How can they do a 2025 review when its still 2025? These reviews are getting earlier and earlier. Its becoming like the 2k games where you are buying 2k26 in the middle of 2025.

I'm one bad life event away from buying arma reforger. Please God be good to me next year. I cannot handle an arma addiction right now.

Buddy, NHL '94 on SNES came out in 1993, and NHLPA '93 came out a year earlier in 1992. Every year, cars come out with the next year's model.

I think 2 weeks before the end of the year is pretty reasonable for a year's review. That's how everybody's been doing reviews for a long time.

Why would you not dive into something that you clearly want man? Just do it!

Let it be the bad life event that it saves you from lol

Because i already have squad and the games are 1hr which is manageable. I cannot manage 7hr arms games

The review period runs from January 1 - December 14; I think that's a pretty solid snapshot of a year.

The thing that gets me is they don't count any offline time, so my hours of playing sitting in my vehicle don't get logged.
