In my case, I could only post reliable lists if they are from 2023 or before, there are still games from 2024 that I haven't played and I couldn't vote for one of my favorites, Tennis Elbow 4, because I discovered it this year. My favorite game of 2023 was The Talos Principle 2 and for PSVR2, Resident Evil 4.
What I do see is that for at least a couple of years now, fewer and fewer original games that I like have been released.

Although at least it's a very well-known game, unlike 90-something percent of the Arcade Archives catalog, which are more unknown than a Bolivian surfer.
I played PC VR games like Half-Life: Alyx, The Talos Principle, Superhot, Mini Motor Racing X, Down the Rabbit Hole, Dirt Rally 2.0, Budget Cuts 2...
I played META games too like Asgard's Wrath and Lone Echo.
I played VR2 games like A Fisherman's Tale, Alien: Rogue Incursion, Arizona Sunshine, Before Your Eyes, C-Smash VRS, Crossfire: Sierra Squad, Demeo, Galaxy Kart, Gran Turismo 7, Horizon Call of the Mountain, Hubris, Humanity, Job Simulator, Kayak, Max Mustard, Metro Awakening, Moss 1 & 2, No Man's Sky, Pavlov, Pistol Whip, Propagation, Red Matter 1 & 2, Resident Evil, Skydance's Behemoth, Star Wars, Synapse, Synth Riders, Tetris Effect, The 7th Guest, The Dark Pictures: Switchback, The Last Clockwinder, The Midnight Walk, The Room: A Dark Matter, The Walking Dead 1 & 2, Tin Hearts, Vertigo 2, Walkabout Minigolf...
... and more, you only had to go into my info to see that I have rated VR games.
I don't like the direction the web is taking. Every AAA game that comes out is labeled a masterpiece. I still remember the release of Cyberpunk. It's impossible to distinguish the truly good games. Thank goodness they at least survey people asking about the best game of the year.
I'm just saying that the other day I reviewed the percentage of PS Plus games I own, and they're adding more and more crappy games to their catalog:
On PS4, 32.65% of my total games were purchased thanks to the basic PS Plus, which rises to 38.37% if I also include PS Extra and Premium.
On PS5, only 16.13% of my total games were purchased thanks to the basic PS Plus, which rises to 27.42% with PS Extra and Premium included. And I'm also telling you, I'm buying fewer and fewer games on the day they're released.
I won't even mention PSVR2: only 7.32% of my games are PS Extra or Premium, and the basic version is a complete zero.
Tell that to those who have lived for a long time in FARC territory, there are people who have only known war.
Not only do wars bring victims, thousands died or disappeared thanks to Pinochet.
And I can see from your information that you were one of the many who escaped Maduro. They're not at war there, but there are many people there who should be living in better conditions.
You mean you're safer now than you were when the war started? That you're safer in times of war than you were in peacetime, like before? I just hope you're not the next one to go to it.
I don't buy games from Israel too, wait, there aren't any.
I tell you that Franco killed people from my country, and you tell me that he was good for not attacking other countries. You make it clear to me that reasoning with you is like reasoning with a wall.
By the way, since you mention Gaza, it would also be good for you to learn about wars in other countries around the world that journalists don't cover. For example, there are quite a few in Africa like Congo with almost 7 million displaced, and no one cares about them.
And there are people from your country dying in the war, and everyone knows who started it.
And if you want to know, I never buy expensive products from certain countries. My car is french, my TV and cell phone are from South Korea, my laptop is from Taiwan, I have a PS5 and not a XBox... even i don't have Netflix, I prefer Filmin (spanish TV platform).
It is ridiculous to justify present-day barbarities based on things that happened in the past.
Even Franco didn't attack other countries, but there were people here who died because of him, and that was before I was born.
By the way, we can go back to the Middle Ages where everyone attacked everyone else. People are supposed to have become more civilized over time, but I see that not everyone has, which is why there will continue to be wars in the future.

This has to be the worst list ever of all the year-end lists you've made.

I prefer The Witcher 3, that game is already more than 10 years old, OMG.
Re: Game of the Year: #7 - Lumines Arise
I don't like it even in VR2, by the way, this game hasn't even been nominated on any year-end list of best VR2 games.
I've been saying for a long time that games get worse every year, and this list confirms it.

Re: Mini Review: POOLS (PSVR2) - Niche Horror Is a PSVR2 Showcase
I think what's most frightening is that a game like this has an 8 rating; among the entire catalog, without the glasses it's a mediocre game.
