Still, to ensure complete impartiality, we're going to use the highest-rated games on Metacritic to determine what the best was. So, here are The Best Video Games From Each Of The Past 10 Years, Ran

Uncharted 4: A Thief's End was the perfect sendoff for Nathan Drake — character fans latched onto a whole generation prior. The story follows a retired Drake who is thrust back into the treasure hunting life when his brother — whom he thought was dead — returned to his life. Throughout this, we discover Drake's past, even playing through critical moments of his life as he and his brother race against their long lost friend to find Captain Henry's forgotten pirate treas

This one would be impressive if it wasn't done by accident. Not only can players shoot the hats off enemies, exposing their foreheads to the sun or revealing a bald spot, but enemies can return the favor and shoot Arthur's hat to the wind. You can do a lot of things to people, but tampering with their headwear is a whole other level of insult. Fortunately, Arthur has magic hat regenerating powers, but the NPCs he shoots down don't have the same abil

In Grand Theft Auto , one could catapult themselves through a car windshield if they crashed in the right way, serving as a public service announcement on the importance of seat belts. Unsuspecting horse riders in RDR2 found themselves jettisoning off their steeds if they ran into a fence or tree too f

Heralded as one of the best video game stories of all time, Red Dead Redemption 2 takes you down a path of hardship, one that is unrelenting and pockmarked with violence. While your choices in the game may amount to nothing more than a morality meter, this doesn't quite affect the overall playthrough. And, with a variety of stranger missions and side quests to follow, there's still nothing more memorable than the experiences bequeathed in the original. One of the most fascinating mechanics in Red Dead Redemption 2 are random events, wherein the player can choose to assist an ailing passerby or ignore them. This, however, becomes a consistent nuisance as you travel throughout the wide-open sandbox. It's almost as if the game itself is trying to pry you away from your own experience at every t

Due to creative differences with Angel Studios, Capcom ended up canceling the game, and there was a time when the world was almost never introduced to the Red Dead world, which is a strange thought considering its success. Thankfully, this is where Rockstar stepped in as the recent owner of Angel Studios, one of the Angel Studios came across the game patch notes and the company decided to buy the rig

Arthur can take quite a beating, including falls from what one would think to be fatal heights. Usually though, he is fine. When he falls small distances, he does it silently. But leap from a high enough point and he starts screaming for his l

Considering he was a former slave it's likely that it was due to racism or pro-slavery ideals. This led Lenny down a dark path that had him killing those men for killing his dad. It was purely revenge and caused Lenny to go on the run before finding comfort inside the Van Der Linde g

Red Dead Redemption 2 raised the bar for storytelling in big budget, AAA titles. Arthur Morgan's journey is unlike anything gaming has ever attempted before. The narrative is beautifully somber and emotionally impactful. The game play usually complements this vibe, with the shooting feeling heavy and the long horse rides giving players time to mull over the character's situation. Other times however, the gameplay results in unintentional hilarity. It is an open world game after all, and player freedom always leads to comedy gold. Here are ten ways this masterpiece is unintentionally hilarious, both in gameplay and in the st

The mission that had Arthur Morgan yelling for Lenny as the two were both extremely drunk quickly became an internet meme and had people across the globe yelling out for their lost friend Lenny. Lenny was more than a joke and represented an interesting perspective on the outlaw life. Here are 10 facts you probably didn't know about Lenny, LE

Grand Theft Auto V is the quintessential open-world game. In this bonkers commentary of modern America, players take control of Michael De Santa, Franklin Clinton, and Trevor Philips as the three plan out and execute heists all while the equivalent of the FBI breathes down their throats and uses them for their own g

Lenny had a close relationship with his father and was willing to learn any and everything his father was willing to teach him. The watch was the last physical connection he had to his father and it likely broke his heart when he lost

Following up the record-shattering Grand Theft Auto V was no easy task, but Red Dead Redemption 2 surpassed it with relative ease. Take-Two Interactive, Rockstar's parent company, stated that within the first eight days of its release, Red Dead Redemption 2 sold 17 million copies . That may not sound like a lot, but it's much more than what Red Dead Redemption sold in the 8 years of its existence. Intriguingly, not a mere five months after the game's debut, Take-Two Interactive's share prices dropped 20% with investors worried about the game's level of engagement. This highlights the reality plaguing Red Dead Redemption 2 : downplaying satisfaction. Intelligent investors knew that Red Dead Online was never going to be on par with its cash-grabbing cousin, GTA Onli
