I honestly think that the past few years of gaming have been pretty bad aside from a few fantastic games. retromaniac wrote: I will probably have to say 1994: Mega Man X Super Metroid Mortal Kombat II Super Street Fighter II Final Fantasy III Earthworm Jim Super Punch-Out Breath of Fire Donkey Kong Country Super Return of the Jedi Illusion of Gaia NBA Jam Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Castlevania Bloodlines Shining Force II Streets of Rage III Sonic & Knuckles Contra Hard Corps Yuuup! 1995 was also a really good year, 16-bit gaming was at it's peak. Donkey Kong Country 2 and Chrono Trigger came out that year just to name a few.

Also, Did'nt that first person shooter called Black come out in '05? That game was the shit except it did'nt have multiplayer. DARN IT! ! HOW COULD I HAVE MISSED THAT ! ! I got it for my 25th birthday HAHAHAHA uuggh "shakes head" I looked up Black and that came out in "2006".I bought that when it was first released and I took it back, the story wasnt pulling me in. Gorgous looking game play though. But "05" was really good I remember it being hit after hit after hit just really good titles all across alot of diffrent styles for everyone.

Oldschoolgamer83 2 years 7 months ago Posts: 1360	I'd say 1994, '96, '98, 2007 and '11 were the best years for gaming. If I had to give the edge to just one I'd say '98 would get a slight nod over the rest because of Resident Evil 2, Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Metal Gear Solid.

thecrow174 2 years 7 months ago Posts: 9806	1995, because that's when the PlayStation was released in America and the Sega Genesis had good games like Toy Story and Comix Zone. Oh, and the extremely popular Chrono Trigger was released for the SNES that year too.

The Ronin Identity 2 years 7 months ago Posts: 410	Hey everybody, I was just wondering what year everyone thinks was the best for video game releases and what games you liked, just off the top of my head with no aid from google i think my favorite year would be 1997. The games that come to mind most that make me pick that year are Goldeneye and FFVII. I loved both of these games also Mario kart 64 comes to mind as another great game. Whats your favorite year?
