The 2017 Grimmys: Old Game of the Year
What we played and enjoyed the most in 2017 that didn’t come out in 2017. Rocket League Our repeat winner is no surprise. Weekly games continued throughout the year, if not more. Psyonix expanded to another console and keeps adding more seasonal incentives to draw our eyes to watching every up and down of our…

2017 Games of the JDevL – The List
It’s been a long time since video games had a year like 2017. It kind of snuck up on me, too. Nioh and Nier fought for my attention right out of the gate alongside a new Nintendo console and a heavy-hitting new PS4 franchise. It felt like it never let up. I had a blast…

2017 Games of the Colefacekilla – The List
2017 was one hell of a year for video games. It seemed like the release schedule was non-stop. There were days of multiple heavy hitting games being released all the while I was still playing a ton of Rocket League weekly. It’s been a year of playing a lot of great games, but with other…

2017 Games of the Tacosfeedthebear – The List
I think it has been well established at this point that 2017 was a banner year for gaming, but it was also a pivotal gaming year for me personally. This year saw my long awaited return to PC gaming. My most formative years as a gamer happened mostly on PC, so after years of being…

2017 Games of the Coop – The List
It’s no secret that 2017 made history. More good games were released than we could realistically play. New IPs blew us away, sequels dominated, and indie studios proved they could hang with the big dogs. We tore apart our favorites in search of flaws to create meaningless ranked lists. After the dust settled, this is…

SUPERHOT VR – Games of 2017
SUPERHOT was one of my most memorable games of 2016, but now it has fried in my memory permanently thanks to its move to VR. While it wasn’t my stand out VR moment, it was my first VR moment. Effortlessly dodging bullets. Peaking around corners. Using my enemies weapons against them. It’s all stuff I…

LawBreakers – Games of 2017
I can’t help it. In another life or maybe a couple years earlier, LawBreakers and I would be playing together with my closest arena shooter buddies. The spirit of my Unreal Tournament glory days is here, I just know it. The matches I played were fast and full of drama. I may have gotten confused…

2017 Games of the GiffTor – The List
I’m going to make my games of the year heavily qualified as in, “I didn’t play two of what I’m taking on faith to be absolutely worthy to be top ten games of the year,” namely: Super Mario Odyssey and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Otherwise, I think I got a pretty…

2017 Games of the JubJub – The List
What a year 2017 was. There were so many great games. So many that I had trouble getting to all the ones I really wanted to play. I had to stop playing multiplayer games for the last 2 months just to get through my list. And just in case I wasn’t having enough fun trying…
