Seeing the thread for Paste Magazine, it seems we're falling down the same rabbit hole as previously.
"Game X is listed. List is garbage"
"Where's Game X?"
"Game X is above Game Y? Nah"
I've always seen best of lists as ways to discover new media that I may have missed that year. I also love the diversity of picks and opinions. If every list looked the same, what's the point?
Moreover, don't people understand these lists are written by people or a group of people. They're not read outs of top MC scores. Why can't we get this?
Why do people look at these lists with such personal rancor?
