2010: Halo Reach

2011: Modern Warfare 3

2012: Black Ops 2

2013: GTA V (can't believe it's been 6 years)

2014: Alien Isolation

2015: Witcher 3 Wild Hunt (of ******* course :D)

2016: Dark Souls 3

2017: RE7: Biohazard (didn't really play many games in 2017)

2018: God of War (the last great game I played on PS4)

2019: Very tricky, I love Sekiro, RE2 remake and Fallen Order but I would say Fallen Order since we haven't gotten a great Star Wars game in ages. Last one I truly enjoyed was the old Battlefront 2.

2020: Can't wait for Cyberpunk, Halo Infinite and Dying Light 2. Would love to play the 2nd Last of Us but I don't have a PS4 anymore

OVERALL (best game of the decade): Witcher 3 Wild Hunt
 
I played a mix of console and PC so I'll just include both.

2010: Fallout NV
2011: Skyrim
2012: Far Cry 3
2013: GTA V
2014: Wolfenstein: The New Order
2015: Witcher 3
2016: BF1
2017: Horizon Zero Dawn or Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
2018: God of War
2019: Can't think of any that I actually played
2020: It's obviously going to be Cyberpunk. CDPR won't let us down. :cool:
Overall: Witcher 3
 
@GreatVortex for many, some games are perpetual in my case WOT, CK2, EU4, ESO mostly. Also you are named "Great Vortex" but TWW2 missing from the 2017 on your list, hypocrite :p

2015: Elder Scrolls Online Orsinium
2016: Total War Warhammer 1 & Stelaris
2017: Total War Warhammer 2
2018: Elder Scrolls Online - Summerset & X4 Foundations
2019: Elder Scrolls Online - Elswyer & Imperator Rome

2020: Crusader Kings 3 hands down, Elder Scrolls Online - Skyrim and maybe Port Royal 4.
 
PC games simplified version:

1998-2002 Quake 2 CTF :)
2003-2006 GTA 3+
2007 TF2, ~2000 hours, I reset my stats to try and get an Uber Saw, it didn't work
2008 L4D, how many hours are in a year?
2009-20?? L4D2, I stopped playing after 2500 hours
2011 Skyrim
2012 FTL: Faster Than Light
2013 BioShock Infinite
2014 Alien: Isolation
2015 Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain - completed the game without realising I could turn into a box
2016 Devil Daggers
2017 things went $$$ I waited for 4K to be a thing..
2019 oh hi. I gave up waiting and went 1440, gaming backlog. Great flawed games around this time, either bugs or just poor frame rates etc.

Hard to do a 'best' game.

Spanning 3 decades ! bonus :)
