This is completely unrelated but I just started making a backloggery account, wish I've been using this for years since there's no way I'm going to go back and add past games

I have no idea what gamefaqs opinions are. so I just go with my heart. And now Gamefaqs forces me to chose between Super Metroid and LttP.

I thought about making an account there a couple years ago, but for the most part I don't think gaming should be plotted out and scheduled like some sort of business agenda. Gaming should come naturally.

I just bought a crapload of games so it's good to not lose sight of it, personally. I do this anyone all the time on pen/paper and the notes app so this is an easier way for more. I'm a loser though and track this stuff for all media (keep a spreadsheet updated of every movie I saw and the day I saw it)

I keep a notes app list of upcoming games I plan to buy so I guess a backloggery at this point wouldn't be too much of a stretch...

I don't entirely remember, but I'm pretty sure Ocarina of Time has won these in the past... Its a safe choice to make, methinks.

Ocarina of Time still hasn't recovered from the epic beatdown Egoraptor dished out, and neither have its fans. If it comes down to OOT vs FF7, I think Final Fantasy is the safer bet.

Plus with the remake coming out, and with people playing FF7 for the first time on Steam... Its not looking good for Link.
