What is this 2007 meme all of a sudden? All of these games with the exception of Super Mario Galaxy are fucking garbage. Witcher is only kind of okay. Everything else in there is fucking utter irredeemable shit.

Is the sudden talk about "2007" due to this board being populated by fucking 18 year olds?

2007 was better than the last 10 years, but it wasn't the best. 2004 was miles better.

Just the first half of 2017 has been much better than the entire 2007. 2004 is probably still better, but 1997/98 were overall the best years.

And Crysis held on to that crown for many years.

It's kind of sad really. Cryengine is such a great engine, but Crytek doesn't know how to manage anything, so all that potential goes to waste.

>>
>>385131606
Yes they are. The gameplay is choice&consequence.

They just don't have a lot of it. But I think visual novels with genuine choices such as Fate/staynight are more games than linear corridor movie games such as gone home. There is at least choice&consequence in visual novels. So you as a player actually affect things. Gone home is just walking around and touching objects without you affecting anything.

Yeah I didn't like that visual novel either. My favorite is Remember 11 (also didn't like Ever17 desu). But Fate/staynight is a good example because it has like 100 death triggers and is well known. Thus I picked that game for the sake of my argument. If I picked some obscure shit that did the same thing but better you would probably not be able to follow.

3. good graphics
4. good soundtrack

it's just an entirely better experience of a game. Doom is for children.

>>385133732
I think the game with HP regen and a two weapon limit is the one for children. I also noticed you didn't mention the level design, not even a pleb like you can pretend that was good in Halo 1 outside of one or two levels.

Level design doesn't matter if all the environments are boring.
Even The Library is a better level than anything in Doom.

Explain what I'm wrong about.

>>385134164
Better than any environment in Doom.

The past year and the near future feel like they've turned the corner from post 2007 blandness. It's not 1997-2006 tier but at least it's a start.

Sorry to say that your safespace of anime worshipping is more diverse now.
There's a reason there are several boards many of which are not related to jap culture, this one included.

good to see Doomfags couldn't even refute the fact that Halo is a more interesting, better game
>>
>>385135029
why waste the time? next you'll ask us to refute that 2+2 equals 5

God that picture is disgusting. I want to go back.

Polygon graphics were a mistake.
>>
>>385137516
The real mistake was high resolution, 16:9 in particular for video games. Most games don't even make good use of the wider screen.

You forgot to add "for the worst"
