List of video games considered the best
So I was taking a look last night at some game, I believe it was Silent Hill2, wikipedia article and I found out about this list. Wikipedia being the general place where most of people look for information on the internet, this actually seems like a pretty solid list, in my view. I mean, one would say "X game in this list is my favorite" and I wouldn't ask the reason why; I would totally get it.
There are some notable absences(based on scores), like Metal Gear Solid V(Yes) or Super Mario Odyssey. Some other recent games like Persona 5, RDR2 or God of War perhaps even Smash Ultimate are not there; I guess at least one of these will show up here in a couple of years.
I don't really know how to embed the list so here's the link to the article and check back when you have your opiniong on it. Do you find this as a valid list for "The games considered the best of all time"? "No because there's no Ace Attorney in there" well that's a good point right there, but I'm gonna have to ask you to chill and think about it again.
Handhelds are also a biiiiiiiiiiiiiit absent: Only one 3DS game, Fire Emblem Awakening; two Game Boy games, TLOZ: Link's Awakening and Pokémon Red/Blue; two GBA titles which are pretty interesting, these being Advance Wars and WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgames!; no DS games in sight if we don't count Rock Band 3(I didn't even know there was a DS version). If we count Switch as a handheld, TLOZ: Breath of the Wild is there.
Fun fact! According to this, 2001 is the greatest year in gaming: Advance Wars, Animal Crossing, FFX, GT3, GTA3, Halo, Ico, Max Payne, MGS2, Rez, Silent Hill 2, Smash Melee. I mean, it sounds kinda right when you put it that way... a pace of one legendary game per month.

This is a list of video games that have consistently been ranked among the best of all time by video game journalists and critics. The games listed here are included on at least five separate "best/greatest of all time" lists from different reliable publications. While any single publication's list reflects its own taste, when the lists are taken in aggregate, a handful of notable games have achieved something approaching critical consensus by multiple appearances in such lists.
