The end of the year is nigh. OK, it's only Thanksgiving, but that also means we're only a few weeks out from ringing in 2020. It's when I need to start thinking about game of the year, and begin budgeting time accordingly. No one can play everything, so my best bet is to randomly guess what games might make an impression, check out what HowLongtoBeat has to say about the hours needed to see them all the way through , and go from there.
Here's what else is on my list, knowing full well that I won't get to a lot (most) of it, which is why I've done some research on HowLongtoBeat and attached my level of confidence as to whether I will, realistically, be able to spend any time with that game, let alone truly finish it:
Many things are taking place:

Eduardo, who's tall with curly hair, is something of a scholar of the game. He's a five out of five on KQDFW's skill-rating scale and a student of strategy. You need only ask and he'll load you down with videos to watch, Twitch streams to follow, and tactics to try. Then there's Rosalinda Olivares, for whom expanding KQDFW membership is her "single biggest objective." She's a "scene mom," one of the leaders of the community, and she helps preside over the meetups at Cidercade.
The best video games of the decade - the top 50 games from 2010-2020, ranked - VG247
You don't realise how long ten years is until you sit back and take stock of what's happened in the space of a decade.
The same goes for video games – the gaming landscape has changed in those ten years, with many developers now focusing on building games that will last a decade, rather than be consumed and forgotten, in the form of service games.
Since we don't get many chances to look at a decade as a whole, we thought it'd be nice to look back on the past ten years in video games and select what we consider the best of the best, ranking them all to boil some piss.
Competitive video games bringing Suns' Devin Booker back to glory days
PHOENIX — It’s 12:30 p.m. and gameday against the Los Angeles Lakers for the Phoenix Suns.

Much of what experts have learned about ammonoids is thanks to their hard shells which survive more readily in the fossil record. Now, techniques borrowed from engineering, physics and even video games are helping experts envision and examine these extinct animals in ways never before possible.
Paleontologists expect that all ammonoids squirted jets of water to propel themselves shell-first through the seas. In the past, University of Utah paleontologist Kathleen Ritterbush says, researchers would place physical ammonoid models in water tanks to get an idea of how the invertebrates moved. But new technology, presented this week at an American Physical Society meeting, has allowed scientists to take their ammonoid swimming experiments a step further.
