Here’s my 2025 ‘Games Finished’ pinned post. I was inspired by others to do this, as I’ve never kept track each year.
Rating System (5/5 possible):
❤️ = 1
💔 = 1/2
I’m a chill gamer that’s easy to please, so YMMV. 😂 I play a little of everything, and I count DLC if it’s a major update.

PSA for fellow ROG Ally (X) owners:
The new Xbox FSE is *amazing*.
Do NOT sleep on this toolkit if you like a console-like experience and want to skip Windows boot mode.
Think Steam big picture mode.
It also aggregates your games from all storefronts, and boots their launchers so easy. 😍

Once again, I need some of you to become voice actors. Maybe it’s the vibe. Or humor. Or cadence. Or your voice is just calming. But, seriously, sincerely, respectfully (non-creepily)…please read me a story. 😂 I could listen for hours.

Lyrics heard wrong, Brian edition, part 5,985:
La Isla Bonita by Madonna. The first time I heard this song, I was like did she just say “Last night I dreamt of some bagels??” 😂 Because…Girl, same.

I have wanted to play Concrete Genie for years…YEARS! OMG This game is *magical* and exactly what I needed right now. What a beautiful game, and such a moving story. I don’t want it to end. 💙 I am SO angry that this dev was shuttered. We need and deserve more games like this. We were robbed. 😭

Speaking of Supermassive Games and their Dark Pictures Anthology, and spinoffs…
Now that I’ve finally played and enjoyed Until Dawn (2015), and see what they did, I’d love for them to make a full on “prisoner’s dilemma” game. Like take 999/VLR and make it Supermassive. They’d do it really well. 😍
