@@scotch1993 Maybe I didn't explain it correctly. I'm pointing out that he isn't as knowledgeable as he's letting on. He's just name dropping other games he saw on the list and it's not impressive. He got several things incorrect to a Sarkeesian level with several of his comments on the games. He specifically praises the story of Greek mythology focused GoW games, then immediately says he thinks Kratos is Ares. He mispronounces Ico. He complains of Zelda's animation, a series that continually changes its art style. He says the second Prince of Persia is the "time travel" one when it's really about the 4th or 5th one. These are just the games I'm familiar with. A minor mistake, like the mispronunciation is excusable; but several that get things this wrong to this level, especially from at his age who's claiming to have played games his whole life wouldn't be this inaccurate. It's clear he just looked up a list and parroted opinions he saw in either in the article or the comments related to it just to get clicks out of the annual summer game hype.

@@TheandY408 Those are not minor mistakes. Not all Zelda games are cartoonish, though. And that argument falls apart when you take the 2D games into consideration as they're no more cartoonish than the Mario games he praised. It shows he's clueless about one of the most popular franchises in the last 40 years. It's like saying you're a movie buff but you don't like any of the Star Wars movies because JarJar Binks is an annoying, badly animated cartoon character, and then praising Minions. Also, thinking that Kratos is Ares is not a minor mistake when you're specifically praising the story. The entire story of Kratos is that he wants revenge on the Gods, especially Ares, who betrayed him. His entire motivation is fueled by his hatred for Ares. Again, in Star Wars terms, one may as well say they love the first trilogy for it's amazing story but also think Luke Skywalker is Darth Vader when he takes off his helmet.

Sorry to see that Andrew did not comment on the Metal Gear Solid franchise, maybe because he has not played the games yet. But they’re very cinematic and extremely-detailed military thriller sneaking-games. The world is not fully realistic (there are advanced robots and supernatural things like ghosts) but the story constantly refers to things from the real world (politics, history, science) and features a lot of very clever social commentary. Most characters have realistic backstories and most things in the game have a valid reason for existing like you would not find in basically any other game. It is more sophisticated than most novels. In my opinion it is the greatest work of fiction ever created.

Everyone saying Kratos is a bad guy even in the newer iterations of the game is missing the point. His journey to redemption, of his actions to put aside his past in order to raise Atreus to be better than himself is the main story. Because we it goes to show that you can do the things Kratos did and still have hope that your children will do better where you failed. And that is further solidified where you can see Atreus keeping his father's lessons close to his heart- above all to "be better".

I know what Klavan means about GTA. I wish it wasn’t so cynical and negative all the time. But I love the variety of activities you can do in a vast open world game. And in GTA V, I liked how they added activities in throughout the game so you wouldn’t complete all of them in the first half leaving nothing but the main storyline after that. Lastly I liked the things you had to do to prepare for heists, like scouting the area, choosing a strategy, choosing crew members, planting a getaway car in a nearby location, and getting needed materials or vehicles. As for The Last of Us, I wonder if Klavan was a player who rushed through it without hearing most of the conversations that characters had or reading notes that added depth to characters and the environment. Someone who plays like that can’t appreciate the nuances of the plot because they simply never hear most of it. I thought it was beautiful how Joel began by resenting Ellie and treating her with impatience, but by the end he cared about her so much that he was willing to risk the extinction of the human race rather than have her die.

Stop overthinking it internet. Tetris, Goldeneye, and GTA 3 (maybe San Andreas!!!) I want to put Street Fighter 2 in there but the fighting game genre is only a little less niche than those damn Madden players.

the last of us? Cmon bro, that game is tedious, bad mechanics, its emasculating, that little wo3 would be slapped hard till she understood how to speak to a man who could be her father, properly. I mean, theres too much cr4p. RE4 on the other hand is a masterpiece.

I know it’s still less than a year old, but it did just win 2023 game of the year… it’s Baldur’s Gate 3. Some people think it is the best game of the decade. I love it.

I used to consider World of Warcraft as the greatest game of all time at some point. It was the only game that actually got me addicted. But that was a long time ago, I played it during the Wrath, Cataclysm and Pandaria expansions. WoW definitely was one of the greatest too, but only until certain expansions. It changed too much over the decades.

Man, when Klavan talks games, I both clap with applause and cringe in disgust. On one hand, he gives shoutouts to games like Ico. On the other hand, he hates Zelda. And did he get confused between OOT and BotW? Also, he hates playing as bad guys and likes old Kratos?? Uh, what?

I’m fine with his opinions. Even if I don’t agree it’s refreshing just seeing a guy not bothered to like something just because it’s generally considered great

Ratchet & Clank 2: Going Commando Still to this day one of the funniest games I ever played. Outstanding gameplay, outstanding creativity. Almost a perfect game. Up there in S+ tier along with God of War

Firstly, worlds worst job at bleeping out vulgarity. Secondly, OoT is great, but it's overrated; rating it B on a scale of SABC is probably underrating it, but if it were a scale of SABCDF, B is obviously the right answer.

Gears of War is the only game series from Xbox that I like. For me its Super Mario 3 vs Super Mario World as the best Mario game. I love Zelda overall Ya, gaming had a "Golden Age" when Switch was released, but recent Triple A releases aren't WOWing me. It isn't like before where each generation of consoles and games offered something groundbreaking. IMO there is no difference between PS3 and PS5 except the loading times

Klavan’s analysis is quite good as long as you don’t include the RPG genre. Even though he’s a novelist, he really doesn’t like or appreciate the RPG genre (his opinion is it’s too story driven, has too many cut scenes, and isn’t action oriented).

Gotta be honest, Resident Evil 7 and Resident Evil Village are better than RE4 in my opinion. (Story felt more compelling, especially in Village). Love most of the series, but 7 and Village were something else because of the genuine emotional motivation and drive for Ethan in the game. (Also, criminal that Minecraft isn’t on here for what it has done to culture and open world games).

Only Jesus saves from hell. All have sinned (Romans 3:23 KJV). The Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins, was buried and rose again the third day (1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV). Jesus shed His blood for our sins (Ephesians 1:7 KJV). Getting water baptized DOESN'T save us (1 Corinthians 1:17 KJV). We are saved by grace through faith, not our works (Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV).

So many good ones missed. Portal was a great puzzle game. No one ever talks about the really old ones though... like Zork and Plantfall...probably because no one is that old. Well, except Andrew, he should remember them.

People loved Goldeneye not so much for the story mode but because of the multiplayer mode. It was almost endless fun for my brothers and me as kids, more so for my brothers who were older and better. Almost endless because then Super Smash Brothers came out and that was THE game until we grew up.

I would probably add Elden Ring and / or the first Dark Souls to this list. For a lot of years, I never understood the appeal of these kinds of games. Then I picked up Elden Ring, which let me to the original Souls trilogy. And it well and truly enthralled me.

Devil May Cry 3 is one of the few, if not the only game I finished, in all its difficulties. I never got bored of it. I highly recommend the Onimusha games if you are a fan of DMC and Resident Evil and like Japanese mythology and samurai combat.

How could Skyrim not be on this list.. if you can put in hundreds, or even thousands of hours on a game and not fully complete it then it belongs among the tippy toppiest of tiers.
