PlayStation’s 100 best games get the PLAY cover treatment

PLAY #15 is out now online and on newsstands, and it’s sure to cause both sage-like nods of agreement and frowned shakes of the head. For the cover, we rank the Top 100 PlayStation games of all time. The best PlayStation games from PS1 to PS5 are all in there.

Subscribers get treated to one of the top four games with special limited edition covers.

Read on to find out more about the list (and what cracked the Top 10), but there’s plenty more crammed into the new issue, from a deep dive into F1 2022, a look at Saints Row’s massive customisability, and even a retrospective on the EyeToy.

You could try to look at things objectively, to quantify how well games have aged, the impact they had, or how good the visual design is. But games are basically collaborative works of art. Everyone’s response to one game or another is going to be unavoidably subjective. Thankfully, Team PLAY is rife with opinions, so we made sure each of us had a say.

We limited entries to one game per series,
