Dataset: Popular Video Games 🎮🕹️

About this Dataset

Popular Video Games 🎮🕹️

This dataset was inspired by another Kaggle dataset: Popular Video Games 1980 - 2023 🎮, acting as a comprehensive collection of information about some of the most popular video games released. It serves as a valuable resource for researchers, gamers, and enthusiasts interested in exploring the evolution of the gaming industry over the past decades.

This dataset provides a wealth of information about each game, including its title, release date, genre, platform(s), summary, among other data. With this dataset, users can analyze trends, identify patterns, and gain insights into the popularity and commercial success of video games across different platforms and genres.

The difference between this dataset and its inspiration is that the amount of data is greater (60k rows), in addition to having the new column "Platforms", indicating which platforms the game was released on. Also, the "Reviews" column (with the texts of user reviews) has been removed, keeping only the column with the total number of reviews that the game has.

📅 - The data was collected in mid-June 2023, so some values may be slightly different today.
