2000-2010 was the best decade of gaming. prove me wrong.

95-99 was objectively the best

>Ugly as fuck 3D
>Awkward camera
>Horribly low framerate
Had you said 1985-1995, I could have forgiven you.
Though one underage isn't really better than the other, because both are just arguing from nostalgia. The 2000s were objectively better in terms of game quality.
It wasn't until gen 6 that games really got over the growing pains of 3D development and started getting amazing, not just good.

Early 90s were the peak of 2D games, late 90s were the peak of 3D games as well as most of the video game genres with maybe the only exception of action games
Nothing of note happened in 00s

I bet you complain about tank controls too

except for the rise of mobile and the sjw movement. And of course, hd gaming coming to kill everyone who isnt EA

Console wars
PC gaming was at it's worst
Too mainstream-heavy

Nope, the last 7 years have been way better.

fucking please. You think 2010-2017 brought anything good to this world? Fucking kek. It has never been a worse time to be a gamer if you grew up through the 90s.

Graphics is only one point. The other are directly tied to poor gameplay. Or, do you prefer 25fps and an uncontrollable camera that gets stuck behind walls?

I guess it is the worst time if you only like shovelling shit in your mouth from big AAA publishers, but it's the best time if you just like good games in general.
Most of the games i play now have been from smaller developers.
Also, the sheer quantity of games coming out is way larger.

>>383246578
>PC gaming was at it's worst

It's even worse now though

>>383246831
There was a higher average of good games in the 90s and early 00s than there are today.

>>383246878
There were months in between decent games coming out, and they were all expensive as fuck.

More like 2000-2006. Games started getting all casualized after that

>>383246957
Except you're wrong because there was always a hot game coming out every month with decent ones backing them from other companies cause back then, you could make a profit making a game and having it sell well since budgets weren't ostracizing the industry like they started doing after 05.

>>383245747
It has the 2008-2010 time bracket in it, so no it wasn't

>>383246831
>Also, the sheer quantity of games coming out is way larger.
Are you fucking insane? The PS2 was getting more great games in a year than the PS4 and Xbone combined have received in their entire lifetimes.

>>383247007
And you can't make a profit now despite the games industry growing steadily every year?
Seems like your view is very subjective and plain wrong.
And smaller developers usually don't have inflated budgets. Back then you had to be an established developer to bring a game to the masses, making us miss out of loads of talent and ideas.
That is less the case now.

Like i said, gaming was great if you liked cookie-cutter, mainstream, overdone AAA games, but not if you like a high quantity of diverse and qualitative games.
Not to say that there are only good games now and only shit games then, but the average number of good games has definitely gone up.

>>383247167
It's great if you're a PC gamer, though.

>>383246957
On PS2 they could make a game like GTA SA in two years, we have yet to see a current gen GTA or Elder Scrolls cause it takes forever now.

1997-2007 are objectively the best 10 years that we ever had in gaming

>>383247813
I'd say 1996-2006 to include SM64, Quake, RE and Bubsy 3D. But, as a trade-off you forego Portal, Mario Galaxy, TF2 and Peggle.

2070-2080 was objectively the best decade for gaming, faggot
