I voted for Sea of Stars too, I absolutely loved it! Whilst I wasn’t really satisfied with the ending, the full journey The game takes you in os simply brilliant! 

Yeah games like Tarkov and Seivert are difficult as they are in Beta, then you have other games in early access. Then you have Games like Fortnite that continué to reinvent themselves every year! 
 
Hopefully this final list is a pretty good representation of the Forever Gaming community!

I could be pedantic and say Tarkov and Seivert are both in Beta and not released on the dates you state. But by the same token they're unreleased games and can't feature anyway. Not to mention this is all moot as I'm the only one who plays them 🤣
 
But cheers for sorting this out, shame a few more didn't manage to enter nominations 👏👊

I know there was some really good releases this year, but Sea of Stars just hit me in the feels with that nostalgia of sitting in front of a TV when I was young, playing some SNES gems.  Beauty 2D art/graphics.  Wonderful score, and a great story with some excellent gameplay.

I never bothered trying Elden Ring or the Dark Souls games as I typically don’t enjoy these type of games! Don’t want to waste my money, however with Lies of P I was able to play it through Game Pass! 
 
I did try Wo Long through Game pass but couldn’t get past the first boss 🤣 
 
The thing I liked about Lies of P was the Specter mechanic. Being able to take on the boss battles with some help was a godsend and there’s no way I would have beat the game without it! 
 
I will definitely consider going back to Bloodborne though as I was always interested in the atmosphere and setting!

Beat Lies of P last night, the first souls like I have ever beaten! I’ve tried Bloodborne, Sekiro, Demon Souls and Mortal Shell in the past but gave up with all of them pretty early on! 
 
I persevered with this game as I loved the setting and the idea for the story, and I’m glad I did as I ended up loving it! 
 
I thought the combat was fantastic and particularly liked the mechanic where successfully parrying could break the enemy weapon! However, I found the Legion arm to be mostly useless, and felt like using any larger weapons put you at a massive disadvantage which meant I didn’t experiment with weapons as much as I would have liked! 
 
The visuals and audio design were great though and the story was interesting and more “in your face” than the other souls games, but I would still have liked the story to take more of a central part of the game. 
 
Overall, really enjoyed the game and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys souls games. I gave it a score of 8.4 on my instagram where I usually post my reviews! I enjoyed it so much that I’m actually considering going back and trying Bloodborne or Demon Souls again?! 
 
Anyone else beaten this that thinks I’m crazy or think it deserves more than 8.4?

Well done for completing it @WelchyTV 😄. My son still hasn't started it, not sure why as he seemed to get into Lords of the Fallen more first and now hes moved on to his PSVR again for abit. I'm sure once he starts it, as he enjous these games, he'll probably say its up there. I think most people still see Bloodborne up there as the one to challenge this title score wise...its making me thing 2024 I should go back and try and finish a souls like game like that!

Spider-Man 2
Diablo IV
Teardown
Hogwarts Legacy
Final Fantasy XVI
 
I don't know if Teardown was out on PC last year or not but I only played about 5 new games 😂 
 

I dont think I payed 5 new games this year😂 and the ones I did play wouldn’t make the list except for Spider-Man 2

I really find this hard from my angle as I'm in the boat where Phil is on games released not in this year. I've also been more interested in others thoughts than my own as it dictates what I buy next.
 
Having said all this, one game i played stood out from all the rest, so much so it was my 3rd highest played game this year - Hogwarts Legacy. Superb game, loved everything about it. Gameplay is super sharp and so enjoyable. My list is probably the below:
 
Hogwarts Legacy Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Diablo 4 Street Fighter 6 Payday 3

Yes a decent month to start 2024! 
 
I loved A Plague Tale Réquiem! Nobody saves the world was decent but have never tried Evil West! 
 
Hopefully the rest of 2024 will have lineups like this … 🤣

Thanks for the nominations so far everyone! 
 
We have a good selection of games already, but I will leave the nomination process open until the 28th to give a few more days for people to nominate if they would like to! 
 
Have a fantastic Christmas for all those who celebrate!
