That said, I learned last gen that lists are contextually barren. Lists equalize everything when we gamers view them very differently.
Example: Geometry Wars 2 and Last of Us. Both 90+ meta scores. On a list they would be placed in the same 90+ category. However most would pick the AAA retail exclusive.
I learned from last gen that indies are not on the same level as the retail games, nor are they system sellers. They are nice to have once the system is all ready bought but are not in themselves worth the purchase. Its in the end its up to the AAA exclusives, just like they always were.
Lists should separate indies from AAA, into 2 separate lists. It paints a better picture.
Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.
