re: your year in gaming 2023

I'm always WAY behind in gaming due to kids/work/life so my choices here will be dated for sure. But I got to play a good bit this year so here it is

Best/Favorite: God of War
- Just another great installment in this series. Really liked the open world aspect and the graphics were amazing

Worse/least favorite: AC Valhalla
- I enjoyed it but the monotony of the game made it a chore at times. Plus how many hours it took to complete was insane. Way too much time wasted searching for new weapons/upgrades

Biggest surprise: Days Gone
- Currently playing this and I am really enjoying it. Got it for $15 in the PS store a few weeks ago on a flier thinking it would be decent and this is just behind God of War for my favorite played this year. Not a perfect game by any means but very enjoyable

Biggest disappointment: Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order
- Man I really wanted to like this one but I felt the mechanics of the game were just awful IMO. Might be in the minority there
