My Favorite Games

Give or take, a list of my favorite games of all time right now.

There are several works here that represent entire series, either for aesthetic preference for a specific box art or to unclutter and diversify the list.
Such entries include each When They Cry series, Tsukihime (representing the original trilogy and the remake), Metal Gear Solid 2 (my favorite of the trilogy but it's all rather close together), and Tsui no Sora (representing the original and the remake).

@AWACS_Lucio Wow, man, really appreciate the kind words. I dig the succinctness of a lot of your writing - I see the Pixies comparison in there. If you're on Discord, drop your tag and we can definitely chat sometime.
