Yes even better than 2007, which gave us great titles like Mass Effect, Halo 3, Cod4, Assassins Creed, Mario Galaxy, team Fortress 2, Guitar Hero 3, Crackdown, Bioshock, Skate, Uncharted, the darkness, the Witcher, portal, rock band, crysis

Holy sh. Maybe not. But it's close.

In 2023 we got:

Remnant 2

Baldurs gate 3

Zelda ToTK

Re4 Remake

Dead Island 2

Cyberpunk 2.0/Phantom Liberty

Street Fighter 6

Diablo 4

Spiderman 2

Mario Wonder

Dead Space remake

Hogwarts Legacy

Returnal

Atomic Heart

Lies of P

Last of us Part 1 remaster/remake

Jedi Survivor

Gta 6 announcement/trailer****** (huge)

Final Fantasy 16

Starfield

Mortal Kombat

Counter Strike 2

Skull Island Rise of Kong

RoboCop

Alan Wake 2

Okay. Actually maybe not. Too many remakes/remastered games. But if it's not #1 it's easily #2. Such a great year.

Zelda ToTK, Diablo 4, and Starfield suck.

Please someone correct if I’m wrong but didn’t half of these games have major issues on release?

[–] flamingdragonwizard@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

No not at all really. Almost all ran fine upon release.

Many of these games aren’t particularly interesting to me. The best years in gaming are gone, as innovation became replaced with reiteration and monetization.

I don’t think we’ll get many games ever again as iconic as games like

Chrono trigger Final fantasy 7 Super Metroid F zero GX Halo 3 Portal 2 Ocarina/Majoras Mask KOTOR Diablo 2 Tetris Pokemon gold/silver Banjo kazooie

Etc etc

Idk man, CS2 isn't a new game, it's just an update for CSGO basically. Not only that, it is kind of a downgrade in terms of content, still lots of maps and game modes missing.

Cyberpunk 2.0 doesn't really count imo. I wouldn't say releasing a broken game and only now fixing it is great for gaming. Don't get me wrong, cyberpunk is amazing, but it didn't release like this, like of should have.

Jedi Survivor was also released in a very broken state.

Starfield and Hogwarts legacy aren't that great honestly. They are kind of painfully mediocre. Definitely plenty of fun to be had, but both are rather shallow experiences.

Not a bad year at all, but the golden age of gaming is absolutely over.

easily 1998 or 1999.

Don’t forget Redfall and Gollum! Those were the real stars of 2023!

[–] Ashbandit@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

In the past 20 years I would say it doesn't even break top 5. I can confidently say 2004, 2007, 2011, 2017, and 2018 were all better.

It wasn't a bad year but it wasn't anything special either imo.

Remove all the games that were unfinished on release

[–] SoligDag@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

You forgot Pikmin 4.

[–] KappaPrideRider@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Baldur's Gate 3 carrying 2023 on its back

Great year for gaming, and one of the worst years for Game Developers.

2002, 2004, 2007, 2010, 2012 and 2015 were my personal favorites.

[–] jsullivan2112@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I liked 2019 myself.
