    No one said that in 2007.

    Halo 3, Assassin’s Creed, The Orange Box (Team Fortress 2, Half-Life 2 Episode 2, Portal), Mass Effect, CoD4:MW, Uncharted, Mario Galaxy, BioShock, Crackdown, The Witcher, Crysis, God of War 2, Metroid Prime 3…

    That year was historic.

    (But I realize this ruins the joke.)

      2007 was about as good as it ever got anyone who says otherwise wasn’t there. COD4 having perks was revolutionary for console shooters, TF2 is still played on PC, Mass Effect is dope as hell, and Halo 3 was the last good Halo game. Until I guess reach idk shooters preference.

      From all the years listed, 2007 is the only one that I would agree was weak, for my taste in games.

      And 2013 was peak. It’s absolutely the year I spent more time playing new games, with a monthly average way past 200 hours (300+ by the final quarter).

      This if you had hardware and decent internet back then. Otherwise it’s cs 1.6 from 2000.

      Also in 2007 many were too hooked on MMOs to notice anything else really.
