Last week we listed out the Top 20 PlayStation 4 games, and now we're back to explain our decisions. Well, sort of. In the video embedded above, your humble host talks through all of the titles that made our shortlist, and sheds a little insight into why some releases are above others. It's a long watch so you may want to make a cup of tea before pressing play – or consider smacking your browser's back button like it's been a bad boy. If you do decide to watch, though, hopefully it reveals a little more about our decisions.

The screen you see before starting the video is funny. There are a lot of angry white dude games on PS4.
@Ralizah Haha, the list isn't too dominated by them, though. Fortunately!
Good video, you explained your reasoning well.
@get2sammyb Definitely, and with awesome looking games like The Last Guardian, Horizon: Zero Dawn, Gravity Rush 2, and Persona 5 on the horizon, PS4 is going to have an even more diverse software lineup that appeals to a variety of gamers (i.e. me and other people who don't really care about angry white dude games).
@Ralizah
Ya honestly, there's maybe 5 games on PS4 I would deem absolute must-haves.
But that's going to be changing very rapidly in the very near future.
@get2sammyb nice video sam,just one point and one question,there are better racing titles on ps4 that actuall are far better than drive club,like dirt rally,project cars and even need for speed,and the question is,your cell phone is pink?
@Major-Zero I don't think Need for Speed or Project Cars come close personally, but I have heard DiRT Rally is incredible. I'd be shocked if it's as feature rich as DriveClub is, though.
Phone's pink, yes.
Great watch, as always guys. I appreciate your list of the 20 best ps4 games thus far. I expect that list to be changing quite a bit by the end of the year. Your top 20 hits all major genres, and really shows off the diversity of games available for ps4.
Jesus Christ! Blink every once in a while you're scaring me!
And btw, DriveClub was terrible idk how people give it such praise. The PS4 is seriously lacking a good driving game.
@Ralizah Glad I'm not the only one thinking this, ps4 games are diverse but still dominated by angry white dudes killing other dudes. I'm glad it's slowly changing, with gravity rush 2, horizon, persona 5, nier automata and others.
Everyone has a personal top list. I respect yours and it is a very good one.
@wiiware Right. I mean, I can enjoy the occasional game where you're some angry, grizzled white dude who is running around violently murdering everyone around him, but too much of that stuff is bad for my soul. I want to be a superheroine and fly around, or control a bunch of Japanese high school kids who juggle the demands of dating and grades with saving the world, or pilot a giant robot and look for a sword that is powerful enough to kill God. I want to do stuff that would only really work in video game form.
That's why Playstation's support from Japanese developers is still so important to me.
@itshoggie Driveclub is really, really, really, really so far from terrible. Soooooo far. Miles. Don't be a thilly goose.
@itshoggie a racing and a BOXING game...
@Mr_Alejo Fight Night needs to make a return.
@itshoggie I need it for sure...
@get2sammyb Any news about that new fight night?
Great video - would be great to see a game fights for the end of year list with everyone arguing their points!
There are a few titles I would have liked to have seen but appreciate how tough it must be to do a list that represents all types of game.
Sammy don't blink
Another video, pass
@dryrain You didn't quite pass though, did you
More love for Driveclub over here , just like Battlefront it's hip to hate on it , even when you've never played it.
I voted 'other' in the top 20 and for Life is Strange . Playing Until Dawn atm and that's pretty decent too.
Why do sites feel the need to justify their reviews and top XX lists? Just put it out there, if people disagree and whine, tell them to stuff it. If i ever make a top 10 list of games i like and get asked "well why is X above A?" because f**k you, that's why.
@Major-Zero He's obsessed with teenage girl pop music, of course his cell phone is pink. He has to try and fit in.
@Napples thanks for clarifying dude before other thoughts come to my mind,lol.
@Napples I thought that for a second, then I realised I was being a bit of an ars*. Nothing wrong with a bit of fun background info explaining their methods.
