Half life alyx keys9/1/2023 Age Of Empires II: Definitive Edition Image credit: Xbox Game Studios Previous position: 49 (+2)ĭeveloper: Forgotten Empires, Tantalus Media, Wicked Witch, World's Edge Some of the crispest, sharpest shooting in modern FPSs, fluid switching between speedy wall-running manfights and weighty mech battles, even a creative and perfectly-paced singleplayer campaign, and all anybody could say about it was, “Oh yeah, there’s a new Battlefield coming out next week too.” History has been kinder to Titanfall 2 than those first few months were, but in a just world, it would have had classic status from the start. Titanfall 2 Image credit: EA Previous position: 32 (-16)įorty-eighth? I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised: Titanfall 2 never got the attention and, frankly, love that it deserved. To this day it's the game I became best at, and I still play it regularly, close to a decade later. And 1000 hours later, it's just as fun and chaotic, but from your new camping spot on the mountainous skill curve, you're just beginning to appreciate the true depth of this frenetic, near-perfect physics 'em up. It's ridiculously fun and chaotic even when you're just starting out and learning how to do basic flips and blocks and aerials. It's football with cars, so it's incredibly easy to understand as both a player and a spectator. Rocket League is still, in my opinion, the best competitive game ever made. Rocket League Image credit: Psyonix Previous position: 31 (-18) An incredible detective RPG, that will forever occupy your mind after finishing it. And it's all told through a wonderful vomit of verbiage. A grisly murder lies at the heart of it, but the world that spins around that axis is a tangled web of strange characters, shady politics, and a city on the edge of collapse. It’s an incredibly stylish and dialogue-heavy game that’s part detective murder mystery, part psychodrama. Where can I buy it? Steam, GOG, Epic Games Storeĭisco Elysium feels like a booze-soaked fever dream, and since finishing it I’ve never quite managed to shake off the thumping RPG hangover it gave me.

Of course, with this being such a personal list, there will naturally be some stone cold good 'uns that we've missed - so if you get to the end of this list and think it's an absolute travesty against the classical PC canon, why not have your own say in The RPS 100: Reader Edition? There's still time to get your votes in for that, too, but you'll need to be quick as voting will close at 5pm BST today. If games have shifted or dropped off the list entirely, that doesn't mean we love them any less. In any case, the list you see before you is the culmination of all those top 25 lists added together, representing our current tastes and personal Bestest Bests. As a result, some games have seen quite big jumps up and down this year, but we'll be sticking with this format going forward, so hopefully the rankings should be more stable in the future. In previous years, the team simply put forward their personal top tens, but this year, we each voted for our top 25 favourite games of all time, with our number one earning a full 25 points (and number two getting 24 points and so on).

It's simply the games that we as a team love the most, and hold closest in our hearts - a snapshot of who we are as a team right now, that will no doubt change and evolve as the years go on. As explained in Part One, this list isn't intended to be a definitive ranking of the best PC games of all time, or the most important or influential. I always love putting together big team lists like this. And I'll tell you now, it's not the same as last year. But now it's time for the big 50, going all the way to our collective number one. Earlier this week, we ranked our favourite games from 100-51, which can be found over in Part One of this year's list. Welcome to Part Two of The RPS 1, our annual countdown of our favourite PC games from across the ages.
