So entsteht diese Rangliste
- Die Spiele werden nach dem aggregierten Kritikerscore von 100 gewertet, importiert von IGDB und Metacritic, nie nach den Tier-eigenen Wertungen.
- Ein Spiel kommt erst ab 80 externen Bewertungen ins Ranking, damit eine einzelne begeisterte Rezension nie einen bewährten Klassiker überholt.
- Jedes Spiel wird nur in einem Genre gewertet, dem prägendsten, damit derselbe Titel nie zwei verschiedene Genre-Charts anführt.
- Die Community-Wertungen von F bis S stehen neben jedem Spiel und werden erst ab 5 Tier-Bewertungen als Fakt ausgewiesen.
- Abgedeckter Erscheinungszeitraum: 1970 bis 2026.
- 50 Spiele stehen auf dieser Seite, zusammen mit 27,975 Bewertungen.
- Die Ranglisten werden stündlich neu berechnet; diese wurde am 7 September 2026 zuletzt neu aufgebaut.
