In our final episode of 2017, we look back on a truly special year in video games (albeit a rather horrible year for the world at large) by counting down the Top 10 Games of the Year, with each host presenting their own list. It was a year defined by amazing exclusives, resurgent franchises, and a renaissance for Japanese developers, with the majority of games on both lists coming from Japan. For the second year in a row, there are only four titles that cross over between our two lists, and there are quite a few surprises along the way. This has been the biggest year for our podcast to date, and what better way to close things out than with this annual countdown? It’s a great conversation, and one you won’t want to miss.

Enjoy, and we will see you all again in the new year!
