We had this thread for 2020. Didn't see anyone making the same thread for last year, so I'll do it myself. I have played way more games this last year than any year before, including some games I have yet to finish. Without further ado, here's my list which is more or less in order of when I played it (these are all on a 10 scale):

Sonic 2 - 7.5

Sonic 3 & Knuckles - 8.5

Rocket Knight Adventures - 8

Goof Troop (co-op) - 7

Pocky & Rocky (co-op) - 7

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of the Sky - 6.5 (hard to rate this game)

Killer7 - No idea what to give this in rating, but play it. A more unique gaming experience is pretty much impossible to come by.

Crash Bandicoot 3 (original) - 7

Crash Team Racing (original) - 7

Gunstar Heroes (co-op) - 8.5

I had a lot I was playing, but it was old games, slightly old games, games in alpha/beta, and modding. Games I like don't come out often and fall into the mech, racing, space sim, rts, and tactical shooter categories. These genres get activity but like every 2-4 years. I also think 2021 was the weakest Triple-A gaming release I've seen in my whole life since the 90s. Even the very name of a new game would often fail to catch my interest.

I am looking forward to Elden Ring, Homeworld 3, TW: Warhammer 3, Starfield (even though I've seen little of the actual game I still am hopeful), Galahad, Ready or Not, Groundbranch, the KOTOR remaster, The Invincible, The Wayward Realms, Mechwarrior 5 Clan DLC, STALKER 2, Kenshi 2, Distant Worlds 2, Ashes of Creation, a full release of Everspace 2, and Mechwarrior Living Legends 2. I am used to a lot of what I hope for not panning out, but even if 1-2 of those games turn out well, I am happy.

I played too many games... Well... I will list only the ones that I finished/enjoyed.

Metro Exodus plus dlcs: 9/10.

Other than some jank here and there, I pretty much liked everything. I finished twice and got the two endings. I also enjoyed the dlcs quite a bit.


Flight Simulator: 9/10.

I have so many hours on it and can't stop playing it. I love it.


State of Decay 2: 8/10.

Janky, but fun. I still play it and I am hyped for the sequel.


Resident Evil 3 Remake: 8/10.

Too short and the final boss was too easy... But I liked a lot... I got the plat.


A Plague Tale: 8/10.

Cool story and characters, great art style and graphics, solid gameplay and voice acting. The final stages were kinda "rushed", but overall I liked a lot.


The Riftbreaker: 8/10.

Extremely fun and well made. But a little shallow.


Halo Infinite: 7/10.

I loved the multiplayer, but I found the SP quite lacking.


Doom (2016): 6/10.

It was fine. Too long, I got bored... But I finished.

I bought a sex doll, but I keep it inflated 100% of the time and use it like a regular wife
Lets see if I can remember them all lol, it's going to be a weird list.

Those games I played until beaten unsless stated otherwise:

Mugen No Frontier 2 (DS) 7/10 - Simple yet pretty fun JRPG, with a battle system kinda like Valñkyrie Profile and lots of waifubait.
Dragon Quest VI (DS) 8/10 - Simple and kinda easy JRPG, but man does it have charm and soul.
Final Fantasy V (GBA + SNES soundtrack) 9/10 - One of the most fun and addicting JRPGs I've played, the job system is just too good.
Monster Hunter Rise (Switch) 8/10 - Kinda letdown because of the lack of end game and difficulty, but overall pretty good and had lots of hours of fun with it.
Dishonored (PC) 7/10 - I'll always say this: stealth games where you can see through walls are a meme. Still have my fun with it.
Metro: Exodus (PC) 8/10 - Kinda janky and the last part of the game is a joke, but aside from that it was pretty good, fun and a goddamn looker.
Terranigma (SNES) 6/10 - Amazing OST and visuals that get dragged down by the shitty gameplay and the worst balancing I've seen in any game.
Secret of Evermore (SNES) 8/10 - Great game, go play it if you like dogs or Jeremy Soule. Last parts of the game felt a bit rushed tho.
Super Mario World (SNES) 9/10 - Could use some more variety and challenge, but game's still a hell lot of fun.
Alien Soldier (Mega Drive) 10/10 - Go play this if you like being challenged. Took two fucking weeks to beat the Seventh Force and another week for what came after that but man, did I have fun with this.
F-Zero 64 + 64CD goodies (N64) 10/10 - 60fps, tons of tracks, amazing soundtrack.
GoldenEye 007 (N64) 8/10 - Despite everything this one still holds up today.
Metroid Prime 2: Echoes (GC - Dropped) 7/10 - Much worse than the first one IMO, dropped it just before getting the super bomb because I just didn't care anymore.
Super C (NES) 9/10 - Great soundtrack and good challenge. Could use having maybe one more level tho, it felt short.
Record of Lodoss War: Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth (PC) 8/10 - Loved the Ikaruga-like mechanic and the sprite work.
Death Stranding (PC - Dropped) ?/10 - Got bored quickly. Might give another chance but honestly, what the fuck Kojima?
Persona 5S (PC - Dropped) 6/10 - I think musous aren't for me. It was fun beating the shit out of hundres of hee hos tho.
The Wonderful 101 (PC - Dropped) ?/10 - Looks cool but I'm was not in the mood for it.
Nier: Replicant (PC) 8/10 - Having to replay it so many fucking times was a test of patience, but I got lots of fun anyway. Very good OST and visual design.
DOOM Eternal DLCs (PC) 8/10 - Amazing soundtrack and level design. Some of the new demons were a bit lame tho, but anyways, I enjoyed my time a lot with it.
Yakuza Kiwami 2 (PC) 9/10 - It's Yakuza, one of the best IMO. Great game.
Yakuza 3 (PC) 7'5/10 - The battle system is fucked but Okinawa is maximum comfy.
Yakuza 4 (PC) 8/10 - Great game, really enjoyed having multiple main characters.
Rimworld (PC - Dropped) 8/10 - Great game, dropped it because it was too addicting.
Factorio (PC) - 10/10 - Don't play this.
Code Vein (PC - Dropped) 6/10 - Very meh. Might give another chance but it won't be soon.
Kingdom Come: Deliverane (PC - Dropped) 7/10 - A well written game! Very well done too, but man what a shitty combat it has. Dropped it because of that.
Metroid Dread (Switch) 9/10 - Could be the best of the series if it wasn't for that soundtrack. Aside from that it's an amazing game.
Shin Megami Tensei V (Switch) 9/10 - Writting kinda sucks and I even forgot about the side characters. Gameplay is a 10 out of 10 tho, and the OST is amazing.
Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War (PC) 7/10 - Cool RTS game. Pathfinding sucks big time tho.
Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War II (PC) 7/10 - It starts off very cool, like an action oriented Company of Heroes. Got repetitive fast tho.
Warhammer 40K: Space Marine (PC) 8/10 - Pretty fun and simple game. Fuck Leandros tho.
Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise (PS4 - Dropped) 7'5/10 - was having a lot of fun but I dropped it since I just started reading the manga and don't wanna get spoiled.
El Shaddai (PC) 8/10 - weird, but pretty cool DMC-like game. Really like the visual design and the OST.


I had a lot of fun both playing retro shit and new releases. Overall I would say it's been a pretty good year when it comes to gaming for me.
 
Masterpiece
The Last of Us Part II

Great
Halo 3
God of War 2018


Good
Tower Unite
Life is Feudal: Forest Village
Twelve Minutes
- Yes it is a bit repetitive but I really don't understand how it gets so much criticism.
Unpacking
Eastshade
Control -
A number of things to like here, but it does get very repetitive, and the story is a mess.
Blackhaven
Borderlands
Symphony of the Night
- Production values hold up but castle design and gameplay does not fare as well.
The Ascent
Subnautica Below Zero
- It's good but way too similar to the first game to start out with.
Dark Souls
Submerged


Average
Dead Island - Starts out well but is a one trick pony. Probably a lot more fun with friends.
Halo: CE - Great gameplay, awful level design.
Subliminal
Super Metroid
- If wasn't for the bullshit glass tunnel and awful Maridia I would have been more positive.
The House of Da Vinci
PC Building Simulator -
Nice concept, but way too much busywork.
No Man's Sky
Horizon: Zero Dawn
- I hate the melee combat.
Lost Planet - Holds up ok but some of these bosses are bullshit.
Fea Tactics - Not sure if this game is bland or if most other tactics games just suck after playing XCOM.
Flynn: Son of Crimson
Subterrain


Weak
Haven
Shadow of the Colossus
- Sorry but it's bland and repetitive.
Mountain - Didn't realize this was an idle game, but it's not for me.

Any game that I finish and enjoy is a 10/10 for me. In 2021 those games were Disco Elysium, R&C, Control and Far Cry 6. Anything else, I either haven’t completed yet (Returnal, Tales of Arise), or I got bored with part way through (RE: Village, Guardians of the Galaxy). I can see me finishing Tales of Arise within the next couple of weeks as I’m really enjoying it - I’m around 35 hours into the game now.

Left out some games that I’ve not put much time in to, or simply played to boost trophy/achievement count. I’ve annotated some scores.

Ratchet and Clank 2016 8.5
Uncharted 4 (replay) 8.5
Horizon Zero Dawn (replay) 9.0
God of War 2018 9.0
Astro’s Playroom 7.5 (great pack in).
Miles Morales 7.0 (Diet Spider-Man 2018).
Immortals Fenyx Rising 6.5 (this game just made me want to replay Breath of the Wild).
Pokémon Sword 6.5 (every new iteration of Pokémon strays further from the light of God).
Astral Chain 6.5 (a snooze fest).
Metroid Dread 9.5 (wow, banger).
Jedi Fallen Order 7.0 (backtracking in this game is fucking terrible and unintuitive).
Sonic Mania 4.0 (man, do I fucking blow at Sonic. I can’t really attest to the games’ quality, because I’m shit at it).
Yooka Laylee and the Impossible Lair 7.0
Hades 8.0
Flight Simulator 7.0
Streets of Rage 4 9.0 (this game fucking slaps).
Yooka Laylee 8.0 (not as shit as people said when it dropped, actually a good 3D platformer).
Doom 64 8.0
Descenders 8.0 (gave me Tony Hawk vibes, fun and relaxing game).
A Plague Tale Innocence 9.0 (great narrative and fun gameplay).
Forza Horizon 4 8.5
Forza Horizon 5 9.0
Psychonauts 2 8.0
Halo Infinite (MP) 9.0 (best competitive MP of the last 5 years, maybe even longer?).
Battlefield 2042 3.0 (POS).

Top of the pile by my rating: Metroid Dread, God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn, Streets of Rage 4, A Plague Tale, Forza Horizon 5 & Halo MP. No shit, but some great games.

Bottom of the pile: Battlefield. Man, what a shadow of a skid mark Dice have become.

Little Nightmares 2 -10/10 has to be really, my game of the year by a mile
Little Nightmares 1 - 8/10
Shadowman Remastered - 9/10
Hellblade Senua's Sacrifice - 8/10
Exo One - 8/10
Kena Bridge of Spirits - 6/10
Panzer Dragoon Remake - 6/10

Everything else I played gets a thoroughly deserved big fat zero as I fucked them all off after a few hours play. They didn't hold my attention and that's an absolute must for me. If not in the bin they go....

Nier Automata
Death Stranding
Doom 2016 (Switch)
Dead Rising

Flight Simulator: 9/10.

I have so many hours on it and can't stop playing it. I love it.

What do you do in the game? I mean whats the long term motivation for you? I played it only briefly but want to jump again into it with my new PC.
 
It was a pretty mixed year for me. A lot of really excellent games but quite a few low points, and several big disappointments (even if the games were alright).

Fifa 22: 8/10
Journey is good. The skill tree makes it fun.
Create club is fun, but gets dull, once there is no challenge.
FUT mode is great. You can beat OP teams, by simply controlling your players carefully.
Also, through passes, with crosses is very op. It hard to pull it off, but once you learn timing, your wingers will control the game.

exclusives are highlighted. I knew I played xbox a lot more last year, but it's more than I realized! these are the game I finished this year.

PS5
Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart - 8/10 short and sweet. I wish there was a little bit more to it as even with post game content its rather light.
COD Black Ops Cold War - 6/10 pretty average stuff
Dirt 5 - 7/10 enjoyed it more than I expected.

ummmm thats it :messenger_downcast_sweat:

Xbox Series X gamepass games are green.
Microsoft Flight Simulator - 10/10 this is an experience I always wanted...the only thing I want more from it is correct seasons.
Lost Judgment - 9/10 I just finished the main story on new years eve... so hooked on it.
Yakuza Like a Dragon - 8/10 love it, just wish it was action instead of old school RPG. works for humor though.
Psychonauts 2 - 9/10 did not play 1 but man this game was a lot of fun.
Forza Horizon 5 - 10/10 it's pretty much everything I could want from Horizon. the best for sure.
Halo Infinite - 8/10 really good gameplay, just wish there was more variety in the world.
TDPA House of Ashes - 8/10 love these types of games, this one is the best of this series so far.
The Medium - 7/10 not a bad game at all, just not that much to rave about.
Marvel's Avengers - 6/10 feels like a waste of time mostly.
The Division 2 - 7/10 finished it because I own it, not because I particularly like it. It's not bad though.
Mass Effect Legendary Edition - 10/10 the best trilogy ever.
Life is Strange True Colors - 9/10 the best one of this series.
New Super Lucky's Tale - 7/10 a fun little distraction at 4K and 120 fps
Assasin's Creed Odyssey - 8/10 I actually finished this game finally..felt like it would never end.
Judgment - 9/10 loved it!

Hmm Let's see, maybe i will forget something. I will include games i played for the first time or i replayed again.
I use 5 rating scale, i see a lot of people using decimals even for 10 scale, how do you do it? I find it hard to differentiate that much, must be very detailed and exhausting to give accurate rating. 10 is good but i always find myself not taking full advantage of it, so i settle with 5 even though some few games overlap or tend to be a bit better while having the same ratings, but i always conclude its not worth to go for 10 scale just for those five or so games.

From order (January 2021 to December 2021)
- Divinity Original Sin 2: 5/5
- A Plague Tale: 3/5
- Pathologic 2: 5/5
- Sekiro: 5/5
- Hades: 4/5
- Slay the Spire: 3/5
- Enter the Gungeon: 4/5
- Ori and the Will of the Wisps: 4/5
- What Remains of Edith Finch: 1/5
- Shadow of the Tomb Raider: 2/5
- Death Stranding: 3/5
- The Outer Worlds: 1/5
- Resident Evil 3 Remake: 3/5
- Resident Evil 7 (had to warm up before village so i replayed lol): 4/5
- Resident Evil Village: 4/5
- Disco Elysium The Final Cut: 3/5
- Bloodstained Ritual of the Night: 4/5
- Shadow Tactics Blades of the Shogun: 3/5
- Subnautica: 1/5
- Nioh 2: 4/5
- SoulCalibur IV: 2/5
- Dishonored 2 : 4/5
- Metroid Dread: 4/5
- Yakuza 0: 2/5
- Yakuza Kiwami: 1/5
- Valorant: 1/5
- NieR Replicant: 3/5
- Tales of Arise: 3/5

-No Rating: League of Legends. I play it with my friends. A lot of hours.

Will do Outer Wilds DLC soon, and Hitman 3.

One thing to note is all roguelikes here are games i have been doing runs over and over, like Gungeon, i still do runs once in a while.
Also as i said some of these are replays and no first time.
I think im forgetting some game here but nvm, im sleepy.

2021 was a shit year for many reasons but in gaming it was an absolutely fantastic year. These are only the games I’ve put in a decent amount of time in and I also excluded a bunch of replayed 60fps updated games, and I still have 10 games I would rate 9 or higher on this list, with Metroid Dread in particular being the shining star being the only 10/10.

What do you do in the game? I mean whats the long term motivation for you? I played it only briefly but want to jump again into it with my new PC.
I like flying around seeing different places and I always find landing challenging.

I am not even done exploring places I went in real life, so I am always curious to see how they were recreated in game, plus there's the rest of the world that I did not have yet the chance to see in person.

Overral Flight Simulator is a relaxing game to me.
