Well, I see so many people saying PS4 has no games, but for me this is the best start to a gen ever. I already have bought 15 games, plus PS+ offerings.

So which one was best for you?

I will just put this here in case anyone needs help remembering gamez

I guess 6th gen cause you had games from GC, Ps2, Xbox and DC and it was quite a lot of games

The one where Super Smash Melee released



Gamecube, Xbox, PS2.
Honestly don't remember all fo them off the top of my head but in various threads ive seen some pretty highly recognized titles that went on to become big franchises.

Halo, SSBM, and ICO (im pretty sure) pretty much trump the first year of this gen alone for quality.

Yeah Im going to have to agree here. PS2 had an amazing first year, dont even have to check GCN or XBOX

But the first year of this gen was Nov 2012 - Nov 2013.



The one where Super Mario in 3D for the first time made Gaming epic :p



The PS2's first year was legendary.



Gen 6.

You include the first year for each console of the generation, not just the first year of the first console on the market. 

Ah, I got it.
