Welcome to the Eurogamer 100, a list of video games that aims to reflect their ever-changing nature. Rather than ranking games by their influence or significance, the below list is a suggestion of the very best things you can play at this moment, according to us.
It's a pretty good list, I think, although there are a few "wtf" moments here and there as I see what's included and what's omitted.

Some really weird picks here. A few standout bad takes:
I'd say Mario Kart 8 deserves recognition, but agree with the other ones.
I have no knowledge about diablo 4, but I think the others are really fun games in their genre?
I think there is a stark distinction between "really fun" and "one of the best games ever". This list contains almost nothing which pushed against the barriers of gaming either now or in the past.
I thought the story in ac Odyssey was very unique with how it prioritized the morality of the time and contrasted it with our modern day morality, and I spent plenty of hours really enjoying that world. Probably my favorite large open world to date (but that is entirely personal preference). I do think Mario kart 8 is the best kart racer ever, and definitely deserves to be on the list for that alone.
There are no bad takes, they're personal preference. Not everyone likes the same game or genre.
I know people who play Football Manager and Diablo religiously. While I enjoyed Odyssey for a while. Also tons of people still play Mario Kart 8, it's a fun game for the right audience (not me).
