The Millennium Mega Hits (Part 3)

Episode 186

Circana, a well-reputed US market research company, has published the top 20 selling games each year from 2000 - 2023 (www.circana.com/intelligence/ente…ling-video-games/). On today's episode, we finish analyzing 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 throughout the years. We chat about the games on the list from 2016 - 2023. As always, we conclude with the games we're playing (Alan Wake 2: The Lake House, Age of Wonders 4, Factorio: Space Age). This episode was recorded in November 2024. Intro and outro music composed for Gametalk by Dylan Chase (dylan.robert.chase@gmail.com).
