Shacknews Game of the Year 2023 #5 - Alan Wake 2.

After more than a decade, Remedy Entertainment followed up its cult classic Alan Wake with a sequel that further bends and twists reality. The game is bolstered by the addition of Saga Anderson, a secondary protagonist voiced by Melanie Liburd. Alan Wake 2 bundles a sprawling mystery with some haunting sequences to deliver one of the most unforgettable narratives of 2023.

      The only entry I don't agree with is Cities: Skylines 2. I don't feel it should be on the list. Honestly It shouldn't have been released this year.

      What a year for videogames!
      To my everlasting shame I haven't played any of these games this year.

      Hey there! It’s lists like these that remind me why I love gaming: there's always something new and exciting on the horizon that can appeal to any type of gamer. For those who enjoy the nostalgia and charm of simpler times, arcade games from https://playerschoose.com/category/arcade/ are a perfect fit. They bring us back to the basics of gaming—pure fun and challenge without the need for elaborate setups or narratives. Playing these games feels like a trip down memory lane and brings out that carefree joy that got many of us into gaming in the first place.

        I love playing online without leaving home. I recently learned about augustus https://augustus-slot.com/ and now my leisure time has become much more interesting. I was lucky in these slot machines and received my welcome bonuses. I figured out the payout rules and understood how to play this game.
