"Negative Chromostereopsis" is one of the words I learnt this year and so are “post-truth” and “Brexit”. But while there's a lot of bad stuff to take away from this year you can also learn about the great year of games we’ve had and the SaladCast is ready to educate you. There’s also some sucky stuff for balance and fun but let’s celebrate! This special SUPER-LONG episode has us figuring the best of the best that we saw and honoring them with possibly the least prestigious GOTY on the internet.
Firewatch
A first-person mystery set in the Wyoming wilderness developed by Campo Santo, where the protagonist's only lifeline, emotionally and physically speaking, is the person on the other end of a handheld radio.
This episode has EVERYTHING. Possibly anything that's ever been said in human existence is crammed into this extra long SaladCast instalment. We’ve got running, rumours, Sonic’s Olympic garb, parking tickets, web development plugs, Zac’s eating habits, esports lifestyles, Shoutcast Radio and, in a surprise twist, video games!

Need a new diet plan for 2016? Don't eat Chocolate, play games instead. Take your mind of the sugar with the sweetness of staying alive in Alien Isolation. Eat mushrooms instead with New Super Mario Bros. 2. Simulate the feeling of being slighter further away from chocolate by going for a drive in Burnout Paradise or a greater distance in FAST Racing NEO. Grow your own chocolate alternatives that you can’t even eat in Stardew Valley. All this advice comes courtesy of the SaladCast.
