Another year, another reflection on another batch of video games… but this year is different. Because 2018 was the best year for video games ever.
Don’t believe me? Take a close look at the chief contenders below and make up your own mind… but watch out, because 2018 was pretty nuts. Please note that this timeline has a strong American bias since it mostly reflects US release dates… awesome developments in Japan, Europe, and elsewhere that didn’t have an immediate impact in the US aren’t covered here. That means a lot of important contributions to Japanese and UK gaming history have to wait until they have an impact on the American market. We’re looking at you, Rare.
Below is a list of the best years in gaming history, all leading up to the spectacular 2018.
