BigNerdGaming’s Top 10 Nintendo DS Games
I’ve said this many times before, but one of my favorite elements of a top 10 list is that it can really tell a story, even if the person making it doesn’t intend to do so. When I started compiling this list of my top 10 Nintendo DS games of all time, I didn’t think…

My 10 Biggest Winners From the Playstation’s February State of Play
I really didn’t expect to be writing this post. I had originally planned to drop my review for MIO: Memories in Orbit today. I was aware of the State of Play coming this week, but it had barely been on my mind because these shows rarely get me all that excited. State of Plays are…

BigNerdGaming’s Top 10 Children’s Books of All Time
If you’ve followed this blog at all, you probably know that I really love ranking video games. It tickles something in my brain that makes me happy. But I don’t just love to rank video games. I’ll rank anything that I have any sort of passion for. I could easily rank my favorite sports teams…

BigNerdGaming’s Top 10 Video Game Intros of All Time
After doing a “best endings of all time” list last week, I, of course, immediately started thinking about what a “best intros of all time” list what would look like. So here we are. I believe that having a good introduction is very important for any piece of media. If you have a boring opening,…

BigNerdGaming’s Top 10 Video Game Endings Of All Time

The last three years have made me love gaming more than ever before, which I certainly didn’t think was possible. There have literally never been as many good video games coming out as there have been since 2023, at least if you are tracking critic scores. AAA Studios seem to be more consistent than ever,…

My WAY WAY Too Early 2026 Game Awards Nominee Predictions
For the last two years, I have done something that I consider to be truly sick. I have attempted to predict most of The Game Awards nominees a bit after Summer Game Fest. This is a very difficult task, as some games do not yet have release dates, and many games with release dates get…

BigNerdGaming’s Top 10 Games of 2025
As much work as I put into all of my various 2025 lists, there really is nothing else like a plain old year end top 10. I can make a million different types of weird lists to hype various games up, but there’s literally no way for me to tell you to play a game…

The 2025 BigNerdGaming Awards
Welcome to year three of the BigNerdGaming Awards! All year long, every time I complete a game, one of the first things I do is open a “notepad” document on my laptop. From there, I update quite a few things that I track all year, but nothing more than my various BigNerdGaming Awards categories. I…

BigNerdGaming’s Top 20 Moments of 2025
This is probably my second favorite post I do every year. As great as it is talking about the characteristics of different video games, there’s something extra special about diving deep and exploring individual moments from those games. If someone tells me their favorite video games from a year, I think there are things I…
