The NOCLIP Awards 2022 - Glory to Video Games

For accomplishments in ball smashing We are closing out yet another year, and like your New Year’s resolution or the mirror in your bathroom the day after a New Year’s Eve party, it’s time for some necessary but unwanted reflection. We had a year of pretty diverse games this time around, and so we have further complicated our awards, giving them inscrutable titles and measuring more abstract criteria than ever before. Not to say we don’t weigh in on quality, as our best and worst of the year are on display mixed in with our coolest ancient artifacts and Bunta Eve Classic awards. So prepare your bingo cards, drinking games, or your own lists and settle in to find out our thoughts on what was interesting about games in 2022, and what interesting games from 1998 can be made relevant with a silly awards category. Thank you for joining us this week and this year! I hope you enjoy the awards and have had some unique experiences as well. We’re going to be taking a short break through the month of January, with only a pocket release coming up, but be sure to get in your suggestions for Fanbruary before the end of the month. We’re excited to see what we end up playing this year. Until that time, happy New Year!
