2025 had video games. 2026 will have video games. GTA 6 might be one of those video games. However, it’s currently only pencilled in for console next year. Not that I considered writing about it in this sort of article two years running, just for a laugh. That’d be hackish and beneath the level I hold myself to. Well, by about three millimeters.
Welcome to the third ever RPS 100: Readers Edition. This is the (nearly) annual tradition of you, RPS readers, telling us where we went wrong in our annual tradition of trying to fit all of our favourite games into a list of the 100 best PC games of all time.
The list below is your list, voted for by your fellow readers.
The Corridors of Time.
Over the holiday season, we’re republishing some of the best articles from Nintendo Life writers and contributors from 2025. This article was originally published in March. Enjoy!
Note: If you haven’t played Chrono Trigger to completion…what are you playing at? If you’re sensitive to spoilers, come back when you’re done as we discuss end-game details below…

Don’t talk to strangers.
Stray Children launched on the Japanese eShop on 26th December 2024. We weren’t able to review it back in October when it arrived in the West, but we’ve now managed to catch up with Onion Games’ latest…
Your dad’s missing and some weird “uncle” is at the door, claiming to know you. Stray Children just chucks you straight into things with barely a title screen – but perhaps that sort of stylistic confidence is unsurprising coming from people behind Moon: Remix RPG Adventure. Yoshihiro Kimura and Onion Games have delivered a compact, auteur-driven project, heading off on adventures into emotional storytelling rather than into sophisticated mechanics. And it uncovers some impressive treasures on its quest.

We eight scribes from RPS are,
Bearing jokes, we wrote in the past,
Christmas crackers, god we’re knackered,
After twelve months of graft.
O, reader of wonder, loved the most,
Why not subscribe to Supporters posts?
January leading, still proceeding,
See you once we’ve munched our roasts.
But first, time to enjoy your lovely joke!
Please help me.
It was the Christmas of 1992. Mr Blobby was the funniest thing on television (according to your parents), and Whitney Houston had been tricked into singing a love song about everyone’s favourite sentient cardigan, Kevin Costner (I feel like I’m having a war flashback now).

It was an interesting Advent Calendar this year, from my perspective. My top four games – Arc Raiders, Silksong, Clair Obscur, and Hades 2 – were all highly ranked. And then none of my remaining games made the cut. I guess I should have strategically placed these games higher up for a better chance of making the cut. Bit of gaming the system, you know?
So here it is…
And here we are once more! It’s Yule! Navidad! Xmas! Chrimbo! Rudolphtide! Grinchtingle! Erm… Richard Curtistime? Hmm. Merry Christmas, everyone.
It’s been a big year for Nintendo fans and the wider gaming industry, with new hardware, a load of new games, even more new versions of old games, plus plenty of challenges, with life’s regular ups and downs accompanied by many more on a global scale.

Wake up, Sleeper.
Over the holiday season, we’re republishing some of the best articles from Nintendo Life writers and contributors from 2025. This article was originally published in January. Enjoy!
Citizen Sleeper was, coincidentally, one of 2022’s sleeper hits. With its combination of top-tier writing and decision-based gameplay, this table-top-inspired RPG and space adventure pulled us into its airlock and wouldn’t let us out until we had played through the emotional damage of witnessing every possible outcome (and yes, that includes the three DLC packs).
