137 Our Top 5 Games of the Year for 2023

🎵 It's the most wonderful time of the year 🎵 when we rank our absolute favorite video games of 2023. We reveal our 5 favorites to each other, and to you in real time! Get ready for a few surprises, and of course some obvious choices.

Plus: E3 is officially dead. We mourn the loss of the trade show institution, and discuss what has replaced it. Colette shares her memories of being on the ground at the show for three years, from 2007 to 2010.

We also discuss a few of the announcements and trailers that caught our attention at The Game Awards, and some items we're looking forward to in 2024 and beyond.
