GNamer Fantasy Games League (And your Year Four winner is...)

Oof, that's rough for Jimbob. Two games unreleased with Town not exactly looking promising either... I hope you pick up a big one for your last game, Jimmers!

He's also going to be on minus 20 points from Gears 5.

It’s not looking too bright for me here. I was confident that Animal Crossing would come out this year, but once we’d heard about Link’s Awakening, Sword/Shield and others, I sort of gave up hope. The Last of Us Part 2 was more out of hope than expectation – whenever it’s out, it seems destined to score really, really highly. It’s gone quiet with Streets of Rage 4 and Super Meat Boy Forever as well. I expect my other games to do all right, but I was mostly leaning on Animal Crossing and TLOU2. That’s probably the whole thing humped now.

Rough on Jimbob though -ooft!

Well, all my games will be the greatest games of 2020.
I can't think of another game that actually exists!

Might be worth having a trawl through the Games List on the site to see if there's anything that takes your fancy.

September has like a million games coming out, just pick one of those.

Not that it'll matter... Cadence of Hyrule seems to be doing very well for itself.

Next year's league is going to be a big one, for sure! I'll definitely be increasing the number of games for each member to pick up as the bidding stage hasn't been as interesting as I'd have hoped.

Next year should just 50/50 with bidding as look at these games Animal Crossing, Cyberpunk, Ori 2, FDVIIR, Watch Dogs Legion, Avengers, Halo 6 and seems Last of Us 2 is coming February, Ghost of Tsushima more than likely is 2020 and two new consoles with launch games.

I've made a bid for my last game, whether I've sniped it off Jay or not remains to be seen.

I hope not... I have no money to guarantee myself my game! Supposedly the bids process tonight, so I guess I'll need to wait until the morning to see if I've been successful or not.

Mario Maker 2, has done rather well with 88. Meaning my last three games also all need to score 88, and Pokémon has to score 0 and I'd beat Jay by 1 point.

Optimistic, I'd say!

I think it's just Jimbob left to round out his roster - you can openly spitball ideas if you're struggling Jimmers, we're all full up on games so we couldn't even steal your pick if we tried!

You've got Control from Remedy, Blair Witch, Ghost Recon, Modern Warfare to name a few.

I reckon there still might be a surprise release to pick up too. Away: The Survival Series was a tempting pick for my last one although that might be next year.

I nearly went for this and plumped for Judgment instead.

Fine, I made a bid. That's the right thing to do, right?

Let's see if it pays off!

Well no one can out bid ya

I've never heard of your final game Jim, but I must admit that considering the dev was posting on Twitter about still being in development and testing of the game, I'm not sure I fancy your chances...!

Big week coming up for Andy with FE:TH and Youngblood approaching.

Yeah when I saw he picked that, I was wondering why as I can't see it coming out.

Jimbob is playing for the first draft pick in the 2020 league - he's thinking five steps ahead.

That's some GNamer Fantasy Grandmaster-level play right there.

It's because I'm bloody self-conscious and didn't want to pick any of the ones you suggested

This forum needs more Father Ted .gifs.

There's something to be said for championing your favourites - I either have played or want to play most of the games I drafted and the two which I've little interest in have scored the lowest out of my bunch. Go with your heart is the moral of this story.
