Every time SE ports something, we're lucky enough to do a new review for it! This time looking at the Switch 2 version of FF7 Remake, and from a colleague who once thunk the original cover looked "snowy"...I can't unsee the Snow Clouds now.🌨️

In 2025, I celebrated my lucky 33rd bday; I played, finished, and reviewed exactly 33 games on RPGFan and backlogg'd; and it was practically fate that my favorite game of the year was Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. The game is gorgeous, the story is epic, and, of course, the soundtrack goes bowowowow.

It's a tough call between 1 and 2, but I'm putting number 2 here as the game is in early access:
It's Grounded 2! Even as-is, this is probably the game I played and enjoyed most in 2025, especially when I was playing with my nephew. :)

Speaking of Pokémon, my number 3 is a tie between two enhancement romhacks I completed this year, with over 150 hours of play between them: Pokémon Shin Blue Version and Pokémon Polished Crystal Version. These are the definitive way to play the first two generations, in my opinion!

Number 4 is Chip's Challenge, one of the best games ever made that nobody talks about! This little Atari Lynx ditty's influence can be felt from DOOM to Pokémon.

I started up Fallout 76 after my cousin asked me to play with him.
I loved my time with the game! Especially building C.A.M.P.s, running raids, and wreaking havoc in what is by far my favorite setting in the series, West Virginia.

For number 6, I opened up Metroid Fusion just to get some Nintendo platinum points, and suddenly it was 9 hours later and ope, I had finished the whole game.
I still can't believe we got two videogame masterpieces from a single series in different gameplay styles on the same day in 2002!

At number 7, Oblivion Remastered surprised me in a big way!
I was skeptical at first: screenshots of the game looked bland, like the original's shiny colorful look was dimmed down in the remaster. While it *is* in some spots, largely the game is still the gorgeous, funny, amazing Oblivion I love.

In Missouri prisons, people can purchase some Nintendo Game Boy Advance titles on their Securus tablets. Last year, Byron wrote about how Harvest Moon took over his facility: "About a week after the game was made available, it was the only thing you heard many prisoners here talking about."

I have the same issue with “bagel egg and cheese” people, it’s “egg and cheese bagel” come on.
