Let me save you a click:
All in caps because I can’t be bothered to rewrite them correctly after copy pasting the titles from the website
Thanks!
Also, that list is terrible. Where the fuck is Elden Ring, Polygon!? No LoZ, any of them? XCOM: UFO Defense is the first and the absolute best of all XCOM entries....by far.
Outer Wilds, Hollow Knight, Subnautica? These aren't even old games...
And Satisfactory beat out Factorio? Lol, m'kay Polygon...sure.
The truth is they could of picked any PC exclusive games that example how great PC can be. Instead they pick Fortnite.. Baldurs Gate 3, StarSector, any game with endless mods, any art software games... Like lazy
LoZ?
Also gonna disagree with your XCOM comment, it's far too dated to make this kind of list, even if the core loop is solid. With workshop support XCOM2 pulls ahead.
XCOM: Original allows for insane strategy. It's dated, I don't disagree, but it had so much more strategy and immersion than atleasr the first modern XCOM. You could build your own bases, you got raided, you had to find enemy bases and maintain funding throughout world map. The game was legendary.
One of the most fun being, use flight armor and 2x alien grenade launchers. Breach top most point on battleship to expose command center, and then nuke the ship commander and body guards with second launcher. Swoop in with forces. Win.
Ignore the LoZ. I forgot it was PC games only. Whoops lol
I played several LoZ games on PC. 🤷🏻♂️
ROM's are the best.
It is from their own list of games.
