Favourite 55 Games of All-Time

My top 55 games of all-time, ranked!
NOTES:
- I actually think the Life is Strange remasters are inferior to their original releases, but this was the only way to have all eight chapters in one spot
- No compilation collections of like, ten games in one entry. Special Editions are allowed. LiS is technically breaking this rule, but they're basically one game anyway.
- Remasters usually will replace the originals on here if it's just the same thing but with more content and higher quality visuals
- Remakes are USUALLY counted as different games on here. Example: Pac-Man World Re-Pac and Pac-Man World would be different games on here. Same with Pokemon remakes
- Remakes that are exactly the same game except with better visuals might be considered the same on here tho. (SpongeBob: Battle for Bikini Bottom)
- I'm not ranking Deltarune because it's not finished yet, but it's going to be on here
- I'm not ranking Persona 5 Royal because I'm not finished it yet, but it's going to replace Persona 5 on here eventually

Hogwarts Legacy
Hogwarts Legacy
At its heart, a generic RPG. But the Harry Potter elements and exploration elevate it to a game worth playing for fans of the franchise, and the music is excellent.

An addictive single-player social deduction game that handles the unique genre very well. Memorable characters and very replayable gameplay are the strong points.

Pokémon Scarlet
Pokémon Scarlet
Easily the best story in a mainline Pokemon game, and there's three of them! The exploration is fun, and the Pokemon collecting feels more addictive and manageable in SV than it has in generations. The music is incredible, and the character design is great.

18

Pokémon Blue Version
Pokémon Blue Version
A memorable start for the Pokemon franchise, with catchy music, timeless gameplay, and a classic story. Has it aged? Yes. Is it still a top-tier game? In my opinion, absolutely. Might be a tough sell for today's kids, though.

Spider-Man gets an astonishingly excellent adaptation into video game form. Yuri Lowenthal is perfect as Peter Parker, and the web-swinging in both free roam and in the story mode is perfection.

Batman: Arkham City
Batman: Arkham City
One of the most replayable action-adventure games ever, thanks to the incredible world design and amazing combat system. The game also boasts a fantastic story worthy of a movie adaptation.

MVP Baseball 2005
MVP Baseball 2005
MVP Baseball 2005 was the best baseball game ever in 2005, and it's the best baseball game ever nearly twenty years later in 2024.

Batman: Arkham Knight
Batman: Arkham Knight
An incredible conclusion that elevates the fluidity of the Arkham combat and exploration to new highs. A great, engaging story, and addictive gameplay make this the best Batman game ever.

Stardew Valley

I'd go in-depth about how great this game is, and how it's the ultimate farming sim, but ConcernedApe has probably added ten new features since I started typing this. Incredible game.

It's Minecraft. You know why it's special.

A fantastic platformer with addicting, memorable levels, as well as excellent music from Canadian composer David Logan.

What more can be said about BOTW? A phenomenal evolution of the Zelda formula that excels at nearly everything it tries to do.

Persona 5
Persona 5
One of the most interesting, immersive RPGs ever, for my money. Incredible characters, fantastic level design and music, and a top-notch story.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses
Fire Emblem: Three Houses
This is arguably the most replayable game in my collection. An unbelievable story, and immersive exploration despite underwhelming graphics.

Life is Strange Remastered Collection

I prefer the original releases of these games. Life is Strange is a stunning, stunning accomplishment that will leave you thinking about it for weeks after you finish it. Life is Strange: Before the Storm is a worthy prequel that feels like an extension of the original game.
