2023 was a blockbuster year for video games, the likes of which we'll probably not see again any time soon. So before we flip the calendar to 2024, let's take a moment to remember the best of the best of an absolutely epic year of new titles.

We'll also be discussing how China is in damage-control mode after its crackdown on video games sparked an $80 billion market meltdown, how researchers in Germany recently published a study that found video games may be able to help treat cognitive symptoms of major depressive disorder, and the ten worst games of 2023 according to Metacritic.

Finally, class is in session with Professor Ryebread in our Gaming History 101 segment. In this episode, we're looking at the career and legacy of the notorious gaming hype maker Peter Molyneux.
