"The 2025 Gaming Rap Up" lyrics
Another year is gone
Another's on the rise
So, when you hear this song
Throw controllers in the sky
We gotta play 'em all
We're gaming through the night
2025 is over
Go and grab you a controller
And throw it in the sky
In the sky
In 2026, we gonna get fired up
2025 is over. The time's up
Let's take a look at the games behind us
In no particular order. This is the line-up
It took 8 years to get another "Hollow Knight" "Silksong"
Never seen a hornet shine so bright
Platformers are the kinda games I don't like
But the story so good. Listen. I don't mind
Acrobatic combat. I'm on the edge of my seat
I level my abilities so I can better compete
Not many in the game are better than me
"Steam"'s "Game Of The Year"
Honestly
That's refreshing to see
"Split Fiction"
Two-player co-op
It's an addiction
You don't know what you're missing
Only gotta buy the game once
Just send an invite to your buddy and beat the game with your best friend
But it's really not a game for beginners
If you wanna be winners
You and your homie
Y'all gotta lock in
Working together to synergistically
Some of the puzzles are a mystery
But go ahead and drop in
Let's talk about the scariest game that came out this year
"Silent Hill F"
I'm shaking in fear
Playing with death, I'm being sincere
Weird things going on way out in Japan
Gotta figure things out
No holding your hand
And look
The lady that played the main character played it on stream and finally beat it on New Year's eve
"Mario Kart World" racing
We got a a new classic
You don't wanna face me, when I pick Yoshi
I'm fantastic
Hit 'em with a blue shell right before the finish line
Catch you lacking
Who is that coming up behind me?
They flying at high speed
And trying to catch me?
Hold up
Drift around the corner
I'm a grand-prix roller
Pop a mushroom, then I can't see no one
Ooh. "Ghost Of Yõtei"
Get it right now. You need to go play
So many side quests. Man, you can get lost
I was 30 hours in before fighting the first boss
Platinumed the game
Fully dominated
Game of the year, but it wasn't nominated
They was saying that the story was a little too woke
Plus a dev got fired from the team for making a bad joke
Yes. You really shouldn't make that joke about Charlie Kirk. That was insane
There's a new "Ninja Gaiden"
Look at this combat
Look at this fighting
Enemies attacking from every side
And that story is bland but the action is fire
"Battlefield 6"
Filling every desire
To blow down a building and set it on fire
When I'm playing, I don't never get tired
So, I don't know why 85% of the people don't even play in no more
On the other side of retention is "Arc Raiders"
Since launch, kept 91% of its players
Battling robotic overlords and opposing factions
Stay alive and get ready for extraction
Caught a little flack for generative AI
But it's fun to ride on the back of a drone as they fly
If you see another player, work together, say "Hi"
But be careful because they're still the enemy. They lie
Hideo Kojima
He put out a sequel
Look at these graphics
There is no equal
Game is so weird
Just look at these people
Some of these visuals should be illegal
Now, we got supers and normies
This one plays like a movie
"Dispatch" coming with the wildest stories
Disable nudity or you're gonna see schlongs and boobies
King Gorilla is back
DK's in the building
No time to relax
Yeah. Look at these fists
We deck and attack
I pick up a boulder
We wrecking the map
I'm punching the ground
Got nanas on stack
I'm running around
Pauline on my back
You stand in my way
You not leaving intact
This game is so fun
I need it like crack
Turned-based RPGs are really in again
Gather up the team and begin in the expeditioning
Dodge and parry a million enemies in the middle of combat
The game of the year!
It's so brilliant
Independent developer is killing it
But there's generative AI in the game
They admitted it
Indie goty award rescinded it
But the game is still good and the players will remember it
Another year is gone
Another's on the rise
So, when you hear this song
Throw controllers in the sky
We gotta play 'em all
We're gaming through the night
2025 is over
Go and grab you a controller
And throw it in the sky
Another's on the rise
