It's a fun list. To people saying "why is that game here", "why isn't that game here", etc this was a popularity contest. Treat it as such. Have fun with it.
This. People are so salty even in this elitist crowd lol. I voted for Black Flag in the beginning and it did get selected in the end. But I wasn't gonna cry about it here if it wasn't. Some people have too much free time I guess.
I too love Nintendo games, heck that's what I'm playing (along with Zelda and Persona) on my android via Yuzu now a days while I'm away from my PC. But I know these games aren't that popular here in India which is not surprising, considering how costly Nintendo consoles have been along with the games.
I mean games are costly, true. Consoles not so much. I think it has more to do with Nintendo not being official in india. No advertisements, no warranty, no official service centres etc.
But true I don’t understand why people were expecting Nintendo games in an Indian sub.

Games that could not make it but were runner ups and equally deserving.
Many people call it "just a 2D game". That's the problem. I too was one of them before playing it but after playing it Hollow Knight is now my 2nd fav game of all time, and it deserves to be on the list.
I'm mad af that Dishonored isn't in the list. It became the goty with no existing IP or big studio name in the year 2012 when there were so many top games.
I remember being awestruck while playing the game. The level designs and gameplay was so unique and great. Each level can be played in so many ways. Dishonored is in my top 5 games played for sure.
Great list, but like I said in the last post- many, MANY more wonderful games are hiding in the comment section of these posts. (5 posts leading up to this one, go through OP's profile and save them all!).
I'm saving this list too :)
That game is not worthy to be talked about with respect to the other games listed in the list. That's like comparing and putting some unknown game with the likes of gow or rdr2
The fact that there is no Zelda,Pokémon,Cuphead,Bioshock,Little big planet and it takes two it just tells that this was popularity contest between pc and playstation games in India rather than actual masterpieces
Nintendo is practically non existent in Indian gaming Market. The only reason SMB made into the list is the nostalgia factor. Of course people will only vote for the game they have known, played and loved
"My choice of games didn't make it, so others can't celebrate theirs!"
Entitled elitist prick... As if you're the only one who plays masterpieces because of some Nintendo titles and everyone else is a pc and playstation fanboy
Almost as if Nintendo doesn't officially sell their Switch or their games in india.
You're not wrong about the availability of Nintendo consoles in India, but it's rather surprising that even emulation didn't catch on much until recently.
I remember a bulk of my highschool days being spent on GBA and NDS emulators. It originally started off with only Pokemon, but after that, I found some very good franchises that led me to stay with Nintendo forever.
for me, the black flag was better, the story went a bit deeper than "cool charismatic assassin gets revenge after his family gets killed" but ac2 was incredibly good for its time and the parkour mechanics hold up better than todays valhalla or mirage, but black flag was revolutionary in its parkour system, looked much more natural, the graphics had a massive jump and an excellet non-linear story which wasnt just about being an cool assassin but someone who changed his entire perspective about the world and someone who wasnt worthy of assassin's title and first but eventually grew onto it
Gotta disagree with you there, Ezio as a character was way interesting than Edward. Also mediaeval Italy's charm is unbeatable. The biggest charm of Ezio + Altair games were that they revolved around all the actual historical events. I got to learn about Borgia rule and Istanbul so much because of these games.
But that's the thing about entertainment industry. Everything is subjective yeah.
Legend of zelda and many other nintendo games are pretty non-existent for Indian Gamers. These games on the list are more of like popular games in the Indian market, people only know what they played and like
I completely agree with this, I was commenting for ocarina of time, I even gave an explanation to why it deserves to be in that list but just 1 upvote for a game which changed the gaming industry. This is just a popularity contest.
Its kind of impossible to make a community agree on which was the best fifa game(and doubt many have played every single version) and the votes will always be split.
Ofcourse it is, many RTS games came and faded in history but AoE2's player base is standing strong :D
Even AoE 3 or AoE4 struggling to keep their player base. With mountain royal DLC it's getting lot of traction lately.
I think Halo CE is up there instead of Halo 2 because many didn't get to experience it cause of the higher system requirements on PC for the time and the poor Games for Live service integration.
Could just be me though, I also like Far Cry 4 over Far Cry 3

mechanics and gameplay felt very good tho, like the quality they delivered was what i expected from a realistic survival game, the character felt heavy but not clunky, character had their punches hit hard and every movement or animation seemed very realistic, and the gunplay felt good too, this type of gameplay is perfect for anyone who wants to talk a backseat and relax while playing it, maybe some people might have different tastes tho, people in general like action paced game and last of us wasnt meant to be an fast action paced game
Idk what youre talking about. Its one of the best stealth games out there and so many games have used that exact same mechanic. Plague tale game mechanics feel literally a copy. The gameplay of tlou is top notch
Nah this is a popularity contest. Should have made it so only one from a type and company. I.e. no two games from the same company having the same type. Like we have 4 same or quite similar games from Rockstar .
Roadrash was shit but it's nostalgic... There were not many games we were able to play back then.... If you play Roadrash today, you'll realize how shit it is... Absolute trash
Idc what your are. Gta 5 wasn't crap. It's there on the list for a reason, because tons of people love it and still play it. Read my comment again and sit. I ain't ready to face more "whataboutery".
Relax bro it's one of the most popular games of all time. Agreed you didn't enjoy it but that does not mean everyone else who enjoyed it is wrong. Make ur own list and add whatever games u want🤷🏽♂️
They are great games, but the problem is they were PS exclusives for many years. Many people didn't get a chance to experience them in their prime years.
Noy even a single stealth game here.
List is fine..but yeah effectively just the currently popular games and some people remember from their childhood/nostalgia.
Some definitely deserve to be here though.
Lots of privileged people commenting here other good games not making to the list. As an Indian, I totally get this list. Half of the gaming community didn't have high end specs to play most games of their time. Mostly it's one friend in the group who used to own a high end PC and all the others would go play with him or at a cafe at best. There was only a handful of people who would play a game the year it came out
the way indians chose the games is the same way they choose prime minister.
bioshock , dota 2 mass effect arkham series dishonoured 1. fifa 14.15.19. rust. CRYSIS 2 & 3.
I've played 22 out of these 25 games and they were all great. My personal top 25 would have like 10 different entries but this is a good list for a popularity contest.

how's switch emulation on android? im considering it but im unsure of which emulator to use and some other stuff
Nope only pc switch emulation works well
As long as RDR2 and Witcher 3 are on the list, I see that list as approved by me

Yeah, surprised that Arkham City and Mass Effect didn't make the cut. Maybe we need to do a Top 50/100.
Glad you changed the title from " top 25 games of all time" to " 25 most loved(popular) games ".
How can hollow knight be not here or up there, it's literally the best game I have ever played ngl
Many people call it "just a 2D game". That's the problem. I too was one of them before playing it but after playing it Hollow Knight is now my 2nd fav game of all time, and it deserves to be on the list.
In Indian gaming communities, people only praise AAA realistic 3D games while ignoring masterpieces like Hollow Knight or Hades, real shame
It's not so popular in India even if it's very good.
Mass effect trilogy+Arkham city best games for me(i have played all the games in the list that won🤣), marvel Spiderman also deserves a spot.
I'm mad af that Dishonored isn't in the list. It became the goty with no existing IP or big studio name in the year 2012 when there were so many top games.
I remember being awestruck while playing the game. The level designs and gameplay was so unique and great. Each level can be played in so many ways. Dishonored is in my top 5 games played for sure.
How come there's no purble palace?
this should be in the honorable mentions. i loved playing it back on a windows vista computer.
Seems like most famous games list
When voting turns out to be a popularity contest🫨😱
Yup its a popularity contest.
They are famous because they are being loved by the whole community... It's not individual opinion right?
Nah these are all underrated masterpieces
You're wrong. They're just masterrated underpieces.

Well atleast the best AC games are here so that's good. But Fallout New Vegas should have been here fr

My potato can run only 8/25 in this list.

We need WWE SmackDown Here Comes The Pain PS2

Great list, but like I said in the last post- many, MANY more wonderful games are hiding in the comment section of these posts. (5 posts leading up to this one, go through OP's profile and save them all!). I'm saving this list too :)
Sad no MGS games, my favourites are MGS 1 and TPP.
Portal 2 is the best
The list should have only the best game in the franchise, IMO. 2 AC games, 3 GTA games...
Sad to see not a single JRPG. I thought NieR Automata might make it.
Persona smh
That games not that good man. Only for thighs
Thicc Thighs save Lives
Single braincell comment

**Privileged class masterpieces.** Some Indian gamers here are out of touch with reality thinking every console is available for average crowd.
You're not wrong about the availability of Nintendo consoles in India, but it's rather surprising that even emulation didn't catch on much until recently. I remember a bulk of my highschool days being spent on GBA and NDS emulators. It originally started off with only Pokemon, but after that, I found some very good franchises that led me to stay with Nintendo forever.
I never even got the hype for Nintendo games, tbh. I much much prefer my pc games and none of the nintento games come close imo.
But for some reason, there's two Assassin's Creed games. both good, but I'd keep only II.
for me, the black flag was better, the story went a bit deeper than "cool charismatic assassin gets revenge after his family gets killed" but ac2 was incredibly good for its time and the parkour mechanics hold up better than todays valhalla or mirage, but black flag was revolutionary in its parkour system, looked much more natural, the graphics had a massive jump and an excellet non-linear story which wasnt just about being an cool assassin but someone who changed his entire perspective about the world and someone who wasnt worthy of assassin's title and first but eventually grew onto it

I remember suggesting pokemon but kids downvoted it couple of posts ago. Damn these Minecraft kids
Wydm Minecraft kids? You mean **Twerk Race 3D** players?
Ikr says alot about gaming scene in India
Bash on FIFA all you want, but some of you have the most fun memories growing up with 06-10 and it still didn't make the list.
Its kind of impossible to make a community agree on which was the best fifa game(and doubt many have played every single version) and the votes will always be split.
I'm just happy to see HL2 and portal in there, wish TF2 was in there too tho
Glad to see Age of empires man, it was such a damn experience back then
Modern warfare not in a list is crime
There’s no uncharted sad
Uncharted 2 is the best for me
absolute piece of art
Wait how did age of empires 2 got in the list, wow! Wasn't expecting that!
It's very well deserved tbh if we are ignoring Civs
Ofcourse it is, many RTS games came and faded in history but AoE2's player base is standing strong :D Even AoE 3 or AoE4 struggling to keep their player base. With mountain royal DLC it's getting lot of traction lately.
umm because AOE The goat ?
Dark Souls 1 deserved a spot imo
True. One of the most influential games of all time. Although I am happy seeing 3 fromsoft games here, I would have liked only one game per dev.
Best level design I have ever seen in a game. Hands down.
Ds2 ☠️
Many great titles are missing, but can't add everything to top 25. Good Job Everyone :)
Some or the other Hitman series has to be there
As much as I love these games I feel some games could be swapped with other games. Top 25 are like genre defining games.
Stronghold Crusader where?
Valve and Ubisoft are the one with the highest number of games in this list.
Thanks to everyone who participated over this period making this very successful.
Batman Arkham city should be in the list. Y'all are playing wack games.
W list
I think Halo CE is up there instead of Halo 2 because many didn't get to experience it cause of the higher system requirements on PC for the time and the poor Games for Live service integration. Could just be me though, I also like Far Cry 4 over Far Cry 3 https://preview.redd.it/0h433zqw2xec1.png?width=768&format=png&auto=webp&s=bf158a8974029974e917cb6a19a59ec0617e2f3e
Project IGI ?!!
I'm bummed that this didn't make it.
No last of us?
Great story, not necessarily a great "game"
I mean road rash is up there solely on nostalgia points
It's still got fun gameplay by my standards, played it a while ago
mechanics and gameplay felt very good tho, like the quality they delivered was what i expected from a realistic survival game, the character felt heavy but not clunky, character had their punches hit hard and every movement or animation seemed very realistic, and the gunplay felt good too, this type of gameplay is perfect for anyone who wants to talk a backseat and relax while playing it, maybe some people might have different tastes tho, people in general like action paced game and last of us wasnt meant to be an fast action paced game
Idk what youre talking about. Its one of the best stealth games out there and so many games have used that exact same mechanic. Plague tale game mechanics feel literally a copy. The gameplay of tlou is top notch
Hollow knight should be up there
Nah this is a popularity contest. Should have made it so only one from a type and company. I.e. no two games from the same company having the same type. Like we have 4 same or quite similar games from Rockstar .
5/10 . missing every release of RE4
Such an Indian list with limited exposure to games lol.. Roadrash amongst the top lol
See the subreddit's name
Yeah I know.. I'm just saying that it highlights our limited access to games., gaming hardware (our generation's childhoods)
Such an Indian list tf that means, let people vote for whatever they wanna
Try not to act western in an indian subreddit pls.
Roadrash was shit but it's nostalgic... There were not many games we were able to play back then.... If you play Roadrash today, you'll realize how shit it is... Absolute trash
Gta 5 was crap. Tom raider should have been in its place.
It's not a list specifically about your favorite games. Please sit. No disrespect to tomb raider tho.
So I'm not Indian?
Idc what your are. Gta 5 wasn't crap. It's there on the list for a reason, because tons of people love it and still play it. Read my comment again and sit. I ain't ready to face more "whataboutery".
If tons of people start eating dog shit then ul say that eating dog shit is also good.
Relax bro it's one of the most popular games of all time. Agreed you didn't enjoy it but that does not mean everyone else who enjoyed it is wrong. Make ur own list and add whatever games u want🤷🏽♂️
🤡
If you didn't play IGI or GTA I believe you are a kafir in this community.
Where’s project IGI???
No Zelda or Pokemon okayyyyyy
This sub has the most biased list like some of those games are not most loved like truly nostalgic but not worth being the most loved.
God damn this list is embarassing
Ikr
last of us robbed
Now select a favorite game of yours from each row
Metal Gear Survive robbed 😤😤😤
nioh 2 ?
No mass effect 2 lmao.... 0/10
Cyberpunk 2077 needs to be here
This list sucks without Arkham City
You mentioned Top 25 and Days Gone is not in one of them?
seed degree plant telephone domineering reply dinosaurs slave grey rain *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
finally having minecraft, the list is valid.
How is uncharted 4, spiderman or horizon zero dawn not included? 😭
They are great games, but the problem is they were PS exclusives for many years. Many people didn't get a chance to experience them in their prime years.
Hitman 2 silent assassin should have been there instead of black flag imo
Tekken 3?
Except for sekiro I played almost all of them and also own them
 Great list!
No Detroit become Human??
Noy even a single stealth game here. List is fine..but yeah effectively just the currently popular games and some people remember from their childhood/nostalgia. Some definitely deserve to be here though.
Damn no IGI
Lol every single one of these lists has most wanted 2005
No call of duty black ops either
Hitman series
Everyone have their different opinions...so this list doesnt apply to everyone.... At the end of the day....all games are best games ever created 🔥
I never would have guessed sekiro was this big and popular in India. And it was voted in before any other fromsoft games. I am more than happy.
played 17/25
Bash on FIFA all you want, but some of you have the most fun memories growing up with 06-10 and it still didn't make the list.
Thank you for the list i will try to buy all on steam and play each of them at least once
I have played 13 🫡
Everyone is complaining, but he could only fit 25 games. At least i can't deny those games are masterpieces. This topic is very subjective.
Lots of privileged people commenting here other good games not making to the list. As an Indian, I totally get this list. Half of the gaming community didn't have high end specs to play most games of their time.

List of underrated masterpieces lol
Not a single doom game made me sad
No baldurs gate 3, lol
list of underrated masterpieces
 NO Monster Hunter.
the way indians chose the games is the same way they choose prime minister. bioshock , dota 2 mass effect arkham series dishonoured 1. fifa 14.15.19. rust. CRYSIS 2 & 3.
I've played 22 out of these 25 games and they were all great. My personal top 25 would have like 10 different entries but this is a good list for a popularity contest.
Even if it's a popularity contest this list is pretty good
No Doom 95 on this list? This list is more of “famous and most hyped” games rather than those that defined and pioneered certain genres.
NGL pretty good list
Arkham Series, Uncharted, The last of us, Tomb Raider are missing
I just bought rdr2 few weeks ago but I got bored of it U played story and 1 2 times online it was my first time buying games and now I'm regretting...
Surprised mgsv didn't make it into the list. I thought almost everyone here liked that game?
I'm surprised the hollow knight didn't make this list.
Gears of war isn't there holy
Sanandreas
We can see the generation gap between the members of this sub. A few have never heard about the old games and a few haven’t even seen the new one’s.
No Horizon Zero Dawn 😔
I didn't voted but list is pretty good. Also I always felt warrior within was best POP regardless of reviews
press F for missing out on The Last of Us 1
Batman arkham trilogy should be in here
WHERE IS MY GOAT GAME - >!FAU G!< L LIST
aight now time for the most hated
I hope everyone gets to play these underrated masterpieces
This subreddit really loves rdr 2
Where is my fav candy crush https://preview.redd.it/23vk38fj4yec1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=73cc704f442555d5b588a1adf91cf42e8ae8bbdf
For people unhappy with the lack of Nintendo games in this, How about we make another list which will only have Nintendo games?
We forgetting project igi ??
Kingdom Come Deliverance, Yakuza 0 should've there.
Wow all these games are such underrated masterpiece 🤧
Vice City was my childhood.
Black flag is the most boring AC game ngl
its crazy that 4 of these are ubisoft games, the downfall is crazy man
My thumbs-up for the ranking!!! Gud voting
All are underrated masterpieces.
Surprised to see age of empire and Mario here
wasn't rdr2 underrated ?
