And here we are friends, at the end of our third-annual Game of the Year awards ceremony. We laughed, we cried and we certainly didn’t argue as much about the placement of 2011′s games as we had in 2010. This is a good thing. By a near-unanimous vote (meaning three out of five of us [...]

Only three games are left to cap-off 2011′s best of the best. Well, we should be more specific and write that only one game is left after you finish reading this entry. And no, number one is not Minecraft.

We’ve reached the halfway point for our top 10 games of 2011! Boy, were there a lot of sequels last year or what? At least we liked them.

Did you miss us? Because wow, we sure missed you. It’s been a few months, but we’re back with another top-ten list for the year that was 2011. Just as we did in 2009 and 2010, all five of us met one day in late December and spent hours debating what we felt to be [...]

It’s hard to think of a great way to start this post, but here goes: This is the 300th published post on Silicon Sasquatch. It’s not a gigantic milestone but I feel writing that much is at least noteworthy, if not praiseworthy. So, thank you. Silicon Sasquatch has been a labor of love for a [...]

Don’t call it a comeback? We’ve been through down periods before, and we’ve come back stronger before, but this one feels good. We’ve got a four-man strong Backlog that is incredibly lengthy (helped along by Tyler’s mini-article about RPGs) and features as disparate things as L.A. Noire, Fallout 3, Chrono Trigger, LAN parties, Doug’s sports [...]

Dan Phipps, long a friend of Sasquatch editors Doug and Nick, is not just a good buddy but also a diehard gamer and generalized nerd. Equally at home behind a console controller, PC keyboard or 20-sided die, he has an intelligent and irreverent [...]

We’re proud to present the best game of 2010, as determined by the Silicon Sasquatch collective under the arduous sort of secrecy most commonly associated with a papal conclave:

In our penultimate update, we discuss the third- and second-best games of 2010 in great detail. They couldn’t be more different, but they’re both fantastic experiences that take big risks and push the medium forward in significant and often unexpected ways. Let’s check it out, yo.
