This just came in right after my PlayStation one, so I figured I'd start a conversation about this one too. Given that I play my Series X much less than some of my other consoles, I was surprised to be in the top 5% for gamescore and achievements unlocked. How was your year? My highlights:

Total Time: 109 hours (Top 25% of players for hours played)
Total Games: 28
Total Gamerscore: +3322 (Top 5% of players for gamerscore)
Total Achievements: 165 (Top 5% of players in achievements)

Most Played Games:
1) Redfall- 26 hours
2) Kentucky Route Zero: TV Edition- 12 hours
3) Hi-Fi Rush- 10 hours

Had to fetch mine vs. an email from Sony, but here are my stats:

Total Time: 623 hours (Top 10% of players for hours played)
Total Games: 95
Total Gamerscore: +15735 (Top 5% of players for gamerscore)
Total Achievements: 627 (Top 5% of players in achievements)
Compared to Duke, we're both in the top 5% for the prior 2 categories but I got nearly 5x more GS and achievements unlocked, interesting, guess lots of gamers do CoD or Fortnite or whatever and earn few if any achievements in most play sessions.

Most Played Games:
Horizon 5 127 hours - I was playing this weekly from Jan -> early Sept enjoying the new seasonal challenges
Gems of War 84 hours - this is a game my wife plays on my older X1
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order 33 hours - focused on and enjoyed beating this one early in the year

My top month was January and I've barely been on my system since early Sept, but I'll be dusting the XSX off soon and hope to get a little more time in soon.

Would one of you be a dear and tell me where to find this at?

I too just went to the website as no email today.

Seeing this makes me think I have a problem.

Total time 2,197h (top 5%)
Total games 175 (there is no way this is correct, not even with all the 20 min and done games from gamepass)
Total gamerscore +25,538 (top 5%)
Total achievements 1,219 (top 5%)
2023 Rewards points +281,482
Top gameplay month February

Most Played:
Starfield 334h
Diablo IV 323h
Age of Wonders 4 227h

Since it only shows the top 3, I checked my console and it tells me the rest of the top 5 are:
Remnant 2 151h
Remnant from the ashes 134h

How was Age of Wonders 4? I’ve been curious about that one.

I mean, I didn't put 227 hours into a game I didn't enjoy playing, lol.

But yeah, its really good. It has a really nice, somewhat challenging and long campaign. And there are a ton of challenge maps and scenarios to play as well. I've never done any of the MP stuff however. That really isn't my thing. What I really enjoyed about it is how re-playable it is. Due to being able to make so many different custom champions and clans. Even playing the same story mission or challenge with a different setup plays out differently. And its a paradox interactive game, so there will be a massive amount of DLC. I haven't checked out any of it that has come out so far. But I did buy the expansion pass. So I'll come back to it after a couple more of them are out. I also really like the art for the game. And the music is really good too. If you like 4x games. But also don't like playing 4x games anymore because they get too intense and overly complicated. Then this is a game you will enjoy. You can get as deep into that as you want or play the casual mode where you don't have to micro manage every single thing in the game and just focus on your battles and win goals. They did a really good job with making it accessible to almost everyone. Which is not something 4x games are known for. Paradox also kind of did that with Crusader Kings 3 as well when they ported to console. Very streamlined both of those games on xbox.
