Was 1998-2005 the greatest era in video games?
5th and 6th gen were pretty amazing, last gens to focus more on gaming.
Yes
Hipsters were too young, good games coming out, Internet was great and not Politically Correct (marxism)

Sixth gen was top-tier.

I'm 80% of the time on internet since 2002
1995-1999 and there was a very brief period in the mid 2000s when ps2 was cranking out amazing games.

1971-1982
>>330714723
1996-mid 2002
Also Metroid Prime was the first in the long line of Nintendo franchises being turned to shit
>>330714723
>1998-2005
Why those years? That makes no sense.
>>330719746
Because I was born in the mid 90's so I was just growing up at that time.
When normies get sick of buying online games, good games can finally rise again.
>>330714723
That's the Era where the cost of development was low enough for creative studios to produce new game ideas that were up to par. After that Gen, AAA games cost too much for developers to want to take risks. That's why games are so shitty now. Nobody takes risks.
>>330714723
I don't know if those are the exact years I would use, but if we're talking those two gens, yes. Creativity was at an all time high with the advent of 3D games and studios were still investing in more niche/complex titles. The 'cinematic" trend hadn't taken over completely and microtransation was not a concept yet.

kill yourself
Gamecube and PS2 are my favourite consoles.
>>330714852
are we really affiliating "poltically correct" with "marxism" now?
what the fuck.
>>330714723
There were a lot of great games. Haloid ain't one of them.
In my opinion, yes.
>I will never play Metroid Prime 2 for the first time again
I know it was 2004, but still...I just want to go back or at least stop going forward
>>330714723
it sure was
