Not at all.
They were much better years in PC gaming. This year is still rather mediocre for PC gaming. |
How so? This year PC has more big exclusives than any other year I can remember.
|
Big is relative and I would say there are only 5 or maybe 6 games on that list which really deserve that title.
2004 for example was lightyears ahead. Same goes for 2002, 2000, 1999, 1998 and probably quite a few more too.
|
2004's Best exclusives:
- Half-Life 2
- UT2004
- Painkiller
- Far Cry
- World of Warcraft
- Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines
- City of Heroes
- Rome: Total War
- Dawn of War
- The Sims 2
- Football Manager 2005
- Myst IV
- Syberia II
Amazing year no doubt, but look closer. It doesn't have the same amount of great exclusives as 2010 look like it will have.
|
don't forget:
Counter-Strike Source
Doom 3
Sid Meier's Pirates
Battlefield Vietnam
Call of Duty United Offense
Deus Ex 3 certainly won't make it in 2010 and probably a few other games as well *looking at MMOs*
I see only 1 or maybe 2 games that could compete with HL2, UT2004, WoW and Sims 2 this year
|
Pirates and Doom 3 were multiplat. 2010 Games that compete with HL2, UT2004 WoW and Sims 2:
- Civilization V
- Command & Conquer 4
- Guild Wars 2
- Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty
- Star Wars: The Old Republic
- World of Warcraft: Cataclysm
That looks like a pretty big list, don't you?
|
Doom 3 and Pirates were exclusive at that point of time (for about 1 year each). I wouldn't be surprised if C&C 4 and/or The Witcher 2 (or maybe some other games) will come to consoles in 2011, so Doom and Pirates should definitely count.
Star Wars The Old Republic is scheduled for Spring 2011
C&C 4 isn't in the same league as the games I mentioned and you seriously don't want to compare an expansion to the original game....
