Forums - Gaming Discussion - From 0 to 10, rate the year -- 1998 in gaming

10. easy.

I doubt any other year would earn that from me.



Around the Network

Star Wars Rogue Squadron was released in 1998 as well...

But yeah, 1998 might have been the best year ever in gaming, so I have to say 10/10



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

has there ever been a better year for gaming??


i don't know really but i feel like 2001 and 2009 competes with 1998 for me.

what was released those years? and didn't people feel like 2011 rivaled 1998?

2001: MGS2-Devil may cry-Ico-Halo-Silant hill 2-Jak and daxter-Twisted Metal Black-Gran Turismo 3-Final Fantasy X-Grand Theft auto 3 to name a few...

2009:Assassin's Creed 2-RE5-Killzone 2-Uncharted 2-Ratchet & clank: a crack in time-Flower-Batman: arkham asylem-inFamous-Prototype-Trine...

but 2011 was also a great year for the PS3 thats for sure;)

Yeah, that's some pretty great years as well!! But they're not beating 1998 ;)

Fair enough :)



Just because of Xenogears and Starcraft, it was for me one of the best years in gaming.



Xenogears and Zelda OoT

a 10/10 right there so 11/10 for 1998



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

10 just because of Xenogears.



I am the Playstation Avenger.

   

I've never played Xenogears! *raises shield*



At the time, the only game I had played was Parasite Eve, the main chick was plastered in various stages of undress in pretty much every gaming magazine I can think of.

Eventually, I came to love Half Life and Thief, thats about it for that year. Never liked MGS, Resident Evil or Nintendo so....

....7/10.



10/10

Virtually every single game on the list can be regarded as a classic, many of which redefined their respective genres.



10/10

Not every game on that list has held up well, but as far as the 5th generation goes this is unbeatable. Strong PC showing really pushes it over the edge for me (though it was really a strong EVERYTHING showing).
