My Favourite Games of All-Time
#7FaveGames is making the rounds at the moment, and I couldn’t help but jump in. But after posting my list and engaging with a few others about theirs, I started to recall some incredible moments with other games that aren’t on my list. In short, it’s tough to narrow it down to just seven. And there are different reasons a game might make your list, while others that you invested a huge amount of time into are omitted.
