Best Video Games of the Decade

Hm, I'll have to get around to playing the console version.

I'm sure the complaints about the 360 version of DA😮 being trash as opposed to the PC version are exaggerated.

The story is still intact. The thing that mods offer is better graphics (obviously), and more combat options. It's already a pretty deep combat system, but the mods take it off a cliff to whole new levels.

Mass Effect 2, Witcher 3, Skyrim, Telltale's Walking Dead season 1, Last of Us, Bloodborne, Breath of the Wild.

Bloodborne.

Actually, I see the ultimate edition is 20 bucks on Gog.

I hear the combat is radically different from the Xbox 360 version, so I may just buy it there. I'd imagine system specs are no longer an issue for even a modest modern laptop.

It was literally designed to run on single-core CPUs, so any kind of dedicated vram should be fine, yeah.

I don't actually play or follow DD, so since I saw "dark arisen" articles pop up in 2019, I assumed it was a new expansion.

They keep re-releasing it claiming it's to "test how the game would sell before making a sequel", but everyone knows they're just trying to compete with Skyrim, it's super obvious.

It's even more annoying when you consider us Dogma fans have been waiting years for a sequel.

Also, Ik you like RPG's so I'm downright shocked you haven't played it.

It says best but I assume it means favorite?

These are talking only the games I've played or beaten:

Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Final Fantasy: Dissidia Duodecim 012
Gladiator Begins
Minecraft
Kingdom Come: Deliverance
Dark Souls (Never beat it, but I love it)
Grand Theft Auto V
Way Of The Samurai 4
Mount & Blade: Warband
Batman: Arkham City
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (Haven't beaten it yet)
Dead Island
Dying Light
Chivalry: Medieval Warfare
Borderlands 2
DOOM (2016)
Fallout: New Vegas (Never beat but played the shit out of it)
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
A Hat in Time
Sleeping Dogs
Undertale
Diablo III (Isn't the BEST Diablo game, but it belongs here)
SoulCalibur V (Say what you want about the story, but the gameplay was improved in just about every way possible, which is why I put it over IV)
Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag (Best game in the series, IMO)
God of War III
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance
Splatoon 2
Sunset Overdrive
Injustice: Gods Among Us
Mortal Kombat 9
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Star Wars: Jedi: Fallen Order
Metroid: Samus Returns
Super Mario Odyssey
Super Mario Maker
Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor
TWD Season 1

I KNOW I'm missing some but meh, the list is long enough.

Updated list:

Grand Theft Auto V
Red Dead Redemption
Red Dead Redemption II
The Last of Us
Batman: Arkham City
Spider-Man (PS4)
Super Meat Boy
Portal 2
Dead Space 2
Super Mario Odyssey
God of War
Shovel Knight
Uncharted 4
The Walking Dead (Telltale)
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow
Bioshock Infinite
South Park: The Stick of Truth

I will give ten of my favourite of this generation:

Mass Effect 2 and 3
Red Dead Redemption
The Last of Us
GTAV
Alien: Isolation
Witcher 3
XCOM 2
Horizons: Zero Dawn
God of War 4
Crysis 2

Overwatch is definitely on the list

I haven't been a huge gamer for a number of years now, but in no particular order I'd say; New Vegas, Arkham, Skyrim, Witcher III and a special mention for The Last Of Us, which was IMO a game changer (pun intended).

Dead Space 2 definitely makes it to the list as well.

It might not be as good as DS1 but I remember replaying the shit out of it for like 11 playthroughs back to back in 2012.

When it first came out, I was totally on-board that Dead Space 2 was better than the first.

After replaying the entire series a few times....Dead Space is something special. Dead Space 2 is still amazing and the fantastic sequel. For a first game in a series, Dead Space knocked it out the damn park.

Ars Technica has an interesting Youtube series about developer stories and they had the creative director for Dead Space recount the development of it. They basically created a set of rules that game had to abide to and all the special things about this game are directly attributed to these rules. Also, the tentacle sequences were supposedly extremely tough to create and almost killed the game. But...the creative director through it was extremely important to have.

Dead Space, man that was a ****in game

And yeah, DS2 is still phucking good. It's to DS1 what Aliens was to the Eight Passenger.

It was. It's a game that I will be able to play for the a very long time.

Except for that stupid asteroid minigames.
