Purely Academic with Jonathan Lack & Sean Chapman

The Weekly Stuff #171 – The Top 10 Video Games of 2016


Listen Later

For our final episode of 2016, we’ve devoted an entire extra-length show to counting down our Top 10 Video Games of 2016. In all the time we’ve been covering gaming, we have never seen a year like this, a year with such depth and such breadth that both Sean and I struggled mightily whittling our respective lists down to just 10 titles – and only had four game total crossing over between our lists. We talk about every game on our countdowns in detail, offer some ‘honorable mention’ awards to those that didn’t make the cut, and designate some superlatives to the best music, graphics, performances, and characters of the year in gaming. 2016 may have been a horrible year in many ways, but when it game to video games, there was greatness as far as the eye could see – so it seems wholly appropriate to devote our last show of the year to putting all those creative achievements in perspective.
