I think it could be argued that was a major shift in the 00sgaming becoming a non-niche hobby. By that same logic, Rock Band was a massive commercial success too.

Over the shoulder phenomenon, it captured the spirit of the "war on terror" decade, and also was easily one of the most popular games to come out of the 00s. --- "Oh, you think lag is your ally.

I'm gonna go with: Halo (It kickstarted Microsoft as a console/game developer) World of Warcraft (First MMO to 10 million active players) Counter-Strike 1.6 (Probably the first "e-sport" with massive cash prices esp. in Europe) Starcraft: Brood War (The perfectioning of the RTS genre and the first actual e-sport in Asia) The Witcher (Storytelling and characterization taken to new limits. A gamechanger among western RPGs) Tekken (To me, it's the game that made all the other fighting games step up and improve to match it) I'm not looking at release dates, but mostly at the moment that they peaked and where they had the most significance. --- The side of the fence that we climb determines who's afraid <cite>HagenEx posted [p:905458298] in What 6 gam...

For starters, SM64 was much more significant than SMW (which, at best, improved upon elements of SMB3).

Rasmoh 07/21/18 4:43:13 AM #10:	Halo GTA 3 Warcraft 3 World of Warcraft Super Smash Bros Melee Morrowind I think Halo and GTA 3 are great picks because they really did usher in a new era of gaming. I say that despite the fact that I never really cared for Halo. WoW both popularized and destroyed the MMO genre, so it definitely belongs there. I am also of the opinion that WoW is the largest contributor to gaming going from a niche nerd hobby to becoming acceptable in the mainstream. The other picks I feel are a bit more dicey. WC3 was kind of the king of RTS games in it's time and it birthed DotA, which is extremely notable. I picked Melee because I think it was the only Nintendo game that had mainstream appeal. I also don't know if it's because of where I live, but it's the only fighting game that I ever seemed to hear people talk about. Melee was instrumental in turning SSB into a system-selling series as well. Morrowind began the popularization of massive open-world RPGs. I don't know what else to say beyond that unfortunately, so perhaps that's the weakest fit. I think the common theme among 2000s games though is the shift from niche hobby to mainstream. --- Miami Dolphins \| Portland Trailblazers \| San Francisco Giants I won't say a thing, because the one who knows best is you. <cite>Rasmoh posted [p:905459812] in What 6 gam...
