Hey there, gamers, and welcome back to another Top 100! I ranked my rated games using this fancy website. The list saw a bunch of changes this year, some new games, some increases, some drops, but still a list of awesome games! Check it out in full below, and keep an eye on my YouTube channel for a few quick videos giving you some of my additional thoughts on these over the next few days!
Here’s last year’s list, if you’d like to see it in full. But I will also note new games with a (N), and games from last year’s with a (#) next to them, with whatever number they came in at last time.
Enjoy & Happy Gaming~
