Can 2017 be crowned as the best year in gaming already?

My point is that with a game like SC, i think a majority of people would prefer to play 2 to SC1. That doesnt make it inelligble but it does feel like that post on pg1 is just a list and not a fvorite or best year. I also wasnt saying its out of nostalgia or blindness, merely suggesting some people might feel that way. 

 

Also Banjo Kazooie is one of my favorite games(#3), and Half Life would be too had I played more of it. Im sad I cat play MGS. Ultimately though, that list has a lot of filler whereas i think the 2017 list will stand the test of time more efficiently. The median just seems better. Although that is from an outsiders perspective. Its just opinion at the end of the day though. 

 

Also, the only game i mentioned that hadnt released is Odyssey. And we all know hoe good that will be. 

And I totally respect that! 2017 is looking amazing, and I'd be happy if it turns out to be the greatest. If it's your favorite, I am more than cool with that.

I just took umbrage at the idea that StarCraft, in my opinion the single best RTS game made, is somehow filler. Plus the notion that 1998ers like me are elevating 1998 games because of prestige and not because we genuinely love them.

And, yes, I'll eat my hat if Super Mario Odyssey is anything less than a masterpiece :)

To be fair like I saif I havent played most of those games. So take my opinion with a grain of salt. That said it was bad on my part to word all those games as filler. SC definitely isnt, but i think most prefer 2. 

In a few years people will probably say that that year is best because that zelda was better than botw lol

If only Majoras Mask was in 98 instead of stupid Ocarina ; )
