Hard disagree. In fact that entire list is pretty yikes.

 

[Lant_War]

You mean the ultra focus tested singleplayer game of a major console manufacturer won? No shit.

 

[Toumari]

Correct choice won.

Not really. 2 - 10 are great choices

 

[DieH@rd]

Yup.

 

[Pein]

pretty good list.

 

[Brix]

Ah yes they got #1 correct. Congrats naughty dog. Happy to see Bloodborne, dark souls, Witcher 3, god of war, & Zelda in the top 10.

 

[BadWolf]

The butthurt will be strong.

Can't wait for TLOU2.

 

[Kyoufu]

Deserved.

 

[Mezoly]

Cinematic games bias shows up again.

but for real, well deserved for TLOU and Naughty Dog.

 

[Whatislove]

I mean I don't think it's the right choice but I can understand why people would choose it. For me it's God of War.

 

[BadWeddingSpeech]

I mean, thats a pretty good list at least with respect to what is on it (not necessarily the order).

I wouldn't have put TLoU that high (and seriously that high), but meh.

 

[Deleted member 864]

That's a strong list overall.

 

[steviestar3]

Barf

 

[Van Bur3n]

FromSoftware and Rockstar having two games in the top ten, bruv.

 

[Mediking]

Nah. This aint it

Not for me, Jack.

 

[Chumunga64]

Yup, these are highly rated games that would all be choices that would make me go "sounds about right"

don't' really have anything interesting to say here lmao

Waiting for the salt...

Disagree. The list is pretty solid.

 

[supkid]

3 Sony exclusives, and 2 of them being new IPs (with only 1 other new IP on the list) probably shows why Sony were way ahead in the new IP vote as well.

No wait needed it seems.

Hard disagree. This list is fantastic.

 

[Deleted member 59109]

Was completely meh on that game, couldn't force myself to play for more than half an hour.

 

[Deleted member 426]

Resetera's tastes are soooooo weird. This seems like one of a handful of fairly obvious choices

 

[Vondudu]

331 persons only ???
not really relevent the audit sample he's so small

 

[Couscous]

Three of the best games are the top 3 so I can't really complain.

 

[Deleted member 10737]

congrats to tlou for winning metacritic's user vote

 

[Deleted member 54073]

Correct choice.

 

[Trace]

Pretty expected list. Top AAA games, with a slight bias towards newer games.

 

[TheRulingRing]

Well it's the best one on that list for me.

Hard disagree. In fact that entire list is pretty yikes.

This take is pretty yikes.

 

[The Unsent]

Best acted story maybe, definitely not best game. Not very innovative, rather repetitive encounters.

 

[OG_Thrills]

Talent always wins.

 

[Deleted member 49535]

Not even 2 pages and so much salt already, Jesus.

 

[AzureFlame]

The Last of Us is great but not top 5 worthy imo, the no2-4 deserved it tho.

 

[Deleted member 12833]

Poor BOTW 😜

 

[Rosebud]

Loved that list, just lack some indies

HOW MANY LADDERS DO JOEL NEED? HUH?

....

Just joking...

 

[teague]

Popular best-selling games continue to be popular, weather at 7

 

[The Unsent]

Not even 2 pages and so much salt already, Jesus.

Maybe it's ok for people to disagree.

 

[SeriousGoku]

In a landslide too.

Well deserved.

TLOU 2 will be a fucking masterpiece as well.

 

[Indelible]

Great list, I enjoyed the hell out of all those games.

 

[SofNascimento]

Mass Effect 2 being in the top5 is incredibly impressive. Not only it was released in January 2010, but neither ME3 and that unnatural fuckery called Andromeda did it many favors.

Yet people still remember it fondly.

Truly a fantastic game.

 

[Kalentan]

This list is totally yikes. It's not in an order that is exactly the same as mine. Therefore it is bad and they should feel bad.

 

[Aokiji]

This thread is going about as well as expected

 

[Lightjolly]

Metacritic users hah , you mean the ones that review bomb any game not available on their platform of choice?

Oh boy Dark Souls all the way down there

 

[baron doggystyle von woof]

I have to agree. I had so much fun with the game. Finished it every year at least once.

 

[petethepanda]

Not my #1 but certainly not the type of game I'd complain about seeing in the spot. (Helps that my likely #1 is right below it.)
