No Psychonauts 2 means the list is irrelevant. :|

at least they didn't nominate Twelve Minutes, I guess?

If people on ERA thought they had enough of FF14 fans singing it's praises, just you wait until more people start finishing Endwalker.

Didn't know Hitman 3 was that strong. That game went under the radar for me or I was living under a rock I guess.

Come on, no Psychonauts 2 is ridiculous. It's the highest reviewed game of the year not called Forza Horizon.

Here I was thinking Death's Door would be the game I most disagreed with seeing on a bunch of GOTY lists this year, but no, it's for sure Ratchet. Happy for the people that enjoyed it, really wish I did too, but it was just a huge bummer to me all around.

Chicory is being robbed in all of these lists and it's a shame

Forza Horizon 5 is this year's Ori and the Will of the Wisps. I see it on a list, I like it.

We have to stop using this argument. Otherwise, what is the point in having the system at all, we might as well just give it to the highest reviewed game and call it a day. Especially if it is from one singular outlet. It is possible for a game to review well and also not vibe with the majority of a site.

Currently playing RE Village. That is the only game on the list I have played. This has been a bad year for new "big" releases for me. So little I am interested in.
Although, I am interested in Returnal and Metroid Dread, some day.

Hitman 3 for me, also got the 1st two games imported into H3 so they all blend into one for me lol.

Yeah I mean, I'm not talking the whole thing too seriously. I just love Psychonauts 2 lol. IGN can do whatever they want!

That list is... fine really. It's a bit obvious, I probably would have replaced a couple of things with Psychonauts 2 and Guilty Gear Strive, but I could see the case for all of these easily.

I've only just started it, but already I'm liking Psychonauts 2 more than Ratchet and Clank. Ratchet looks stunning, but the gameplay loop got old and the story was whatever.

Honestly curious, why was it a bummer for you? It wasn't my GOTY but it was extremely well made and a lot of fun.
