The problem with these kinds of threads is that everyone wants to write their list but nobody wants to read other people's lists.

These are games that I actually played that were released these years and enjoyed the most compared to others, didnt actually play them the year they came out. I dont play many games so the choices are kinda easy, at least for the first years.

1997- Golden Eye (so much fun with 4 way split screen and friends)
1998- Zelda: Ocarina of Time(was obsessed with the horse)

2000- Final Fantasy IX (second fav FF)
2001- Final Fantasy X( My fav ff and first PS2 game I bought)
2002- Grand Theft Auto: Vice City( so many things you could do)
2003- Pokemon Colosseum ( one of the 3 games I had on my GC)
2004- WoW( does this even count? if not then GTA: San Andreas, hard year)
2005- Shadow of the Colossus (amazing game and year)
2006- The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
2007- Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare(4player Splitscreen was still amazing)
2008- The Last Remnant(need to finish it lol)
2009- Demon's Souls (The start of a journey)
2010- Civilization V(hard year but only needed to look at hours played on steam)
2011- Dark Souls (going deeper down the rabbit hole)
2012- Farcry 3( this game surprised me, although there was lost potential)
2013- DOTA 2(again does it even count? crappy year for consoles, maybe Pokemon Y)
2014- Nothing worth mentioning( Well "This War of Mine"was decent)
2015- BLOODBORNE( By far the best game I have played, reached the bottom of the rabbit hole)
2016- Dark Souls 3( better than anything else this year)
2017- Nioh( hated the random loot and stats aspect)
2018- Been Busy this year but I played and loved all 3 previous God of Wars so the choice is obvious.

2018 Gran Turismo Sport

GTS came out in 2017 yet I'm still playing it daily, deserves the spot of 2018 for me as it keeps getting better.

Jeez I've been gaming for 40 years already. On to the next 40!

Is GT Sport that good? The online only aspect with no campaign really puts me off. I have been disappointed with the GT franchise since GT4.

Looking back through the years, this was actually really hard, because there's barely any years where I thought it was a clear cut choice.

Dragon's Dogma came out in 2008? Awesome! I couldn't think of a game for that year!!
