I'm going to cheat and put it there though now i have played it though.

Wow, TLOU and infinite came out in the same year?

I've missed a few like Persona 4, Heavy Rain, Splinter Cell Blacklist/Conviction

So many great games

TLOU, GTA V and Infinite yeah.

holy shit

There's loads of games i missed because i wanted to restrict myself to one.

For example i loved Metroid Prime: Corruption but it came out the same year Bioshock, Mario Galaxy, GOW 2, Mass Effect etc etc.

Edited my list to have one each year like Great Leader. And forgot about God Of War II on 2007.

2001: GTA 3

I basically played platformers and adventure games exclusively before the 360/PS3 era lol.

Didn't become a game of anything other than WoW, FIFA and GTA until 2013 tbh

Catching up atm.

I didn't start gaming hardcore until the start of 2007

2006: Oblivion (played it in 07)
2007: Lost Planet: Extreme Condition (basically got me into MP gaming and was insanely fun, still probably my favorite MP game ever, I played it for like two years ffs)
2008: Fallout 3
2009: Assassins Creed 2 (Uncharted 2 and this are basically a toss up, I didn't play Uncharted until 2013 though)

How is one meant to choose between TLOU and Bioshock Infinite lol?

Picking one game only too

2016: TBD since not finish TLG but Dark Souls 3 as of yet
2015: Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain (might be the best year for gaming in the last 10 years?)
2014: Dark Souls 2
2013: fuarrrkkkkkkkkkk Idk how to choose between two of the greatest games of all time. It's literally a coin flip. I can't choose one. Bioshock Infinite and TLOU both.
2012: Counter strike: Global Offensive
2011: Batman: Arkham City

2010: Fifa11
2009: Difficult choice between Uncharted 2 and Arkham Asylum but I'll go with Arkham Asylum
2008: Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
2007: Bioshock (what a year though )
2006: Company of Heroes
2005: Age of Empires 3
2004: Half-Life 2
2003: Need for Speed: Underground
2002: Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
2001: Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty

2000: Red Alert 2 (final fantasy 9 close 2nd)
1999: Final Fantasy 8 (Age of empires II close 2nd)
1998: Metal Gear Solid
1997: Final Fantasy 7
1996: Red Alert

Need for Speed: Underground I was unbeatable online on PC. Played the shit outta that game

I know we touched on it before but it's crazy that we will have had (if ME holds up) like 5 games that will be among the best this generation and probably spawn important franchises in the future (Nioh, Horizon).. Horizon, Nioh both among the best games I've played since 2010 period. Then you have Zelda that's probably going to end up the highest rated game this gen lol. Mass Effect will probably be high 80s metacritic. Persona 5 Mid 80s. All within like 8 weeks of each other

Ghost Recon Wildlands has pretty good reviews, but about what I expected, The Division has an 80 on metacritic. The Ubisoft formula usually lands in the 80s but they all just feel too similar and get boring after a week.

Nier is sitting on a 89 atm lol.

Can see it dropping though.

Nier reviews are as good as Horizon's.

Wonder why it has such high reviews? Is it that good?


Who is gonna test it out on GL for us?

Also lol at the console exclusive games. From IGN

PS4:
Nier: 90%
Horizon: 88%
Nioh: 87%
Yakuza 0: 84%
The Last guardian: 82%
Gravity Rush 2: 80%
Tales of Berseria: 79%

vs

Xbox One:
Forza Horizon 3: 91%
Gears of War 4: 84%
Halo Wars 2: 79%
Dead Rising 4: 72%
