Why is everyone talking about the games that didn't make the cut?

Birth By Sleep was a wonderful game and my favorite in the KH franchise. It had the most polished gameplay of any KH game and utilized a very fun command system to its full potential. It was also able to make sense and tie up some of the many confusing plot elements that were introduced in KH2 and other spinoffs. I also enjoyed the three character approach and how you got to see the plot of each world unfold from different perspectives. A really great game.

I've never played any GTA game but I knew GTAV would be on the list. The hype and acclaim this game got is probably unmatched to any other game this generation. For me, I prefer more fantastic settings and not being a criminal, so the GTA franchise never really appealed to me.
