What exactly is a 10 year for ya? Can ya think of any or close to it? '98?

1998 was banging. Definitely a 10/10 year. - StarCraft, Half Life, Banjo Kazooi, Baldurs Gate, Fallout 2, Oddworld: Abes Exodous, Ocarina of Time, Tekken and more. - StarCraft is what seals the deal, I still play it today.

But 2007 was also a banging 10/10. - Halo 3, Bioshock, Portal, Assassins Creed, Mass Effect, Crysis, Uncharted, Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, Supreme Commander, Gears of War, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.

Yeah, somehow I knew '98 would be your year. 2007's a great year, I'll add in the Orange box bringing Half Life 2 and the episodes to console and some really underrated games life Def Jam, The Darkness and Heavenly sword. Indeed it was a 10/10 year. Yet so few enjoyed it that actual year as people hadn't made the jump in masses from the 8th gen yet, there was a brief period back then when I'd skip school to play Modern Warfare or Heavenly Sword or end a day "sick" and nearly lost the part time job that allowed me to buy the ps3 and a HDTV in the first place. As good as 2005 was, I think as soon as the ps3 was released in 2007 and into 2008 was the best stretch of that decade even though stuff like Uncharted weren't actually all that great in hindsight as there sequels will show.
