GOTG/etc is debatable, hell maybe there are people out there that think Just Dance is the best game ever made.

As for causing bad software sales in July, what the whatty? No logic there, just clickbait. If more good/great games came out, software sales would be better. That's all there is to it. The market is willing and ready to buy whatever good stuff comes by, but if you release nothing, you get crap for sales. JFC, it's not complicated.

If you ask me, GotG goes to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. I don't think anyone here would disagree the impact that game has had on the industry.

My GotG would have to be Super Mario Galaxy, but I do agree that CoD4 had a huge impact on the gaming industry! It's also the best CoD game to date!

all depends on if you value impact and how it changed a market or how much you personally enjoyed it

Well it have been out for 16 years

If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing (mostly)

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

Oh i know you're sure. People who don't want to see things clearly don't usually doubt their opinions. Which is why their opinions are predictable and biased.

I'm sorry but RE4 redefined 3rd person shooters and an entire franchise as well as methods of story telling... used in TLOU.

I'm sorry but Halo redefined the FPS shooter genre and created a universe of story telling.

I'm sorry but Metroid Prime defined first person platforming in the 3D world as well as being an absolutely excellent shooter along the lines of Halo. The game excelled in everything it did.

I'm sorry but OoT redefined GAMING.

You shouldn't be sorry for stating that. I'de say you should be sorry that you state them as facts. Because most people disagree with you.

Why are you stating your opinion as fact and dismissing someone wuth a different opinion.

(Saying most people disagree with the impact of OoT and Halo is literally wrong though. Even the developers of GTA 3 said OoT anx Mario 64 were inspiration for them.)

@KLAMarine

No offense but did you even play Resident Evil 4? In the video you linked us too there was a complaint that the AI merely shuffles to the side when you aim a gun at them and nothing more, the exact same behavior as seen in RE4. The enemies mindlessly move toward your position, you can stand at the top of a ladder with a knife drawn and they will politely climb up and take a slash, again and again. They rarely think to throw their hatchets / sickles and even when they do they give up and slowly climb up the ladder / through the window and take their knife slash. That's hardly impressive AI for the Ganados, especially for a game that relies on so much combat with them. Then there is Mendez, if you stand just out of reach of his attack, he will end up in an endless cycle where he tries to take a swipe at you, only to fail. Instead of repositioning himself he just mindlessly swipes again and again while you poke him full of holes. I can not think of many other examples because I haven't played the game in years because frankly, it wasn't anything special. Neither the gameplay nor the "story" did much for me outside of the boss battles (the ones that actually worked correctly).
