With the recent Oscar talk, I can’t help but remember all the hubub people made about this year being the year of games. How so many great games were coming out in such short a period of time. I remember them saying that the year before, too.
But they are wrong.
2004 was the year of games. Period. Here’s a quick link to Gamespot’s list, though with a little research I’m sure you could find another title or two they missed.Here’s the quick list: also note that Resident Evil 4 came out in Jan, and God of War 1 came out in March.
- Burnout 3: Takedown for Xbox
- Chronicles of Riddick for xbox
- GTA: San Andreas for ps2
- Half-life 2 for pc
- Halo 2 for xbox
- Ninja Gaiden for xbox
- Paper Mario for gamecube
- Rome: Total War for pc
- Unreal Tournament 2004 for pc
- World of Warcraft for pc
There. That is a year of games.
Kind of a smug statement to make with a list of games where you haven’t beaten most of them…
