Perfect.
Perfect.
Did this ever happen? It doesn't seem to be on the site still.
AHHHH FINISH I WANT IT!It's in the final drafting stages, so yes. I'm currently proofreading it.
knowing HG101, this is gonna be the most Japanese-heavy ass list...
^Are you Kurt Kalata? I was alaways curious, how is possible to like Sparkster more than the original RKA?

How is the presentation? Is there concept/official artwork or is it just screenshots ripped from the games?
PS. Advance Wars: Days of Ruin? HG101 PLS
Ah, thanks. That looks fantastic! I think I prefer the two-page entries over the single page entries just a tad bit (I especially like the box art covers for both Japan and NA), but beggars can't be choosers.Both (official artwork that is). This blog entry is from several months ago but it shows how the pages are laid out. It's pretty uniform throughout.

Don't tell me you're a Dual Strike fan because just UGH
Are the red bars in the interior shots actually there in print?
I really hope not.
Sucks that you can't get Kindle Matchbook on the B&W edition. Any chance of fixing that?
If we want to discuss the book should we do it here, in a new thread or what? How much can we talk without spoiling?

It's your thread so can you PM one and put the list in your OP?Title change is probably all that is needed. Maybe a mod will do us the honor of changing it from 'coming November' to available now.

It's for that exact reason as to why this book doesn't have any ranking order and they also have games that are similar to their picks so there's still "honorable mentions" for the most part.These lists are kind of pointless. Worse they make for some of the worst discussion on any forum. Every other post is "X is too high/low" and "No X? List fail.".

- Personally I would have barred anything from 2015, but no big deal.

This list is unranked, so your first example actually doesn't apply.

Bah Amazon.com's $35 for free shipping strikes again. Will get this down the line, wishlisting for now.
Doh! Does that mean if I increase it by a cent, it'll become eligible?
(Though sometimes Amazon does discount them down the road anyway so it would end up making it ineligible regardless.)
Correct.
Only notable thing that jumped out to me. I'm always iffy on this. On the one hand, it's always a matter of opinion so any inclusion can be justified, but on the other hand, I feel like it's hard to really get a handle on a game until a decent time after its release.

eh, this response satisfies me enough. I think that's fair.Originally this was the case (we started back in January 2015). The two 2015 titles (Bloodborne and The Witcher III) were originally planned for Dark Souls and The Witcher II, but when it came to write the pieces, the authors decided the newer games were better. Any of the other 2015 games (Axiom Verge, Undertale, and a few 2014 ones like Alien Isolation and Divinity Original Sin) ended up in the runners-up section at the end.
I like this approach as well. I think it makes thinking about even my own favorite games hard. I could sit here and sing the lauds of the entire Persona or GTA or Pokemon series, but it's an interesting thought process to just narrow it down to one.They included Majora's Mask and they have an "honorable mentions / like this" sections. They mentioned that they're trying to avoid games that are too similar to each other and must have felt that they could only afford to pick one of Majora & OoT. For example, they mentioned that even though SMB3 & SMW are both amazing games, they're close enough to each other that they only picked one of them.
Then why are you here? To tell us our discussion is pointless?I am talking about list threads in general. There isnt really much discussion to be had in them. Either omission/presence or ranking.
