Sorry for the error in the video. (showing Dragon Quest IX footage in the Metaphor area). We had to make this all in one day (yesterday), and didn't have time to properly quality check it, we also reused footage from our old videos :X Mark is a great video editor, but he doesn't play most of these games. Again, sorry about the oversight. - Azario
It was in the first draft, but in terms of these other titles, it would do better on our other awards releasing later this month. It’s a really good game, though! - Azario
Sad Persona 3 Reload didn't make it, but my vote goes to Stellar Blade. The game and its devs are refreshing gaming and for every misstep, they go 2 into the right path. Exemplary, exciting and promising!
Ys X was my most anticipated game of the entire year. A new entry in one of my all time favorite franchises, made by my favorite developers in the business and it didn't disappoint in any way and instantly became an all time classic to me. Exhilarating and stylish combat, a beautifully inspiring narrative with a fantastic cast of characters, a sense of adventure and exploration that only Ys can truly capture, a rocking soundtrack full of memorable melodies and some of Falcom's best presentation yet all make Ys X: Nordics a masterpiece in every sense of the word, a journey I won't soon forget and one that everyone deserves to experience.
@@NoisyPixelNewsno way. Astro Bot is virtually 3D platforming perfection. It’s also a far more ambitious game than Antonblast, being 3D and full of high tech technical excellence. Antonblast is a great fast paced 2D platformer, but there’s levels and Astro Bot is a AAA game that actually walks the walk.
Was hard to choose between Stellar Blade and Ys X, but as much as I LOVE the Ys franchise, I had to give it to the new kid on the block for giving us such an amazing, polished game as their first real game. Haven't played Metaphor yet though. Most anticipated game has to be Atelier Yumia, because I haven't felt this excited about an Atelier game for along time.
Having Sand Land as the favorite game of the year is surely a choice lol I was liking the game until I went for the platinum trophy, then I saw all the cracks behind the mechanics and after much struggle, I gave up the trophy and moved on to different stuff. Oh, and Prince of Persia The Lost Crown is my favorite game of 2024, and actually the first I played this year. Probably the best metroidvania ever made.
God damn it. Mark doesn't know anything about these games so he gets confused when editing them sometimes, plus this was rushed yesterday. Sorry about that. Damn. - Azario
As the proud owner of EVERY single one of these games I have to say this list is top tier! My top 3 would have to be Sparking Zero, Stellar Blade. And Tekken 8. That being said. I havent actually played Metaphor or Y's X yet. They were purchased day one but My backlog is insane. This is definitely a list made by actual gamers! Well done Noisey Pixel...
Unpopular opinion, EDF 6 is my game of the year. Im not saying all of these are not good games. Its just EDF is the best after working all day. Just turn off your brain and have fun with friends 😂
I'm glad Eiyuden Chronicle didn't make the list. As a big fan of Suikoden I was so disappointed by Eiyuden Chronicles. I definitely agree with one of the other commenters about Unicorn Overlord. That was a big surprise and may be my favorite game of the year. Possibly tied with No Rest for the Wicked.
Assassin's creed shadow is getting released in 2025 but you don't have it in the most anticipated 2025 games list... Totally justified. it would just take space 😂
Voted! I can't wait to play Suikoden 1+2 next year! I own the OG discs, but I haven't used an old Playstation since CRT's went out of style. I've always considered the pair as one long game and I count it as my overall favorite of all time ❤
@@NoisyPixelNews haha. As an inveterate contrarian, I have to give love to the underdogs! I'm currently about 50 stars into Isles of Sea and Sky and so far having a blast with that one as well. What a great year for games of all genres.
Oh boy. How am I gonna choose between DQ3 and Metaphor??????? Meanwhile, opposite problem, I'm not really anticipating any of the 2025s listed (or in general to be fair!)
I take it the channel has a heavy lean towards JRPGs and anime/japanese content in general? Seeing as though no mention of some far bigger and/or higher rated games like: Astro Bot Balatro Mullet Madjack Helldivers 2 Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown Black Ops 6 UFO 50 Lorelei and the Laser Eyes Minishoot Adventures Tactical Breach Wizards Shogun Showdown Thank Goodness You’re Here Warhammer 40k Neva Kill Knight The Crimson Diamond
@@NoisyPixelNews You're missing out, Balatro is no joke, and that's coming from someone who really dislikes rouguelikes for their repetitive nature. That game was made by a literal genius, I tell ya. Anyway, if those are your nominees then those are your nominess. Strange about no Death Stranding 2, though.
@@NoisyPixelNews Yes, you probably should at least consider it. Me before playing Balatro: "What the hell is this game doing in TGA nominations." Me after playing it: "I won't even be surprised if it wins, it 100% deserves it." Although, tbh, the new PoP would get my vote, cause that game is just insanely good. Shame it didn't get nominated.

Its actually Dragon Quest XI not IX though
No Unicorn Overlord?! That's the best game of 2024!
It was in the first draft, but in terms of these other titles, it would do better on our other awards releasing later this month. It’s a really good game, though! - Azario
IKR, but you know how most gamers are, its about main stream ig
@@AT-nn9dd I like that game too however strategy games are niche so it's not about mainstream
Now *THIS* are some good awards. 👏🏻
Thank you
Stellar Blade
No Romancing Saga 2 ??
It wouldn't have made a dent compared to the other games. It's on my personal list though and may win some of our other awards - Azario
Be for real, please 😅
@@to-goyo a boy can dream
Sad Persona 3 Reload didn't make it, but my vote goes to Stellar Blade. The game and its devs are refreshing gaming and for every misstep, they go 2 into the right path. Exemplary, exciting and promising!
I think it’s on some of our personal lists coming out!

Trails through Daybreak is my goty. My first and definitely not last trails game.
I'm playing cold steel right now it's really good.
Emio over Astro!? What madness is this
Antonblast might be a better platformer than Astro…just sayin 💁♀️ - Azario
@@NoisyPixelNewsno way. Astro Bot is virtually 3D platforming perfection. It’s also a far more ambitious game than Antonblast, being 3D and full of high tech technical excellence.

You bring up good arguments lol - Azario
Surprised Space Marine II did not make the list.
These are almost all asian games and I am fully for this!
We calls em as we sees em
Tbf what big Western game released this year? All the big ones are slated for 2025-2026.
Was hard to choose between Stellar Blade and Ys X, but as much as I LOVE the Ys franchise, I had to give it to the new kid on the block for giving us such an amazing, polished game as their first real game. Haven't played Metaphor yet though.

Guess I really should give Sand Land a chance, huh…

Now this is a proper game of the year list.
6:47 - Guys, I'm sure that's Dragon Quest XI
God damn it. Mark doesn't know anything about these games so he gets confused when editing them sometimes, plus this was rushed yesterday. Sorry about that. Damn. - Azario
@@NoisyPixelNews It's ok, we all make mistakes. At least it was a great game :D.
It kinda made me want to play it - Azario
@@NoisyPixelNewssomehow the editor not know which anime game is which makes it funny for me
Well seeing as Stellar Blade is the only 2024 game that I've played it has my vote by default.
As the proud owner of EVERY single one of these games I have to say this list is top tier! My top 3 would have to be Sparking Zero, Stellar Blade. And Tekken 8. That being said. I havent actually played Metaphor or Y's X yet. They were purchased day one but My backlog is insane. This is definitely a list made by actual gamers! Well done Noisey Pixel...
Sparking Zero, lost my vote when the Freiza SSJ fight had no sound when goku transform. Disrespect.
My most anticipated is definitely Atelier Yumia, as for Goty nice surprise to see Tsukihime on here!
FF7 Rebirth 🔥
Suikoden 1&2 🔥
Stellar Blade, Tsukihime, GS Nightmare Feast, Unicorn Overlord, SMT5V, Sparking Zero, FF7 rebirth, Yakuza like a dragon infinite wealth
So many great games, it's hard to leave Stellar Blade behind, but Metaphor stole my vote.
Unpopular opinion, EDF 6 is my game of the year. Im not saying all of these are not good games. Its just EDF is the best after working all day. Just turn off your brain and have fun with friends 😂
Not a bad game of the year to have lol
Goty is such a subjective concept. If that is what you enjoyed most then it is your goty.
I'm glad Eiyuden Chronicle didn't make the list. As a big fan of Suikoden I was so disappointed by Eiyuden Chronicles.
I definitely agree with one of the other commenters about Unicorn Overlord. That was a big surprise and may be my favorite game of the year. Possibly tied with No Rest for the Wicked.
Voted ! And Trails in the Sky FC remake could have been a good choice for 2025, but Daybreak 2 is fine 😄
haha we are still in the dark on that release even with our insider access
I know it wont win but I'm voting for Tsukihime out of pure love.
It’s not out of the race :X
No Astro Bot just nullified this list!
My 3 favorite games from this year are Persona 3 Reload, Ys X Nordics and Horizon: Zero Dawn Remastered.
Where are Nine Sols for Goty and Metroid Prime 4 for most anticipated.
Assassin's creed shadow is getting released in 2025 but you don't have it in the most anticipated 2025 games list... Totally justified. it would just take space 😂
yea, we've learned to keep those most anticipated more focused to our audience, they can get a little out of control sometimes.
I voted Black Myth Wukong 🎉
dragon quest footage mixed with metaphor refantazio? 🤔 6:48
Ugh, that was Mark. He doesn't know anything about these games, but he's a great video editor. Damn, we hate when we mess up like this. - Azario
Voted! I can't wait to play Suikoden 1+2 next year! I own the OG discs, but I haven't used an old Playstation since CRT's went out of style. I've always considered the pair as one long game and I count it as my overall favorite of all time ❤
thanks!
0:01 who is that girl in green top what game is it
That’s Yuffie from Final Fantasy VII…
No astro bot is crazy
I really enjoy these end of the year polls. Voted ✓
thanks!
Thanks for the vid
You guys put me in a tight spot on the vote. I was torn between two of them. I had to make a call😭
Ooo tbh this is the most traffic we’ve had to our reader’s choice poll so we’re excited to tally the votes!
@NoisyPixelNews And rightfully so😁
@NoisyPixelNews Keep up the great work! You guys are awesome
visions of mana?? it is so good !
Cant vote for Tsukihime as the game still hasn´t had a physical release in Europe ffs.
why did you put melty blood type lumina in the thumbnail if you're not gonna talk about it?
Is this a joke?
Tsukihime ❤
Made the list!
🎉
party time
stellar blade, metaphor: refantazio, all else skip
Top three this year: Promenade, Master Key, and Minishoot' Adventure.
bringing out the deep cuts!

Neva

The Crimson Diamond
Sure those games are good, but they ain’t game of the year material. - Azario
I can’t help it but thinking that if FF rebirth had less minigames and was turn based how much better it would have been.
Thank god no gacha mobile games
Sorry, what? Where's Balatro? And more importantly: where's Death Stranding 2?
We only can vote on what we covered...Balatro...meh, even with all the hype...I don't think it'd be on this list. - Azario

Ff7 rebirth, it was better than every other game this year which was an awesome year for games. There all great but not as great
