Ten years. Unforgettable games. One very difficult decision.
Choosing your favorite game of the year is always difficult. You may have a frontrunner and a few others that really leapt out at you, but truly determining which was your flat-out favorite? The one you’d hang your hat on for a given year? Tough stuff.
Welp, get ready for an even more challenging decision — choosing a game that stood above the rest for the entire decade. Gaze in despair at the list of absolute monsters below and try to narrow it down to only one.
It’s impossible! And that’s why our first-ever Game of the Decade poll allows you to choose three games, in no particular order, as your favorites. Don’t see your preferred game below? Write it in at the bottom of the poll and we’ll be sure to make note of it.
When voting ends on January 5, we’ll tally the votes and see which games walk away with Platinum, Gold, Silver, and Bronze awards. We have some guesses as to the winners, but truth be told this was such a strong decade that there’s no way to really predict those top entries.
Better get started!
God of War is probably my No. 1. I expected it to be very good, and it surprised me by being so much better than that.
After that, there are a bunch of games I was obsessed with over the decade, but the ones that come to mind right now are Hollow Knight, OlliOlli2, Nier: Automata, Bloodborne, Fez, Portal 2 and Yakuza 0.
Evil With, The Assassin Creed games,Infamous, Heavy Rain, Detroit Become Human, Beyond Two Souls, The Batman games, Until Dawn, Dishonored were my favorites also
