Last one I just loved the story too much.

Wait I forgot Celeste. That may crack my Top 5 after some thought.

Yeah, what bullshit is that?

I feel like they should have called it the "Top 100 Games of the Decade" rather than the "Best".

These lists always "force" me to buy more games.

It's also way too early to put a game like Death Stranding on this list.

I initially thought I wouldn't have played enough games to make a list, but I've probably played like 15 games on Polygon's list, so I can probably put something together.


The list sort of reads like a hipster's top 100. I have some pretty major issues with their sequencing too, but it hits on most of the decade's best releases.

thats kinda how I felt reading through it too. Like I felt weird that I hadn’t heard of half the stuff in the top 10, and Skyrim at #50 feels like a bit of a dig, but overall it seems to hit most of the big ones I’d expect.

I’ll try to do up a personal list at some point.

Yeah I probably finished about 15

The Last of Us in the lower 50 feels like a slight. I was gonna gripe about no Uncharted but the first game of that series was 2007, but then again they included Portal 2 even though that wasn’t a huge leap beyond the first one.

Borderlands also feels like a glaring omission. With the unique art style and basically kickstarting the whole looter shooter craze it should have made the list IMO.

The Last of Us should definitely be in the Top Ten.

Thanks for remembering Deus Ex Human Revolution, that was probably my favorite game I had on Xbox 360 besides GTA V and Skyrim.
