GameSided Top 10 Game of the Year 2014
Now with our Honorable Mentions out of the way, we’re at the moment of truth; our Top 10 Game of the Year list for 2014!
For disclosure’s sake, over several emails this past 7 weeks, the staff have converged to discuss what is and isn’t worthy for nomination. All remakes, remasters and ports were exempt from eligibility. Once we broke it down to a final selection of 30, questionnaire forms were sent out, highlighting all games eligible in a randomized order. I then asked everyone to provide a minimum of a Top 5 list in ranked order, with a maximum of a Top 10 list possible. Here is the points breakdown per ranking:
- 1st place: 14 points
- 2nd place: 12 points
- 3rd place: 10 points
- 4th place: 8 points
- 5th place: 6 points
- 6th place: 5 points
- 7th place: 4 points
- 8th place: 3 points
- 9th place: 2 points
- 10th place: 1 point
With that in mind, let’s get to the final list!
