Games get better and better with each passing year, but 2001 was the best year of the most awesome generation.

So far This gen hasn't really impressed me. Alot of potential but pretty much wasted by companies acting like businesses rather than groups of artists. Not enough good new ideas, too many rehashed/redressed old ideas.

You can find me on facebook as Markus Van Rijn, if you friend me just mention you're from VGchartz and who you are here.

This generation has been the best for me because of the Wii and DS. They both have renewed my confidence in my ongoing enjoyment of gaming. Thanks Nintendo

I think this gen is very good ,both the PS3 and 360 are very powerful machines with already lots of brilliant hardcore games (and some casual through Live ,Psn and the likes of Singstar ,Scene It ) and the Wii has its thing for Mario fans and casuals so everybody is happy .

One thing that I dont like ....making content in HD is translating in very long development times and we have to wait aaages for some games to come out .

Reasonable said:
If you judge each gen by market growth then sure, this gen is the best as its the biggest essentally (so far anyway).

I think though that we've seen sacrifices regarding new IP and innovation vs profit.

I haven't really seen a single game yet on PS3 / 360 / Wii that makes me think wow, what a work of genius.

Of course, what are now seen as works of genius (Ico, System Shock, Grim Fandango, etc) all sold poorly vs more average but accessible games - so I guess we only have ourselves to blame.

Still, I do think that there is a nice level of overall quality to most decent games now - and the future should be rosy considering the differnet possibilities offered by each of the three consoles.

dunno about you but cod4 and uncharted made me wow beyond belief i never had so much fun

we really cant judge this generation yet, we havent seen the best any of the consoles can bring out yet. i believe that late 2009 games will define this generation
