Here tis, and a repeat top nominee. As always, two lists follow, one numerical, one alphabetical. The numerical list starts with the Hall of Fame games, and they are included in the alphabetical list marked **. As with last year, the numerical list shows placings rather than votes. You can see the votes in the alphabetical list. I haven’t been as fastidious with names this year. As always, numbered games may not be sequels, and I have added numbers to some games just to clarify where they come in the production line. The Journey Down tripped me up – I couldn’t decide whether it was one game or three, and so therefore how to count it. Factor that into the ultimate count for that game. I promise to sort it out before next year. A few darkish games crept in, some of which I would expect to see on that list. Awesome thanks again to Chief who largely does the count, and apologies up front for any mistakes.
