Throughout this week,
The A.V. Club has been running our picks for the best pop culture of the first half of 2021, a celebration of art made in the long shadow of the collective miseries of the last year-plus. Our games coverage is, of course, no different, with the list of our favorite titles of the year hitting the site tomorrow morning.
