[SunBroDave]

Solid ass list

 

[Moist_Owlet]

Terrible list

 

[Masoyama]

No Death Stranding or Outer Worlds anywhere and Disco Elysium is high on the list. Good list.

 

[Conkerkid11]

Astral Chain was robbed.

Good list though. Completely forgot about Mario Maker due to it not being in like any lists at all.

 

[Deleted member 10737]

great list imo.

 

[Deleted member 864]

Really good list, nice to see A Plague Tale on there, as well as FE in the top 3.

[Sleve McDichael]

A damn fine list.
They got #1 right.

 

[airbagged_]

What is up with people immediately posting "No Death Stranding or Outer Worlds: Good List" or some variation of it? Come on.

 

[Damn Silly]

A Plague Tale sneaks into yet another list, let's go.

Didn't expect the Trials Rising mention, that game seem like it came and went very quickly without much notice.

 

[Deleted member 13645]

Any list that recognizes Control automatically gets my approval, even if they left off Outer Wilds which is one of the best games ever released.

 

[Pein]

Is the first list with RE2 at the top?

(Joking but not really)

:P Maybe it was you and I just saw it repeatedly but wow... THEY'RE NOT BAD GAMES (imho). I guess I respect the consistency.

 

[StrappingYoungLance]

No Luigi's Mansion 3, what is this GARBAGE?

For real though solid list, good to see RE2 in that top spot.

 

[Doggg]

Solid list.

 

[Deleted member 10737]

Is the first list with RE2 at the top?

Click to shrink...

no, 11th.

 

[Soul Lab]

Luigi's Mansion 3 is missing.
Solid list tho

 

[Roytheone]

Is the first list with RE2 at the top?

No, on goty picks blog it is in third currently with 11 wins.

 

[Big G]

I like the way the top two looks, but I can't find Outer Wilds on here so it's a good list but not great list.

 

[Titanpaul]

How is Goose Game on anyone's top list? It's a fun novelty, but one of the best games of the year?

[KLoWn]

Both Fire Emblem AND Astral Chain? Good list.

 

[Caiops]

Great list.

RE2 deserves.

 

[Seahawk64]

Where's Luigis Mansion 3?
otherwise good list.

 

[misho8723]

Nice of them to include Metro Exodus here.. that game deserves much more

 

[Deleted member 8784]

One of the better rankings I've seen. Some good picks.

 

[Mcfrank]

This and the game awards is making me realize how much I missed this year since I was almost exclusively playing Destiny. Played through Fallen Order and am about 2 hours into Control now. I have a lot of catching up to do.

 

[Dullahan]

Number one! YASSSS!

 

[Deleted member 14377]

Goose Game is a fun meme novelty that will fall aside like your Hello Neighbors, Goat Simulators, Five Nights and Bendy's.

I love the internet

 

[Deleted member 2145]

can't argue with that list, great year for games

 

[Deleted member 10737]

i kinda forgot that trials came out this year. i should get it the next time it goes on sale.

 

[falcondoc]

LM3?

 

[Genesius]

They got #1 right, how refreshing.

 

[King Dodongo]

Great list, only Luigi was missing there.

 

[Ricker]

Not a bad list but again no Days Gone...? jesus.

 

[Lotus]

Cool list, also damn Death Stranding got snubbed hard

 

[V0ltg]

Damn, it's like DMC5 never existed.

 

[Sparks]

Pokemon Sword and Shield? PICK ONE COWARDS!

Is Plague Tale really that good? I got to play that...

 

[N.47H.4N]

They got the first right.

 

[Corporate Clown]

I personally would put Death standing and Luigi's Mansion on there, but Resident Evil 2 is #1 so I can't complain too much.

 

[Rosebud]

Good list. Many japanese games and Disco love

 

[pswii60]

Fallen Order below the likes of Metro Exodus?

Nah.

Untitled Goose Game had more presence than 99% of games released this year. It reached past typical gaming audiences.

It also had some of my favorite gaming moments of the year. Showing it to friends and solving some of the tasks was immensely satisfying. It is also simply unique and well made.

Deserves every bit of recognition it is getting.

 

[thisismadness]

I completely forgot Mario Maker 2 came out this year.

 

[Van Bur3n]

Sekiro THAT low?

No! Sekir-noooooooooooooooooooo!

 

[Deleted member 59109]

Oof. Completely disagree as usual

 

[ScreamingMadden]

Nice list. Happy to see 3 Houses at number 3 and SMM2 ain't far behind.

 

[Bundy]

Yeah, not a good list.
