Oh, and another game I somehow forgot:

Warhammer 40K: Chaos Gate. Arguably the best squad-based strategy game ever.

not according to GameTrailers, they peg "the best year of gaming the world has seen" as 2007.


I'm going to have to go with 1998 though.

Metal Gear Solid, Ocarina Of Time (played through in 2000), Banjo-Kazooie, Tekken 3, WCW/NWO Revenge, and many, many others. A Dream was born that year.




Not only was 1998 the best of video games, it was the best year of pro wrestling in existance. Goldberg peaked, Kane peaked, Mankind flew of the cell, great stuff.

Ha. I'd agree, but kinda off topic, no? I'll help you out here:


WCW/nWo Revenge

Played that game a ton, anyway.

 

I'd probably agree with 1998 taking the best year, though it isn't like I played every game I liked that year anyway. I never had a PS1, and I'm not a big fan of Half-Life, really, it's the mods that made the game. Counter-Strike came out 99', so...
