We survived 2017!

Happy new year PodCavern friends! Last year was quite the ride (to say the least) of wild ups and downs. Somewhere in all that chaos, video games decided to have one of the best year of releases and we’re here today to celebrate that! Join Tuong La and gaming nerds Ethan Howieson, Tyler Furness, and Kevin Weiler as we deliberate on the best video games that came out in 2017.

Ground Rules

Games must have come out in 2017

If the expansion came out in 2017 then we would count the expansion

It must be actually released (1.0 +) and not in beta

DLC counts but we would be nominating the DLC only and not the game as whole if it came out another year
