I want to say Horizon Zero Dawn but I think I enjoyed Persona 5 even more (more relaxing). I may have nothing new left to play for the rest of the year but I got two excellent games at the beginning.
Odd thing is I'd probably give Horizon game of the year and it is my second favorite series (since Sony wanted to make it one if it was successful enough and I'm sure it was I already am confident it will get a second one). It's just that Persona was more relaxing and I really enjoyed a more laid back, enjoy the story game.

Bah, this is difficult. I'll give it a shot.
1. Persona 5
2. Nioh
3. Horizon Zero Dawn
4. Breath of the Wild
5. Resident Evil VII
It'll probably change once Super Mario Odyssey is out.

Stuck between BotW and Persona 5 at the moment but also haven't beaten either yet o we'll see. Major props to Yakuza 0 and Nier Automata which would have been easy GOTY's almost any other year. God 2017 has been amazing for video games.

Horizon.
Zelda and possibly even PuBG are also up there.

I finished three games since this thread was made, and out of Horizon, BOTW, and Persona 5. My GOTY is definitely Persona 5.

The only 2017 games I've played are Little Nightmares and Rime. Loved both but giving Rime the nod. It's such a fun world to explore. Im going back through on a second playthrough right now and doing achievements and collectibles.
Sadly I have yet to play breath of the wild or I'm pretty sure that would be my game of the year. Got tired of waiting for it to come out and traded in my wii u. Finances are too tight to get a switch right now when im thinking about getting a 4k tv this fall. So that's where I'm at with gaming at the moment.

Horizon Zero Dawn for me I think. Brand new game but meticulously made. I had no bugs or crashes - it just worked and it was enjoyable for me from start to finish. It's not for everyone of course because nothing is for everyone. Great game.

Resident Evil 7. For the first time in years I've actually played the game from start to finish.
Still waiting for Not A Hero DLC though...

1. Horizon: Zero Dawn - the story pushed it ahead of No 2 for me
2. Zelda: BOTW - I had great fun with the game but in the end it just did offer me the story density I like
3. Persona 5

Breath of the Wild. The game is an absolute masterpiece!
Horizon Zero Dawn, by far. I thought maybe Uncharted The Lost Legacy could replace it as my favorite...but while it was a great game, it didn't quite manage to outshine Horizon.
Now I don't think there is any game scheduled this year that could outshine it. I very much doubt AC Origins will from what I saw so far...

I can't *believe* these lazy developers keep making file sizes so damn large. Btw, how does technology work?
Surprised at all the Horizon posts.... that's awesome. I skipped out on the game because it was releasing right next to Zelda and I still had Nioh and Gravity Rush to play. I should really considering picking up Zero Dawn.
That said, no way does it top my #1 this year: Breath of the Wild. Zelda on Switch (and WiiU) isn't just the best game of the year, it's arguably sitting right next to Bloodborne as the game of the generation. No doubt, it's the best open world game of all time.
But, second place would go to Sonic Mania, for sure. It's incredible, too.
No matter how you slice it, this has been a phenomenal year for games.

Horizon ZD is still the best game I've played this year.
Resident Evil 7. Survival Horror is one of my favorite genres, and RE7 is by far the best attempt at it this generation. It's also the only game I've replayed multiple times this year. So good! BOTW would be my runner-up, but I was really disappointed with certain aspects of it (mainly very poor dungeons and bosses that rank as perhaps the worst of the series, NES games aside, of course). Overworld exploration was aces, though (even if I wish there was some actual overworld music while you explored).

BoTW . Was there any other interesting major release beside that? Waiting for Wolfenstein 2, Everybodies Golf, Gran Turismo ( if there is weather tracks , or else they can kiss my ass ), COD WWII. Going to wait for the 20$ pit for REVII and maybe Horizon, but seriously, nothing made me drop on the floor more than BoTW.
