10's > 90's > 00's > 80's

The 10's were just really solid all around - it was like a mashup of all the best ideas of the 90's and 00's combined.

I do prefer the 90's over the 00's though. The period between like 2005-2009 was just kind of a dark period for me, there weren't that many games during those years that I loved. The 90's were crazy and innovative and fun.

I love some 80's games but the decade suffers from not really hitting its stride until 1987, and also the fact that a lot of the best NES games just barely backslid into the 90's. My FAVORITE 80's games beat my FAVORITE 00's games but there's more going on in the 00's overall.

pretty much this.

The 10's has great examples of genres that didn't even really exist before it (Factorio, Kerbal Space Program, even Minecraft mod packs), creative innovations (Necrodancer), and a ton of indies doing whatever they want.

While the 00's probably have my favorite games in a few genre, a lot of the decade was nothing to me (possibly because of age), so I'd give the 90's the edge for being the decade that codified so much of what we knew of games.

80's is lol
