A great list, but whoever wrote the article has the collective testosterone of a 90 year old woman. They called Gone Home, an insufferably dull and boring lesbian teenage girl scavenger hunt, the best game of the year it came out, beating GTA 5, Bioshock Infinite, The Last of Us and the Tomb Raider reboot.
They also called the God of War series "a pretty lackluster series" before its reboot, that the reboot is just a rip off of the Naughty Dog Sad Dad template, and that Read Dead 2 was just sad cowboys. Are you fucking kidding me? The pretentiousness is through the roof with this shit.
Not what my choices would be but some interesting choices highlighting some underrated games. But calling 2011 (one of the best game years ever) not a particularly great year is a strange take imo.
For me Driveclub needs to be in the top ten. This game suffered from a horrible launch but it turned out to be an amazing racing experience. The weather effects was the first time this gen when i had that WOW! moment as the droplets of water streamed down the windows. it was at that point when i felt it was justifiable buying a new console.
the rest would be mostly ps4 games because Sony delivered in everyway. God Of War, Horizon Zero Dawn, Spider-Man, The Last Of Us....
it was a great 10 yrs of gaming.
Nioh, Nier Automata, Resogun, and War Thunder pc are a few more i would add. Gears 5 looks great as well. but chose not to support MS this gen because of what they tried to do in the first year.
I don't own a Switch because i haven't been into Nintendo since i was a child. But Breath Of The Wild, from what i watched was good.
It's just my opinion. Everyone likes what they like, even if i don't. peace!
An element of challenge and obstacles, by which through the learning of the mechanics, and fortitude, you are able to overcome those obstacles. Gone home and firewatch are visual novels. There are no mechanics to be learned. No obstacles or objectives to be overcome. You are simply turning the page and watching the story as it unfolds.
Wow that's tough! If I had to choose I guess I'd go with in no particular order....,
1. Uncharted 2 Among Theives 2. TLOU 3. God of War(2018) 4. HZD 5. RE2 6. Wild Hunt 8. Mass Effect 2 9. Alan Wake 10. Spider-Man
Honorable mentions
Days Gone Death Stranding AC Origins/Odyssey AC Black Flag Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena Halo Reach Infamous Firewatch Gone Home Hyperlight Drifter Outlast Amnesia Yakuza series Everybody's Gone to the Rapture Borderlands Red Faction Guerrilla Killzone 2 DRagon Age Origins Arkham Asylum Heavy Rain Red Dead Redemption RD2 Darksiders GOW III New Vegas Castlevania Lords of Shadows Dante's Inferno AC2 Gran Turismo 5 Enslaved Odyssey to the West Just Cause 2(my fav in the series) Skyrim Arkham City Resistance 3 Infamous 2 LA Noire Dark Souls ACIII Borderlands 2 Far cry 3 Dishonored TWD Darksiders 2 Sleeping Dogs Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning Dragons Dogma Journey I mean I could go on and on and on lol. So may great games released in the last decade!
Pretty sure this decade started with 2009! 09 to 19 is 10 years, which is a decade! Also as far as the 00's first decade it would be 2000 to 2010, not 2009.
i get opinion is opinion, but in mine this list is absolute dog dookie. a bunch of indies and nintendo games. breathe of the wild is not even the best zelda game in the past decade.
In no order
1. Nier Automata
2. TLOU
3. The Witcher 3
4. UC4
5. RE 2 Remake
6. Death Stranding
7. God of War
8. Spider-man
9. RDR2
10. Control
The list is rather lackluster. Oh well, opinions are what they are!

Such a weak list

Still the best looking racer and perhaps the most photo realistic game to date.
