  1. GOTY, lets be honest its between FF7 Rebirth, Stella Blade, Wukong and Atrobot. Rebirth being the best

  2. can you guys just stop making content you obviously do not have any idea what your doing at ign

  3. Wukong's the best new game I've played this year (not including Shadow of the Erdtree). #2 is Rise of the Ronin.

  4. Black myth wukong game has no maps, no exploration, repetitive combat, poor performance on console, awful potions system, boring Boss animations, obscure cutscenes with meaningless and bland lines, game is hyped asf🤣 this game ain’t winning goty and doesn’t deserved to be nominated, 7/10 at best. The only good about this game is visual due to UE5.

  5. September, 2024: this gaming year is one of the worst ever, in terms of enjoyable (on a long-term basis) gaming experience.
    December, 2024: not such a bad year, actually. Stalker 2 finally came to release.

  6. Why are people surprised Stellar Blade isn't mentioned. You guys already knew Ign has a few weirdo's that gets triggered by games like that.

  7. Unimpressive list. A fair amount don't belong here at all, with probably a lot missing.

  8. Not a lot of great games this year. So far Black Myth Wukong is the best imo.
    BTW, if Zelda TotK was a 2024 game…

  9. Also let’s name almost every game of 2024, start by all the faults then state why it’s so good…cmon IGN

  10. They gave 8 to wukong, so they gotta include every other shitty game they gave 8 and make this video 50mins long

  11. Beautiful games but why isn’t there stellar blade ? Ever heard of Immersive Translate?? It is a tool with expertly crafted prompts for the gaming industry, that ensures that translations are accurate and resonate with gamers.

  12. Part of the problem with the games industry is that a lot of these highly reviewed games are games have high learning curves or complex backstories. Both of which make then sort of not new player friendly. You don't casually jump into WoW, Destiny 2, or even FFVII.

  13. I’m hearing more complaints for, pretty much, every title on this list, rather than actual praise. Aren’t you supposed to convince us why each game on here is considered one of the best this year? 🙄

    We know you told us you pulled out 2024 titles that have your rating of 8 or above, but make us believe you genuinely like these titles (and actually insert missing titles that deserve to be up there too)
