Thanks for participating. Obviously if you think it's too much work or you don't have enough games for a category, just leave it alone. For example if you only want to give your top 5 games, just do that. I'll add 10 to 6 points to them.



Game of the year 2017 so far:

5. Resident Evil VII
4. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
3. Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
2. Horizon Zero Dawn
1. Super Mario Odyssey
