Greatest Video Games by Year (Revision Version)

Well usually we wait the end of the awards season so circa March 2025 to start submitting these lists so things can change by then. For now I am thinking FFVll's popularity win is bigger than Astro Bot's acclaim win.

Think Helldivers should be higher, that game was a sensation when it came out. Otherwise hell yeah, good year.

Well usually we wait the end of the awards season so circa March 2025 to start submitting these lists so things can change by then. For now I am thinking FFVll's popularity win is bigger than Astro Bot's acclaim win.

Where can you find FF's sales? Because it seems the official numbers are undisclosed, seemingly because they were lower than expected. The biggest I've found is 2 million, which is not a lot more than Astro Bot's 1,5 million, especially since FF has a much bigger fanbase.

[Tim]

Yeah I might have jumped the gun on the popularity criterion. They appear to be close in both popularity & acclaim as I see it.

Since the awards season is over, figured I will give ranking 2024 list another shot:

1. Astro Bot
2. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
3. Balatro
4. Black Myth: Wukong
5. Helldivers 2
6. Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
7. Metaphor: ReFantazio
8. UFO 50
9. Silent Hill 2
10. Persona 3 Reload

Looks good to me, although maybe Silent Hill is one or two slots too low?

[Tim]

I am not opposed to Silent Hill moving up. Man, Sherick?

[ManPerson]

Looks fine.
