fun to replay. This time I had more fun being a weird space mechanic dude more than being scared and the fact I can have a completely different experience now is cool as shit.

24

Infamous: Second Son
Infamous: Second Son
A guilty pleasure, I've replayed this game so many times since getting it at launch.

27

28

Death by Degrees
Death by Degrees
There is not one but two kino as fuck final bosses and its deadass the best final boss I've ever faced in a game.

29

Street Fighter 6

Wake me up when Ed is here please..

This is the ideal fighting game package. I just wish there was more characters and not having to wait until Super Street Fighter 6 in 2 years.

30

Final Fantasy XVI
Final Fantasy XVI
The only fantasy here is yours. And we shall be its final witness

Man this game was cool as hell. Not really deep in the RPG part, but lovely adventure game.

31

Dark Messiah of Might and Magic
Dark Messiah of Might and Magic
kick.
kick.
kick.
seriously kicking is so therapeutic.

32

Sengoku Basara: Samurai Heroes
Sengoku Basara: Samurai Heroes
I love the style of this game man. I think my musou rotted brain just freaks out not being able to press XXXY to do a combo. I gotta play more of this later to get the full experience.

33

Metro: Last Light Redux
Metro: Last Light Redux
A little more bombastic that 2033. This was more of the same, which I would not complain about. Especially because I played this one on Survival Ranger mode.

34

Metro 2033 Redux
Metro 2033 Redux
I played these together so it kinda works as one singular game to me. I loved the story and the survival elements blended into the gameplay.

35

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game - Complete Edition
Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game - Complete Edition
this fucks

36

God of War
God of War
A fun ass character action game with some of the coolest shit I've ever seen in a game.

37

Devil May Cry 5
Devil May Cry 5
When I was playing as Dante I was high as a kite. Unfortunately when I played as V, I felt like I just went Cold Turkey.

38

Mass Effect
Mass Effect
While I loved the story of the game. the actual "game" didn't age well.

39

God of War III
God of War III
A fun ass character action game with some of the coolest shit I've ever seen in a game.

40

God of War II
God of War II
A fun ass character action game with some of the coolest shit I've ever seen in a game.

41

God of War
God of War
Gonna copy and paste the same thing for pretty much the whole series.

A fun ass character action game with some of the coolest shit I've ever seen in a game.

42

Onimusha 3: Demon Siege
Onimusha 3: Demon Siege
this fucks

43

Mafia III
Mafia III
I put this back on the backlog. Mentally I couldn't really play it at that moment. At the time trying to break 100%ing Open Worlds, to get a really good open world.

44

Prototype
Prototype
This was a pretty fun yet difficult hulk game. I had fun with it while I played

45

Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City
Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City
I think this game was as fun as it was because I was playing this slowly with a friend just immersing ourselves in the city.

46

Metroid Prime
Metroid Prime
I love exploring metroidvanias until I gotta explore a Metroidvania. That finale was torture to get through and took me a lot longer to beat the game then it should have.

47

Hi-Fi Rush
Hi-Fi Rush
oof. this feels bad to put here, but I didn't get to get invested in this game due to latency issues.

48

Biomutant
Biomutant
Boring. But I just wished it looked better or presented better. The art design is phenomenal but combat is too floaty. Exploring this colorful but bland world gets just as boring as the gameplay afterwards. This is the most middle-of-the-road game in terms of what I played this year.

49

Zone of the Enders
Zone of the Enders
A pleasant surprise when I played this, but after playing the second game (immediately after beating this game), you can skip this honestly.

50

Call of Cthulhu
Call of Cthulhu
I had a lot of fun playing this with the Mrs. Even though I rated it low, it was still a fun mystery that had me on the edge of my seat at some points.

51

Anno: Mutationem
Anno: Mutationem
Another good looker, but it's really meh to me from a story standpoint. I liked the gameplay and exploring the world and talking with the different characters littered about, but it was derivative to me.

52

Eternal Sonata
Eternal Sonata
I loved looking at this game, its really beautiful. The actual gameplay was pretty standard turn-based JRPG. I liked the historical moments detailing Chopin's life.

53

L.A. Noire
L.A. Noire
I didn't beat this, but I started playing this. I need to dedicate time for this and I knew it would take me a while to do when I still had a majority of my goals to complete.

54

Devil May Cry
Devil May Cry
this fucks.

55

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
From a historical standpoint, this was cool as hell to go through. I liked the dynamic of the couple, but the time powers weren't utilized by me as I didn't find platforming that hard.

56

Demon Turf
Demon Turf
It was fun. I digged it. I'm not a platformer dude, but I enjoyed my time. The make your own checkpoint system I wasn't used to so I messed up a lot.

57

Sonic Mania Plus
Sonic Mania Plus
I don't really like 2D sonic. But i think that's because Sonic Adventure was my first Sonic game, so all I knew was 3D sonic. While it was fun I don't really...care for it I guess.

58

Viewtiful Joe 2
Viewtiful Joe 2
I put these next to one another because its just more of the same. Slyvia doesn't add much to make this a huge leap in gameplay.

59

Viewtiful Joe
Viewtiful Joe
Just like Kirby:NID, I can replay Viewtiful Joe's First hour every day of the year and never get tired of it. But finally getting past that and beating the entire game....It was cool.

60

Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land
Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land
I beat this in like 40 minutes. A childhood fave but compared to everything else I played this year. It's honestly forgettable. But that's not to the quality of the game, I could play this game again any day of the week.

61

Destiny 2: Lightfall
Destiny 2: Lightfall
I come back to Destiny anytime they announce a new subclass. The subclass wasn't all that. And a lot of the systems that Destiny revamped and added just make Destiny a weird ass game to try to hop into whether you're new or returning.

62

Trek to Yomi
Trek to Yomi
This game was also just boring to play. Its not that the game was bad. Just literally put me to sleep core.

63

Diablo IV
Diablo IV
Idk if its because i'm an MMO muse and have played ARPG MMOs like Devillian and Lost Ark, but this world was so boring to explore. Classes weren't fun to build. And why is this world so damn big without giving me a horse until late game. It was just boring to me sadly.

64

Mass Effect 3
Mass Effect 3
One of the few games that lived up to its reputation

65

Shinobi
Shinobi
Granted this was a fun game to master once I got the hang of it. The jump was just realllyyy stiff for what It was trying to do with aerial combat being the focus.

66

Devil May Cry 2
Devil May Cry 2
DMC2 gets the award of "Making me skip the rest of the series to get this challenge over with".

I'll probably replay 3,4,DMC later or next year randomly while I'm bored but this game was just unfun.

67

Final Fantasy XV: Royal Edition
Final Fantasy XV: Royal Edition
Before playing this, the only Final Fantasy games I have played were: 12, and 7R. It doesn't live up to those games. It's really weird and unfinished even with all the DLCs included. It just doesn't feel good to play from a story standpoint.

68

Extermination
Extermination
Just like Without Warning, it has a lot of potential but a avalanche of weird design choices ruin the experience overall.

69

MediEvil
MediEvil
I don't like medievil. its not for me and that's okay

70

Dance Summit 2001: Bust a Move
Dance Summit 2001: Bust a Move
Listen THIS ISN'T A BAD GAME. It's a drastic change in the formula that made me love the first two games. It's confusing as hell as a veteran of the series to learn. Its one of those games I'd rather not play again and just play the first two again.

71

Dead Island: Definitive Edition
Dead Island: Definitive Edition
This was a Co-op Playthrough with a friend, we kind of both gave up around the halfway point realizing It was just going to be more of the same when we were already 100%ing the map before we left. By the time we got to the second town, we were fatigued and got the gist already.

72

Without Warning
Without Warning
The last play of the year that I won't really elaborate on, because most would see this game and immediately know it deserves to be here. That sucks, but I mean it was fun before it got annoying...

73

F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin
F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin
FEAR 1 was so good that the sequels to me just pail in comparison. At the same time, I do enjoy the gameplay and the overall art design of this and 3. When I look back at the series, most of my memories is from the first game and not these.

74

Prince of Persia: Warrior Within
Prince of Persia: Warrior Within
Sands of Time didn't wow me enough to warrant this game being hot dog water. It's a product of the time and that time is long gone.

75

F.E.A.R. 3
F.E.A.R. 3
I think I was a little too harsh on this game. Playing them back to back made me realize the degradation of the series from what could've easily been one of my top 5 of the year to one of my bottom 5.

76

Naruto Shippuden: Dragon Blade Chronicles
Naruto Shippuden: Dragon Blade Chronicles
I wish I never played this game. It's so bad. It's sad cause as a kid I wanted this game so badly.
