Been playing a lot of retro games this year. Had fun with Phantasy Star and the OG 90s Baldurs Gate, revisited the Metal Slug seres and Played all the NES Mega Man games for the first time. Also messed around with a Dreamcast emulator and played Jet Set Radio for the first time. Played Sonic Adventure for the first time in 15 years because I had the sudden urge to check out the Chao garden.

As for games that came out this year, I've only had Super Mario Wonder for two days and it's already a ton of fun. Pikmin 4 was pretty cool too. I've been messing around with Voices of the Void as well and that was neat.

I also want to play Baldurs Gate 3 some time but I'm waiting until I finish 1 and 2 first. Also I bet it runs like shit on my laptop so I dunno...

I feel like there's somethng I'm missing though. I swear I played more modern games this year... weird...

EDIT: PIZZA TOWER! HOW DID I FORGET MY FAVORITE GAME OF THIS YEAR! Easily game of the year for me. Shame the dev is a douche.
