2007 was probably my best year because I was still too young in 1998 and didn't get my first console till 2002. 2011 is looking to be a damn fine year.

I always felt like 2001 was gamings best year but it's hard to argue with that lineup. 2001 brought Ico, Tony Hawk 3, Halo, SSX 2, MGS2, Devil May Cry, Zone of the Enders, Rogue Leader, the Gamecube, and the Xbox.

But with '98 bringing Zelda (I sold my N64 in mid '97 and didn't buy another until X-Mas '99) and MGS, I may change my belief. I still remember seeing the back to back Platinum Awards in EGM. No game had ever gotten a perfect score until MGS. The very next month, it happened again!

01 for me as well...can't forget FFX was released that year as well. Also Lakers went 16-1 in the playoffs and The Raptors made it to the second round (Im a Lakers fan from Toronto so LA and Toronto are my teams)...beautiful year to be me....I think I also got my first kiss that year too....

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

Sonic and Knuckles
Mortal Kombat 2
Super Street Fighter 2
Final Fantasy III

All those rocked my socks off that very year.

older guys like me will remember cool videogames evening with friends playing Moral Kombat 2. 1994 was such a tremendous year...

As of now my favorite year of gaming was probably 2008...

Super Smash. Bros Brawl, Mario Kart Wii, Wii Fit, LittleBigPlanet, Animal Crossing City Folk

I think that 2012 will be the best year for me by far though...

Animal Crossing 3D, Luigi's Mansion 2, Paper Mario 3D, Resident Evil Revelations, Pikmin 3(Hope) and probably more.

2011 is also looking to give 2008 a run for its money...

Mario Kart 3D, Super Mario 3D, InFamous 2, LBP 2, Resident Evil The Mercenaries 3D, Kirby Wii, Resident Evil Code Veronica Remake
