What is Game of the Month Club Replay?

Game of the Month Replay is a community project based upon the Game of the Month Club. Much like the GOTM Club, it's open to all B8ers where users share, discover, play and/or discuss a bonus chosen game every month. The three games featured each month are chosen by YOU the users (and Lady Luck).

The only catch is, it must be a game that the GOTM Club has already played, so it's an opportunity to replay games you may have missed out on the first time or just want to try again.

The Basics

- Each month will usually feature three games that were chosen via a random drawing from a pool of games that users nominated
- For each of the games you beat you get a cool point on our just-for-fun standings as well as a nomination for next month's randomized drawing
- In order to receive the point and nomination, you must beat said game within the calendar month
- If you beat one of the current month's games in the previous month, you can apply for a "recently beaten waiver," but you will only receive a point and no nomination should you do so
- Drawing for next month's game is usually on the 25th
- If you periodically keep us posted on your progress and/or talk about different aspects of the games, then everyone will think you are super awesome!

Nomination Rules

- You get one nomination automatically each month
- You receive additional nominations each month for beating one of the featured games
- Each game you nominate has to be one that was already nominated for the GOTM Club.
- You can nominate games that have already been selected for the Replay Topic, but not the same game twice in a row.
- Each game must be a standalone game that can be acquired and played on its own (aka cannot be DLC/expansion that requires the base game)
- Nominations only carry over if you beat a featured game after the drawing for next month's game but before the end of the month
- You have 9 supports you can use throughout the year. Your only limitations are that you can't support your own nomination, and you can only use one support per game per month

Thanks to KCF0107 for giving permission for the GOTM Club Replay topic to exist. Most of the rules of the Replay Topic are the same as the GOTM club.

Sorry for the delay getting the topic up, and thanks for bumping the old one.

I'm just going to nominate a short and sweet game that I like to replay from time-to-time that recently was dropped on Game Pass.

A Short Hike

Tag for F-Zero this month.

Got the Oto ending in Hatoful Boyfriend. Not sure if I feel like going for any others.

Working on Cthuhlu now.

Beat Cthuhlu Saves the World. Might do F-Zero just to say I did them all.

Good luck, iirc F-Zero is hard as heck.

Game of the Moth

F-Zero beated?

I finished all 3 cups on Beginner with the Blue Falcon. It's a tough, annoying game that's not too bad other than the last stage on King League, Fire Field. That was the only one I need to save state after a lap because there was no fucking way I was getting it done otherwise. The "lap traffic" cars are just the bane of my fucking existence.

Needless to say, X and GX are far, FAR superior games.

I tried a little F-Zero, but didn't feel like going for it.

Noms:
Grim Fandango
Princess Remedy in a World of Hurt
SaGa Frontier

Beat
Cthuhlu Saves the World - Mauron
F-Zero - Seanchan
Hatoful Boyfriend - Mauron

Nominations
A Short Hike - KCF0107
Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling - FakeAccount3000
Grim Fandango - Mauron
Klonoa - Kenri
Princess Remedy in a World of Hurt - Mauron
Saga Frontier - Mauron

Got the nominations in, doing the pull as soon as it hits the 26th; I'm just giving people one last chance to nominate since I didn't do so earlier. In my time zone that's about 7 hours from now.

August Game of the Moth Club: Bug Fables, Hollow Knight, Creepy Castle

Sorry, you only get one nomination per month unless you've played a game and gotten extra ones. You also can't nominate games that haven't been on this list - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/d/1X8E8oqzES42W4S82j7WTfNnzNa8c3uXdSE1rnqYG7WM such as Creepy Castle.

The good news is that you can nominate Hollow Knight, and everyone gets 9 supports per year so you can also support Bug Fables. Unfortunately you can't nominate or support Creepy Castle, but two out of three is pretty good if you don't mind doing it that way. Thanks for posting. :)

oh no you're going to feel so silly about this

Pardon? I'm not sure what you mean.

I'm making a joke about moths. it's a joke about moths

Nominate:
Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Stick it to the Man

KCF has beaten Hatoful Boyfriend

I last played this in 2016 when I don't believe that cloud saves were a feature, or at least a wide-spread one, on Steam, so all of my dating history was wiped. I romanced like six of them. Thank god for a good fast forward/skip button

For my last nom, I will choose Yooka-Laylee

Saga Frontier, Stick it to the Man and Yooka-Laylee have been chosen! Congratulations to the winners!

Beat
Cthuhlu Saves the World - Mauron
F-Zero - Seanchan
Hatoful Boyfriend - Mauron, KCF0107

Those are the games beaten this month, so I'll be adding that to the scores in the next topic.

Cody has beaten F-Zero

I've had a busy as hell month, but managed to squeeze that in this week. It was pretty hard but I enjoyed it more than I expected, the F-Zero series has a fun formula even here. Nearly half my time was just on Fire Field, but I enjoyed the challenge.

I will second this though, move out of the way you're down a lap!
