The committee has decided to allow this on a trial basis.


Also it annoys me that its called Red Dead Redemption 2 and not Red Dead Revolver 3.

I don't think it has much in common with the other two besides the general Wild West setting.

The best games I've played this year:

Subnautica
Return of the Obra-Dinn

I've got a backlog right now starting with RDR2. And I've played a bunch of awesome games that weren't released in 2018.

I’ve bought the games I have for a reason, yet undeniably a few on my shortlist deserve to be in a top ten of 2018 (and there are other candidates as well, like Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Return Of The Obra Dinn, Battletech and Dead Cells).

I mostly play on the Xbox One X and the Nintendo Switch.

Have really enjoyed these:

1. Red Dead Redemption 2
2. FIFA 19
3. Battlefield V
4. Destiny 2: Forsaken
5. Forza Horizon 4
6. Hollow Knight

Fortnite is ok, but I think it mostly belongs to 2017 (sort of similar to Destiny 2), even if there have been new releases involved in 2018. Not a fan of Sea Of Thieves. NBA 2K19 seems good, but I’ve played less than an hour so far. The last couple of games from 2018 that I have played, have not hooked me yet.

Would really like to play God Of War, Monster Hunter: World, Super Smash Bros Ultimate and Marvel’s Spider-Man.

That’s the only one I ever played, and I had it on the Dreamcast.

This is what happens when you're on house arrest at 8 pm every night with a toddler.

I’d murder a toddler to have that kind of free time.
