What is the premise of the hosts' Top‑10 all‑time video game countdown?
Hello, fellow gamers, and welcome to the Video Gamers Podcast. What makes a video game an all-timer? What qualifies one to be in your top 10 games of all time? Is it peak gameplay, fantastic characters, or an unforgettable story? What if it's all three? On today's episode, we're breaking down the games that make up the bottom. Bottom half of our top 10 games of all time. We'll be basking in gaming glory in just a minute. But first, some introductions are in order. I am your host Josh, and joining me, well, he's not on this list. Because he's definitely in my top five as a host. It's Ryan.
Yeah, that's the old bait and switch there. You got me for a second, but I appreciate it. I appreciate it.
And joining us. I honestly didn't know what his list was until I looked on our website because his tastes are just that weird. It's ace. They're not that weird. These are some
mainstream games
on it. There's a freaking Nintendo game on it! If you look at Ryan and I's top ten list, it's like, okay, they have a lot of the same games that might be in slightly different order. And then there's Ace that has like five games that like I've never played. I've rarely heard of. Like, you know, it's just a different list, Ace. And that's, you know what? We like it. We like that. It makes
things better, you know? It's like we're all different, you know?
Yeah. Different. You know, every group needs the weird friends.
That's how you
feel. Every group needs the weird friend ace, and that's you. You're the weird friend.
Oh, it is not the one. Not the best Zelda. Which one of the best Zelda?
Don't even Uh really? Okay. Well, we're gonna get there, Ace. Uh Yeah, we are. Relatively soon. Oh man. So listen, people might be like, wait, why are you doing like 10 through six? Like, why are you doing the bottom half? Because we have learned that we like to talk too much. Two part, actually. And if we were to try to do the entire top 10 list for each of us, this episode would be way too long. So instead, we're gonna chop it into two parts, and we figured we'll cover the bottom half of this top 10 list. Now I know that there's gonna be listeners where It's like, yeah, I know your top 10. I've been to your website. You guys talk about these games all the time, you know, but We're gonna explain this isn't so much like the gameplay or like a deep dive into these games, so much as like what makes these games special to us, why they're at where they're at, like on our top ten list, why Ace has not the best Zelda on his list that I do kind of thing.
You are no and so Here's the other thing. If you've never played any of these games and they're modern, because I do listen, I do have an old game on my list, uh, because you know, at the time it was the greatest game ever made. It's because it's um Yeah, that's very true. That's very true, Ace. I can't even argue that anymore. Um, but yeah, so you know, these this is kind of a call out too to say, hey, if you haven't experienced some of these games, you should absolutely prioritize some of these as well. And again, these are not a consensus. We are not saying as the video gamers podcast that these are the 10 best games ever made. These are our personal. our personal top tens, which, you know, in all fairness do sometimes change up a little bit.
Like, you know, a little game came out last year that made it into my My top ten. Mine too. Uh that was a current game, you know, and it was like, okay. Uh and so they do change. Sometimes you go, you know, I really feel like I need to move this game into my top ten, which means the game's getting moved out and things like that as well. So nothing's written in stone. This is just where we're at right now. So Ace, as the one with the weirdest list, uh why don't you still
Great. The one with the weirdest. Why don't
you start us off, Ace? What's your what's number ten on your list?
Uh number ten for me is a game called Assassin's Creed Rogue. Which is What? Yeah.
Rogue? What the heck is this? And this is in your top ten, Ace?
Yes, it is. I absolutely not Assassin's Creed one game.
