Finally got back home after 9 days away. I filled in the last five games on my list and thought I'd share some statistics from my list for anyone interested.
First, here are the games that fell out from the list this year:
- Super Mario 64 (Currently #54)
- Tales of Symphonia (Currently #53)
- Mega Man 2 (Currently #52)
And here are the new games on my list:
- Yakuza 0 (at #29)
- Hollow Knight (at #28)
- Horizon Zero Dawn (at #19)
Platform Breakdown (By number of games):
- NES: 2 Games (Highest ranked game was Super Mario Bros. 3 at #24)
- SNES: 4 Games (Final Fantasy VI at #17)
- WiiU: 1 Game (Super Smash Bros. for WiiU at #33)
- PS1: 5 Games (Final Fantasy IX at #1, The Legend of Dragoon at #2)
- PS2: 9 Games (Shadow of the Colossus at #6)
- PS3: 17 Games (Dark Souls at #4)
- PS4: 5 Games (Dark Souls III at #8)
- PC: 9 Games (Freespace 2 at #3)
Decade Breakdown (going by the games' EU release date):
- 1990s: 11 Games
- 2000s: 17 Games
- 2010s: 24 Games
Most Represented Franchises:
- Final Fantasy: 5 Games
- The Legend of Heroes: 4 Games
- Dark Souls: 3 Games (4 if you count Bloodborne as part of the series)
- Command & Conquer: 2 Games
- Uncharted: 2 Games
Other Random Stats:
- Biggest Winner: Bloodborne and Final Fantasy VIII (Up 2 Spots from last year)
- Biggest Loser: Command & Conquer (Down 9 Spots)
- My top 3 has remained the same since 2001
- The oldest game in my top 50 is Super Mario Bros.3 (1991)
- The newest game is Horizon Zero Dawn (2017)
And that's about all I can think of right now. Really enjoyed doing this once again, and I'm already looking forward to seeing how the top 50 changes over the next year. There's already one potential game that might make it in next year.
