I don't see how this year could be better than 1998. Most of the best from this year are just sequels of the games from 1998. Look at how many oiginal titles there wee back then and now look at how many are simply evolutionary sequels. 1998 wins!

I added a couple more bold* for fantastic, legendary games for the PC and GTA because you know what that spawned.

Hmm I think 1998 has it beat, but it depends on how some of the New Ips and old turn out.
