Okay if we are counting an additional 6 months, than second half of 97 and 98 was the golden age of gaming. (If we have to label it that).

I don't need to mention the games of 1998, all we need to know is that the second half of 97 gave us (among other things) FF7. FF7 alone (for alot of people, not me though) outshines nearly all of that list by itself.

I'd agree with the time, late 90's was easily it.

I didn't even have a Playstation, but that was also around when games like Gran Turismo, Goldeneye, OoT, and Starcraft came out. I'm not a big fan of Half-Life (CS is more my thing), but that game was pretty massive, too. I'm sure there are more, but that alone should be enough to give you an idea...

Oh, and Pokemon hit NA at the end of 98. That's a lot of hits right there, on all platforms (handheld, PC, consoles).
