The Millennium Mega Hits (Part 1)
from Gametalk Hosted by Gametalk
Episode 184 Circana, a well-reputed US market research company, has published the top 20 selling games each year from 2000 - 2023 (https://www.circana.com/intelligence/entertainment-top-10/2024/gaming-through-the-decades-us-top-20-best-selling-video-games/). On today's episode, we analyze this list of titles from the dawn of the new millennium, reflect on popular trends that no longer exist, and discuss a plethora of games that shaped our taste growing up. We chat about the games on the list from 2000 - 2010, and plan on covering the rest of the list next week in a part 2. As always, we conclude with the games we're playing (Metaphor: ReFantazio, Factorio, Deadlock). This episode was recorded in October 2024. Royalty free music from BenSound.
