Not every category needs to be represented each year.
Only 2XKO and City of the Wolves are new. Two others are (lovingly-made) collections of old games, and the last is the fourth iteration of a 19-year-old game.

Much love to Kirsty Rider for her performance as Lune. I can understand not wanting four of your six Best Performance nominations coming from the same game, but I can't understand how she wasn't one of the three.

The real reason why we haven't gotten Metroid Prime 2 Remastered is because Retro would be forced to reckon with that one time they designed a boss that was just three penises sharing one ballsack.

We didn't endure the ringtone era just to re-litigate this almost 20 years later.

Being able to super jump cancel a whiff punish is one of the coolest things in this game.

"Friends" is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994 to 2004, following six young adults-Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe - living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, and personal growth over ten seasons.

The one that drew blood.
Standing fierce super-jump-canceled into canceled H Thunder Dash canceled into standing forward super-jump-canceled into EX Thunder Dash is brutal.

Not exaggerating when I say Viper's trials are harder than every other SF6 trial combined.

Saving these to make GIFs later (in the event that this cracks my top 10).

Game still good.

I cannot stress enough that this is two minutes into the video game.

Usually I'm ecstatic to be done with even a game (even a fantastic game) beyond the 60-hour mark. But I only feel bittersweetness after finishing Silksong.

If a game's quality is measured by my desire to forget it and experience it anew, then there aren't too many experiences above this.

No new pictures. Where are you at mentally?
