    bugs me you always refer to him as ‘the guy that played Gus in breaking bad’ … doesn’t take much to learn his name is Giancarlo Esposito.



  2. Bub was here on November 18, 2021 at 11:01 am

    5:55 you dont actually go to another planet just an other side of the planet of 4546b



  3. Me on November 18, 2021 at 11:02 am

    Fallout 76 is a good open world game now



  4. crypto dev on November 18, 2021 at 11:03 am

    This didn’t age well. Definitely made a while ago. GTA trilogy is cyberpunk garbage. Glitches everywhere.



  5. Julian Miana on November 18, 2021 at 11:03 am

    GTA Definitive edition being a ‘best game’ is a first



  6. Kyle Frame on November 18, 2021 at 11:05 am

    This review lies!!!!!!



  7. FaZe PoZeR on November 18, 2021 at 11:07 am

    I would ask you to take GTA off this list if it was possible

    Delisting the original releases made this the most overtly out of touch cash grab I’ve seen in a long time



  8. Dave Log on November 18, 2021 at 11:08 am

    i stopped watching when gameranx suggested the GTA Trilogy. Pathetic.



  9. Cody White Music on November 18, 2021 at 11:08 am

    Quit giving rockstar money for that crap so they’ll be forced to make gta 6! Lol



  10. Kirbooi on November 18, 2021 at 11:10 am

    You know the year was shit for gaming when a racing game and Defective Edition is on the " Top 10 open world games ". ( Not hating on Forza, but let’s be serious, it’s a racing game )



  11. Suicide Ink on November 18, 2021 at 11:11 am

    WHY!? inculde such a shit title like GTA definitive!? Shouldn’t be on any list other then Top 10 Most Disappointing Games of 2021… Legit just a cash grab on our childhood… And the fact that Rockstar came out and said they will remaster RDR but only based on the sales of GTA definitive, pretty shitty we ALL want a remaster RDR. And I think it would sell way better then any other remaster they can muster up… Why not give the fans what they want? GOOD games with heart put into it…



  12. Jay Yarbrough Music on November 18, 2021 at 11:12 am

    Man.., super pro presentation. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐



  13. Notlehs on November 18, 2021 at 11:14 am

    Just came here to see what everyone’s being saying about how they had the balls to put the trilogy in their top 10 lol



  14. ReadyAimFire on November 18, 2021 at 11:15 am

    If these are the best, i dont wanna see worst.



  15. Edward Teach on November 18, 2021 at 11:15 am

    Sea of thieves!



  16. Spin Angelo on November 18, 2021 at 11:15 am

    horizon 5 is truly a really nice game and sometimes i just sit there and watch the landscape or visit the city because it looks so nice. even horizon 4 was nice. i miss it a little, this british flair and the funny top gear missions :/



  17. irthiza on November 18, 2021 at 11:18 am

    GTA Trilogy DE in 10 best open world game?
    Boi have you lost your mind?? Because I will help you find it !!



  18. Ryan Garrison on November 18, 2021 at 11:18 am

    So the ghost of Tsushima ps5 version came out this year with the update if your just jumping random open world games that could have taken multiple spots



  19. Sigrafix on November 18, 2021 at 11:20 am

    I like gas station simulator Lol.. House builder too



  20. Yash Gandhe on November 18, 2021 at 11:21 am

    This review was “fantastic”



  21. The Un on November 18, 2021 at 11:23 am

    Skyrim ??



  22. Isaac Robinson on November 18, 2021 at 11:23 am

    Subnatica below zero and forza only ones i have any interest in personally.



  23. najim yasin on November 18, 2021 at 11:24 am

    How is forza horizon 5 in the first while its just a sport game .
    Don’t be a fanboy FALCON !



  24. Axel Jimenez on November 18, 2021 at 11:24 am

    A little disappointed AC Valhalla wasn’t on the list



  25. zigi Tj on November 18, 2021 at 11:25 am

    I really respect gameranx lists but biomutant…….. -.-



  26. MariNate on November 18, 2021 at 11:27 am

    Tales of arise clears the entire list and scarlet nexus isn’t open world.



  27. baron de la chasse on November 18, 2021 at 11:29 am

    i thought you would inclued cyberpunk in this list
    even if everyone is trashing it
    it a wonderfull game



  28. MustafaPS5 on November 18, 2021 at 11:29 am

    gta trilogy is trash and is not worth £55



  29. Scoop Away on November 18, 2021 at 11:32 am

    You guys are a joke. GTA is 💩💩 and far cry 6 is terrible 😂😆😂 Forza is a joke. Forza 4 online hardly worked. Forza 5 should be 🆓 free. Forza is greedy.



  30. Geoff Rogers on November 18, 2021 at 11:33 am

    Tldr; no good open world games came out this year.



  31. Jellosiris on November 18, 2021 at 11:34 am

    Wait is monster hunter rise open world



  32. Majin vegeta on November 18, 2021 at 11:34 am

    I barely played farcry 5 for a few missions so 6 is like the 1st time and I’m so glad I can experience it in that way cause I love it.



  33. Jimmy G on November 18, 2021 at 11:35 am

    never downvoted any of your videos until now. GTA is a garabage fire because rockstar wanted to spend as little money as possible. come on falcon



  34. Abdulhameed Alalwi on November 18, 2021 at 11:39 am

    I have an idea, let’s make an open world game and let everyone build it and enjoy it 😉 URE5 and online for everyone



  35. It's Just Ryan on November 18, 2021 at 11:39 am

    Fantastic villain in FC6? LOL. When was he fantastic? He had like all of 10 minutes of TOTAL screentime and definitely wasn’t as maniacal as Joseph Seed in FC5 or Vaas in FC3. When it comes to dictators I think Trump was probably worse lol. This villain was just a horrible dad that cared more about his nation’s prime export than the nation itself. Being a dick isn’t really scary, ya know?



  36. Bud Green on November 18, 2021 at 11:41 am

    Well I’ve been enjoying San Andreas anyway. I don’t see what all the hate is about. It’s not perfect, but it’s still fun. People just need to calm down.



  37. QUICK on November 18, 2021 at 11:42 am

    There is 0 depth to the protagonist in farcry 6. None.



  38. Majin vegeta on November 18, 2021 at 11:45 am

    Biomutanta needed work on its repitiveness part but I loved the crafting in it. Combat was pretty good. I think ghost of tsushima made me feel the most badass though. Especially when you hit all your perfect parries and follow ups.



  39. The Modding Prodigy on November 18, 2021 at 11:45 am

    I am so disappointed where open world games are getting these days. Looks like there would never be another GTA San Andreas, Witcher 3 or RDR 2, the way the industry is going, trying to sell rubbish and grab cash off of their reputation, but at least I enjoyed Far Cry 6, touchwood.



  40. Tim Littlefield on November 18, 2021 at 11:46 am

    Valheim is so damn good



  41. Devin Culbertson on November 18, 2021 at 11:50 am

    You know the year was bad when far cry 6 is on the list lmao



  42. CHL on November 18, 2021 at 11:51 am

    I wanted to like The Ascent, really badly, but it just felt too janky and rigid from a player control standpoint. 10/10 world, 5/10 gameplay.



  43. Abdul Saboor on November 18, 2021 at 11:51 am

    What about skyrim anniversary edition



  44. Anthony Leclair on November 18, 2021 at 11:51 am

    I’m surprised he didnt have Tomb raider, amazing graphic. Ps4 Tomb Raider intense moment video is available.



  45. Jay Garcia on November 18, 2021 at 11:54 am

    GTA DE is definetly NOT the best way of enjoying those games, in my personal opinion (and world wide probably)

    Get yourself a Ps2 for like $20, and you can get the games like $5 each. (GTA DE IS CURRENTLY $60)

    You get the classic experience, you get a more stable gameplay (Somehow), and the most iimportant to me, full soundtrack. :)))))



  46. dakota nyilas on November 18, 2021 at 11:56 am

    GTA remaster is on here but takes of arise isn’t? The remaster is so bad… lol



  47. 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐛𝐫𝐨 𝐈𝐧𝐭 on November 18, 2021 at 11:56 am

    Nice game



  48. Kawazzie 123 on November 18, 2021 at 11:58 am

    Could you do a top 10 movies battle list please



  49. IRISHDUDE 85 on November 18, 2021 at 11:58 am

    You & Jake pronounce Forza weird.
