3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Really struggling to think what NEW game I bought this year... I mean, I own an Xbox Series X, PS5, Steam Deck and Switch... there must have been SOMETHING...

The idea that nothing made an impression to the point I have to check a Wiki is not a good sign.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_in_video_games

Dragon's Dogma 2 - 3/22
Little Kitty Big City - 5/9
Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics - 9/12
Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration Expanded Edition - 10/25
Marvel Rivals - 12/6

Planning on this one today:
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle - 12/9

Lots of re-releases, re-masters, re-mixed which I'd argue don't count for GOTY. Not original to this year.

So, yeah, nothing new I played this year rises to GOTY.

I forget the name but going to ask did you play the Playstation advert that won game of the year?

I played the OG game that came with the PS5, it was fun! I wasn't down to pay $60 for a sequel. I might get it if there's a decent sale.
