Jeff, Kyle, and Dan are here to select the best game of 2013 using our podcast’s favorite unscientific method: a tournament. It was an incredible year for games, so which game survives to the end? Also, Dan has multiple personalities. Game Boy games might be coming to Switch Online. Shang Chi was pretty great. Marvel Midnight Suns gameplay is revealed to mixed reactions. Sony missteps with its convoluted editions of Horizon Forbidden West. THQ teases some game reveals. And a lot more!
