Given that this is a consensus list from across the industry it being generic in some ways actually makes it more useful. The reason Fallout 3 is above New Vegas despite vocal online fandom having declared New Vegas significantly better is the same reason that Fallout 3 is stronger than New Vegas in contests on here - there are a lot of people who prefer Fallout 3 to New Vegas, including people who play a lot of games. They just arent usually talking about it on the internet.

The most notable case I think is Bioshock Infinite. The narrative on that game turned hard about a year after it came out. However a lot of people still really like that game. You could also see this in GOTD2 when it overperformed against Arkham City. For me I am somewhere in the middle on it. While on reflection I share all the criticisms in the moment I played it it was an unforgettable experience. That does stay even though I doubt Ill ever replay it.
