What is the episode about and who are the hosts introducing the topic?
Hello, fellow gamers, and welcome to the Video Gamers Podcast. What are some of the most anticipated games in the world right now? Well, sure, GTA 6 is. But what about everything else? Are you missing out on a potential all-timer? Well, on today's episode, we're breaking down the top 10 most wish-listed games on Steam. These are the games that make publishers drool and gamers excited, and we're about to break it all down. But before we get to that, some introductions are in order. I am your host, Josh, and joining me, we had to tell him this isn't a GTA 6 episode, and he had to give these other games some time, and he didn't like it at all. It's Ryan.
All right, so GTA 6, guys, coming up, it's going to... No, I'm kidding.
I had to throw this in there just so Ryan doesn't keep going like, well, GTA 6, that's the wish list.
I'm surprised that it's not. Everybody that would have wish listed it just already bought it. That's why they made a bajillion dollars already.
It's on Steam. It's not even on Steam. You can't wish list it because they're stupid and didn't want to do a simultaneous release. That's true. Freaking idiots. Yeah. And joining us, he was very pleased to find out there's a couple indie games on this list. And honestly, it's great to see smaller indie studios competing with the juggernauts.
It's Ace. I mean, not too long ago, there was an indie on this list that probably took the top spot, and that was Silksong. Silksong? Yeah.
Yep. Yep. Well, moving on. Moving on. All right.
Let's go.
Ryan, she's behind you.
Yeah. This is a fun. I'm actually this is a cool episode, man. We kind of had this idea because, you know, it's summer. We've got the fall rolling around with the plethora of games coming for the rest of this year. And it kind of got us thinking, like, what are the games that everybody out there is looking forward to? And then you can actually check the Steam wish list because it's through the Steam database. You can see what the most wish listed games are and they ranks all of them. Now, the one thing that we don't get is the actual number of wish lists. Steam doesn't give us that information. So this is just in order of the games that are wish listed. And we're just going to trust that Steam knows how to order things.
numerical format there. But yeah, I mean, if these are any of these games you are not familiar with, this is kind of why we're doing this episode. This is also to remind you what's out there. A lot of these games, honestly, don't even have release dates yet. You know, but hey, they showed off enough to get people excited. So if we know the release date or at least a year, we'll let you know on those as well. But these are the games that you should absolutely at least know about. All right. And that's kind of why we're doing this episode so that as they get closer to release, you will be in the know. How do you boys want to do this? You want to start at number 10 and work our way up to number one spot.
Let's do that. OK, I like that. All right, Ace, why don't you tell the people what, because this is kind of your genre, let's be honest. And so I'm going to let you start off with number 10. And what is it? At number 10, we have Ill.
Very famous game on this podcast.
The game doesn't exist. The game doesn't exist.
It's not real.
It's not a real game.
It's not a real game at all. Yeah. Someone here may have drafted said game for their list. And it ain't coming out this year. We did get a confirmation that it was coming out next year. But it was the game that nobody believed exists because it looked just too real, too weird.
Too good. Yeah, it looked too good.
Too good to be true. Yep. And I'm kind of shocked to see it at number 10. I did not expect to see Ill on this list.
Dude, when you make a game that looks like this game does, and then you prove that it actually is a real game, it is going to garner attention. Just plain and simple. I was doing a little bit of research on the top wishlisted games and how that kind of works. I was trying to get numbers for people to kind of see if we could actually say the number of wishlists.
