Resident Evil 4: Remake is GOTY 2023
I hope Star Ocean gets some love
Surprise to see you guys rank Hi Fi Rush and Spider-man so low but to each their own. Fastening list for sure with some great games.
Of course they put starfield ahead of pretty much every other Nintendo and Sony exclusive. NOT SURPRISED.
Look, the game's good but it's not better than most of this list. I'm not even convinced it's worthy of a top 20 spot. Furthermore the fact that Mario Bros wonder and Spider-Man are so far down the list (Both below Starfield) is pretty damning. I guess subjective opinions and all but I can ALWAYS count on scott to artificially inflate the value of Xbox. Always.
1. Lies of P
2. Resident Evil Remake
3. Alan Wake II
4. Blasphemous 2
5. Dead Space Remake
(yes, it was a good year for survival horror and soulslikes)
Please add timestamps to your list videos
Mine (not in any order):
•Dead Space Remake
•Resident Evil 4
•Star Wars Jedi: Survivor
•Hi-Fi Rush
•Starfield
•Spider-Man 2
•Baldur’s Gate 3
•Dead Island 2
So a DLC like Mirage gets a spot but a complete game like Dead Space Remake doesn't, neither did Octopath Traveler 2.
Why people keep saying 2023 was a good year for gaming? There was just Hi-Fi, Dredge, Alan Wake 2 and Baldurs Gate 3. The rest is "meh". Celebrating the death of creativity with glorifying "more of the same" games and remakes as good games just shows the sick state of gaming in these days. Maybe even Starfield because of the realistic setting and believable presentation of early phase of colonising the universe but it is basically a Fallout 4 so… probably not. It does not fit into the "more of the same" category as Zelda, Spider-man or Phantom Liberty but it is right behind the borders of this box.
RE4 at 4? You guys are idiots
You really put those 3 trash games especially a stupud Zelda title over RE4. Yeah make it make sense
Starfield is not that good lol
The Avatar game didn't get in the top 20 because it was released only a few days ago right? Cause that deserves a lot. Also, where the hell is Hogwarts Legacy?
Listen guys, I'm a huge Bethesda fan and have been playing Skyrim on and off since 2011 pretty much, but how much did Bethesda pay you for putting Starfield above Final Fantasy 16.
Remnant 2 was absolutely incredible!!
I wonder how long it'll take for the comments section to be flooded with people upset about how low you ranked Spider-Man 2
Starfield ish trash
Hogwart's Legacy was better than a third or more of this list. Shame how it's being dismissed
So no walking dead destinies?
dredge and trash field ranked higher than spider man 2 trash list
Starefield is #7?!?!? Maybe 15 years ago, but not in 2023. There is a reason why the game has failed to score any games awards….or even barely get nominated for them.
Ah. Tis great to see Josh again. However brief ☺️ Happy Christmas WC. Thanks for another great year of gaming goodness 🎄✨
The Day before not on the list? Rubbish
Reactionary edgy list, of course, it was going to go this way, would not expect anything less. Love that hogwarts got boycotted from the list 😂 . Childish. Alan Wake II in the top 5. The character got sidelined in his own game 😂 . I enjoyed all your takes as they were to be expected. Farcical 😂. Top TWENTY games of 2023 and Dead Space did not make number 20 😂 . 2edgy4me.
