So The Well-Red Mage came up with this fun community idea. The idea is to list your most favorite video game for each year that you are alive. That means I will make a list starting in 1992, since I was born in 1992, name one game and go on to the next year! I will choose the games I played the most from that year, so maybe not the best game ever haha. Without any delay let’s jump right into the list!
1992: Sonic the Hedgehog 2
1993: Kirby’s Adventure
1994: Final Fantasy VI (Aka FF III)
1995: Super Mario World 2: Yohi’s Island
1996: Super Mario 64
1997: Mario Kart 64
1998: Pokémon Red/Blue
1999: Super Smash Bros
This actually was the greatest year with the best releases. It was very difficult to choose one game to be the best for this year.
2000: Pokémon Stadium
2001: Super Smash Bros. Melee
Another great year with some major good releases.
2002: Super Mario Sunshine
2003: Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire
2004: Need for Speed Underground 2
2005: Fifa Street
2006: Pokémon Diamond and Pearl
2007: Guitar Hero III
2008: Super Smash Bros. Brawl
2009: Left 4 Dead 2
2010: Super Meat Boy
2011: Pokémon Black and White
2012: Dishonored
2013: Pokémon X and Y
2014: Mario Kart 8
2015: Rocket League
2016: Ori and the Blind Forest: Definitive Edition
2017: Assassin’s Creed: Origins
This actually was one of the most difficult choices because 2017 was a huge year on gaming releases. Talking about Ark and Pubg for example. I am playing pubg more and more often, but as I wanted to go for something different than pubg I chose for my goty Assassin’s Creed: Origins.
I really want to thank you for looking through this list! I am very curious to your list so comment it down below!
Have a wonderful day,

Nice choices! These lists actually ended up inspiring me to get back into some of the older games, so I fired up Left 4 Dead 2 and actually just took a break – still as fun as ever! Although, I suck pretty badly. I remember running on Expert mode! But that was back in ’09-’10 soo, I’m almost a decade out of practice 🙂 Managed to log a good 170 hours according to Steam though!

That’s a whole lot of Nintendo Love right there. Can’t say I blame you in the slightest though.

Probably because I grew up with Nintendo haha. I actually had a ps2 and ps3 much later on. Same for xbox 360 haha. But I was thinking about nintendo games today. Like most of them are so insanely good compared to most other console or pc releases

So true! Narrowing it down to one game per year would be difficult even just considering Nintendo games.

It sure is! I had a couple of years where there were 5+ games to choose from. Was almost impossible haha!

Need For Speed Underground 2! Man I spent way too many hours on that game. I bought an old copy to play on my second hand PS2 for some nostalgic gaming, and it… kind of holds up? Gameplay-wise, at least. It’s pretty problematic in other areas, and there’s a very big difference between how cool I thought it was when I was 13 and how cool I think it is at 28.
