Metaphor ReFantazio should have gotten a 10 from IGN. The reviewer was incredibly pleased with it AND it won your GOTY. I dont think 9 does it justice based on that.
Their GOTY specifically excluded DLCs and expansions and the only games they gave 10 this year were Shadow of the Erdtree and Stardew Valley. Metaphor wasn't competing against those for GOTY so the fact that they got a higher score doesn't matter. The reviewer felt like Metaphor was a 9 and went into detail as to why he felt that way. There should be no need to go back and "rectify" the score.
@@CrystronHalq Just trying to explain how you reasoning makes little sense since the justification you are pushing for Metaphor deserving a higher score is the fact that it got GOTY over higher scoring games despite IGN making it clear that those games were not in the conversation in the first place...
@@PhiLLyPhiLLzI didn’t much care for 4. I loved the engine. But my problem with these games (even though I love them) is everyone wants you to drop dead until you make the right response. The walking dead did this too. I’d love a new walking dead. But I’m not paying 60 bucks for life is strange. That would be ironic as hell.
Marvel Rivals The comment I was looking for. My biggest hours since the PS5 released have been on GoWR, Hogwarts Legacy, HFW, AC Rubicon, that Star Wars sequel to Jedi something something, and Cyberpunk 2077. I’m also not much of a gamer. I haven’t played the game since summer this year. For about a month when I finished GoWR and bought CP77. Prior to that I hadn’t played since Jan 2023. Prior to that? I last played during the pandemic. I don’t have ps plus so I can’t even go online. I’m thinking about buying ps plus this very moment since I’m out of school till spring semester. About a good month. To just relax and get back in the groove of playing games. Plus I finished my living room and have the whole Sony home theater setup. I wanna hear how crisp the games will sound. I’m on the final mission of CP77. I’m stuck on the fourth boss on Armored Core. I fucked around and saved right before that fight. Worse decision ever. Plus I haven’t played it in so long I might as well restart the entire game. And Hogwarts legacy I still have to beat. I’m on that book/story mission where I gotta beat hordes of monsters. But the game kept glitching every time I got close to beating it so I stopped playing back in 2023. I wanted to pick up that Baldurs Gate 3 game. That gta knockoff “The Precinct” and Wu Kon Black myth as well. What do y’all think?
Absurdism is a philosophical perspective that contends there is no inherent meaning or purpose in the universe. Humans' attempts to find or create meaning through logic and reason are futile.
they gave alien isolation a 5.9/10 because the reviewer didnt know to wear a headset while they play. astro bot (literally a fall guys rip off) won goty 2024. you dont need these people to tell me whats a good game or not
So it's known huh? Then please elaborate on which studio, developer, or publisher, paid how much for which of their games to receive a better review score? Did Fromsoft pay for that 10? And if IGN was paid for ratings, why only give out one score of 10 for the year? Since it's known please tell me since I've seen more convincing evidence about big foot, UFOs, and the loch Ness monster, than anyone has ever actually given when making that claim. Half of everyone in the comments "IGN only gives 7" Other 45% "IGN gets paid for better reviews" Last 5% "remember they gave X game, movie or show an X"
@@Chovieisin08 bruh Astro bot wasn’t paid to win goty. I wanted metaphor to win but I played Astro bot how tf can u call it a fall guys clone r u mentally ok
Look... no hate on those writing and voicing these videos, but I prefer the montages with background music; they are great also for sharing in social media. By the way, IGN should go back to them when revealing Game of the Year; look up 2012 GotY and see it for yourself.

Is there an alternative to IGN, like alternative game journalism channel? Because I can't take these guys seriously anymore. Learn from mainstream media and realize you lost the trust of your core audience. To me now an IGN 9 is a real world 6.
They’re gonna put Dragon Age Veilguard on this list aren’t they
@@henryduttweiler yes they did lol😂😂
Monkey fans are arriving at the battlefield🤣
7:14 for Sonic x Shadow generations
Your reviews are the most hilarious thing on the tube
Wow you guys really hated wukong eh
No, it got an 8/10 -- "Great" on our scale. So we liked it a lot.
@@IGN explain that bs article you guys released trying to slander the Wukong devs with piss poor mistranslations then.
Why wasn’t black myth wutong in this?

@@emiami458coping
I don´t belive you when you say Life is Strange is good
It’s alright not as good as the other ones, but if you don’t like that style of game of course you’re not going to like it.
It was decent, definitely not as good as the past ones
It's not good. It's great

Lots of indie bangers that fall outside of IGN's baby scope.
Nine Sols is peak
Name some bagers so I can get them for the Steam Deck 😃
@@chechen149 Nine Sols as the previous guy mentioned. DRG Survivor. And a personal favorite of mine was Crow Country.
@@d5rickOshay thanks.
Very interesting!
The video just came out on ab very interesting🙏😭
How many of these games listed were announced to come out last year? I can't wait for next years games 😁
I would watch a video of "best controversial ign reviews of the year".
The Helldiver's!!!!!
Had to come here because I know I did not see Starfield in that thumbnail preview for a video titled like this.
@@LukaMav15 Starfield is a 2023 game
Also a bad one
I bet 2025 will be filled with ten at 10 games
Satisfactory is so much fun, especially with friends
the best reviewed games of 2024 nice there 5% people agrees and other 95% don't agree with the list
Transformers & Godzilla 2025 game
IGN reviews a Life Is Strange game and gives it a good review. Said game also killed the company. Something smells wrong, dosen't it?
They got paid to give it good review. IGN isn't trustworthy.

Get AstroBot ASAP! It's so amazing and it's on sale rn (:
Prince of persia
Stellar blade
IGN will never learned their lessons
Joker IGN 😂😂😂
The fact that there's only 1 Switch game on this list
Except veilguard wasn't an awful game. It had some silly writing in it but it was a good game.
The lack of Until Then in all these videos is so sad
What's that game?
@jfbarabe6785 overwhelmingly positive reviewed indie game on steam that came out this year
@aretmaw oh thanks, it looks cool!
@jfbarabe6785 it's a really quite moving and amazing story, it made me cry multiple times. Really well written and very beautiful
Do Creativity what you like 😀
A 'literal deluge'....
Where is Asmonbald?
Sad to see Nine Sols not recieving the praise it deserves…its non existent in any top 10 list
10:34
I’m here!
bunch of whiny babies in the comments section as per usual 😂
What about Grayzone or staker 2? didn't they pay you to be included???
You immediately disqualified this whole list because of the awful Veilguard: the incompetence is palpable....

My Best games of 2024

Sonic x shadow generations
Actually no the best games were
Astrobot
Metaphor
Neva
Marvel rivals
Final fantasy 7 rebirth
I’m Nintendo fan but that’s your opinion
The 10 is a joke. Many other games on this list were not judged fairly
Im in love with Stellar Blade right now! I just go my ps5 literally a week nd a half ago! Sooo good!
Get AstroBot as well, Stellar Blade has a cameo in it (:
BALATRO? WTF
Skipped through the video, but did I really see no wukong. Thats crazy

Yo guys gave both path of exile 2 and Diablo a 8. HOW?! And dragon age…. It’s so terrible.. I guess game reviewing is subjective.
Astro bot…game of the year
Exposed Sony pays for their achievement awards:/
Or that the game journalists panel only cared for ez platformers and probably didn't even finish the harder/longer RPGs
AstroBot is literally better than every game you like or have ever played and that is just a fact .
Pretty weak year 2025 looks great so far.
Best reviews of IGN is pretty controversial when IGN is known for being paid to give games better scores 😂

well-made video, but the content is terrible. The takes are terrible. The opinions,in my opinion, are terrible.
Life is strange, and I am massive massive fan of the series was a huge disappointment.
Are you aware that your publication is now considered one of the least reliable sources for gaming news and reviews?
If you’re basing your decision whether to buy a game or not based on a single review, you’ve only got yourself to blame if it’s not to your liking.
By who? Who judges credibility?
