No Disco Elysium?

I know it flopped but Titan Fall 2 is more worthy than others in that list. Also it is missing really old and influential games from the Atari 2600, 16 bit, and early PC era.

In all, it is a list put together by somebody young, that really loves Nintendo, l and with limited video game history knowledge, IMHO.

This list was AI generated with recency bias. You’re not going to get that on there. I fed this into GPT 4o and It was almost identical

I didn’t care for Disco Elysium, and my friends list is full of people who got a few hours into it like I did and then put it down. I can’t say why they did, but maybe while it really landed for some people, it didn’t for plenty of others. In a top 50 of all time, I’m not certain Titanfall 2 would make it for me either, as much as I did enjoy that game.

Half the games on this list are from the 90’s and were on Playstation??

They even correctly clocked that Ms. Pac-Man is actually a better game than Pac-Man.

Hell, there are only three Nintendo games in the to 10, as a reminder Tetris isn’t actually a strictly Nintendo property despite being #2 in the list.

There’s six fucking games in the top 10 that were all available on various generations of Playstations.
