BigNerdGaming’s Top 10 Video Game Narratives of the 2020s (So Far)
Welcome to my newest insane project! One of my favorite projects is the “BigNerdGaming Awards.” It’s a yearly project where I take ten different categories and rank my top 10 from the year in each one. It’s mildly unhinged and showcases my true devotion to ranking things. After a friend of mine asked me what…

BigNerdGaming’s Top 10 Games of the First Half of 2026
Gaming content has become pretty depressing these days. We have literally had news of massive layoffs, price increases, or the end of physical games happen pretty much weekly in recent months. Despite it all, good games just keep coming out about as often as the bad news hits. There are a large combination of factors…

The 2026 BigNerdGaming Mid-Year Game Awards
There are many reasons why I started this blog, but one of the biggest was that I desperately needed a place to showcase the insane amount of ranking I was doing purely for myself. Posting the BigNerdGaming awards for the past several years has been great, but it wasn’t enough for me. I needed more.…

My Way Too Early 2026 Game Awards Nominee Predictions
I didn’t think I could do anything more to show off how big of a Game Awards sicko I am. I have consistently predicted the “Game Awards” nominees both in the middle of the year, and right before the ceremony. I make customized betting odds for them, and I do several other articles about them…

My 17 Biggest Winners from Summer Game Fest Week
I’m low on time this week, so I’m going to skip most of my usual, overly long intros to my lists. If you are here, you might be a ranking sicko like me. If that is the case, reading my ramblings before getting to the list probably feels like when an online recipe has a…

BigNerdGaming’s Top 25 Games of All Time
Close to two years ago, I started making various console top 10 lists in the hopes of segmenting games I’ve loved over the years a bit so that it would be a bit easier to actually put together a list of my favorite games of all time. Despite how much I love ranking, and how…

BigNerdGaming’s Top 10 Nintendo Switch Games
We are almost there. Roughly two years ago, I made my first console top 10 list, with the eventual goal of essentially using all of these lists to better craft my “top 25 games of all time.” After this list, we will finally be there. I won’t be making lists for the PS5 or Xbox…

The Top 10 Games of the 2020s That Will Age The Worst
After posting my “Top 10 Games of the 2020s That Will Age The Best” yesterday, I naturally needed to compile this list. Life and clickbait are all about balance. The big thing I want to clarify here is that this list is not saying “people will say these games suck in 20 years.” In the…

The Top 10 Games of the 2020s That Will Age The Best
In my recent mailbag post, my friend Ross asked me what modern games I considered timeless. My first instinct was to say that pretty much any modern game that is well-regarded will probably be timeless. I think there are plenty of games in the early 3D era that were considered amazing that have not aged…
