Hmmm you know when I look at my collection there aren't that many truly top games (that I've played). Maybe the PS5 gen is not all it's cracked up to be afterall. Having said that here's my top 5:
Elden Ring
Dragon's Dogma 2
Gran Turismo 7
Street Fighter 6
Diablo 4
I did pick up Astro Bot so that'll probably knock Diablo 4 out of the top 5. Other top games such as Cyberpunk, The Witcher 3 and Baldur's Gate 3 I play on the PC.
But yeah I would say the PS4 era was a better generation than PS5.
1. Baldur's Gate 3 - Elden Ring - The Witcher 3 PS5 update 😉 and Stray
2. Ghost of Tsushima DC. Death Stranding DC.
3. Dragons Dogma 2 - AC Valhalla - Final Fantasy 16. Guardians of the Galaxy. Far Cry 6
4. AC Mirage. Jedi Survivor.
Then there's stuff like: Astro Bot only played a little bit, but its good silly fun. Hogwarts Legacy, haven't finished but it is a similar level to the other games not in my top 2 grouping, just much better ones took over from me playing it. Star Wars Outlaws which is definitely good enough for the list somewhere, so far. Even with its janky jank.
It's more like a tier system, and it probably fluctuates a little based on mood at the time. I guess it says a lot about the generation that some are PS4 games that got PS5 versions later on. But then there were also standout games like BG3 and Elden Ring, so there is that.
It's a weird one to rank things, because I can look at my time with Far Cry 6, and understand it's not the best game out there, but I know I really enjoyed my time in it at the time, sliding around, blowing sh** up, being a guerilla fighter, and saying "sneaky sausage" over and over when going into stealth, and then looking in awe at some really hilarious bugs, bugs that were funnier than the scripts in most games.
Other stuff i've tried but just not mentioned like Horizon FW and Spider Man 2, because sometimes lots of people saying a game is good, doesn't make it so. And they just didn't click with me compared to some of the others. Although I think Horizon is far better than SM2 for its unique IP alone and I enjoyed Zero Dawn, kind of, ish
Based on PS5 games I've finished/played a decent chunk of, my rough list would like something like this:
1 *Astro Bot
2 Elden Ring
3 Returnal
4 Demon's Souls
5 Lies of P
6 Gran Turismo 7
7 The Last of Us Part I
8 Death Stranding: Director's Cut
9 Sackboy: A Big Adventure
10 It Takes Two
11 The Last of Us Part II Remastered
12 God of War Ragnarök
13 Astro's Playroom
14 What Remains of Edith Finch
15 Death's Door
16 The Quarry
*Breaking my own rule a bit with Astro Bot as I'm not really close to finishing it but I already know it's going in at number 1 based on the first 5 hours or so
My Top 5 PS5 games so far:
1. Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart
2. Kao the Kangaroo
3. Cat Quest 3
4. Doraemon Story of Seasons: Friends of the Great Kingdom
5. Paleo Pines: The Dino Valley
1. Returnal
2. God of War: Ragnarok
3. Astro Bot*
4. Jedi Survivor
5. Humanity
6. Horizon Forbidden West
7. Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart
8. Spidey 2

When I think about it, a lot of the AAA third party stuff has been quite disappointing for me this gen. I find most of my enjoyment coming from Sony and Nintendo first party games most of the time.
1. Elden Ring
2. Cyberpunk 2077( I only played it after the big next gen update so technically a ps5 game for me)
3. Ghost of Tsushima DC
4. Final Fantasy VII remake Intergrade
5. Demon Soul's
6. God Of War Ragnarok
7. Remnant 2
8. Returnal
9. Horizon Forbidden West
10. Spiderman 2
