Poll of the Day > Now that 2020 is over, what are your top 10 games of the last decade?

(+) Yeah! (+)

* Released 2010-2020

Look, I don't want to get into the "Is the decade 2010-2019 or 2011-2020" debate, but it sure as hell isn't 2010-2020. That's 11 years

BotW was my favorite of that period by far anyways but I don't want to have to think of nine more

1) DOOM
2) Borderlands 2
3) Shadow Warrior 2
4) TES V: Skyrim
5) GTA V
6) Far Cry 3
7) Far Cry 5
8) Far Cry Primal
9) Borderlands: Pre-Sequel
10) Mortal Kombat 11

bloodborne

---

idk... it's such a haze. If I go by play time then it'd be Grim Dawn by a fair long shot

---

in no particular order

Destiny
Destiny 2
Skyrim
Grand Theft Auto V
Metal Gear Solid V
Rocket League
Celeste
Bioshock 2
Bioshock Infinite


---

10 years is 2011-2020 or 2010-2019.
Pick one.

Xenoblade Chronicles DE (if this is 2010-2019, then...for us in the U.S. Xenoblade was 2012, so...that)
Bayonetta 2 (if this is 2010-2019, then Bayo 1 instead)
Radiant Historia Perfect Chronology
Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds
NieR Automata
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen
Hyrule Warriors DE
Xenoblade Chronicles X
Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Deception IV: The Nightmare Princess

(also damn, 4 out of 10 of my choices came out originally on Wii U, the "failed console" of this decade)

If I put more thought into it I would tweak this list die sure, but off the top of my head:

Rayman Legends
Bloodborne
SotC Remake
RDR
RDR 2
Spider-Man
Ghost of Tsushima
Unfinished Swan
What Remains of Edith Finch
God of War
A Plague Tale: Innocence
The Witness
The Talos Principle
AC Odyssey
AC Black Flag
Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice
Rime
Hob
No Man's Sky
Rocket League
Batman Arkham City
Arkham Asylum? was that post-2010?
Remember Me
Sherlock Holmes: Crimes & Punishments
Guacamelee!

I'll have to boil this list down later. I know there's more I've played that are worthy of a mention of not being in my top 10. The ones towards the top are probably safe bets for me

---

It's pretty hard for me. Every great game has some glaring flaw that makes me not want to put it number 1. I guess.

1 Xenoblade 2
2 Nioh
3 MHW
4 Sekiro
5 Dark souls 3
6 Ark
7 Hollow Knight
8 Celeste
9 Tales of Berseria
10 Bannerlord

I kept it to only 1 game per series.

---

obscene amounts of playtime:
counterstrike GO
Terraria
Minecraft
CoD WaW, Black Ops, Modern Warfare (3) on the Wii

large amounts of playtime:
BotW
Darksouls any
Bloodborne
Sekiro
Farcry 5/new dawn
Dying Light

runners up:
blaz blue cross tag battle
super smash bros any
Mario 3d world, Mario Odyssey

fun:
HaloV
Forza Horizon 3
Mario Kart

money:
gran turismo
fortnight
League of Legends
Yu-gi-oh duel links!
Any fighter game ever, jus buy everything don't even think about how much money I have left over LOL

honorable mentions:
night in the woods
undertale -> deltarune
geometry wars 3
Killer is dead

I think farcry is the best FPS i've ever played
I think Dying Light is the most immersive game I've ever played

---

capcom get's it's own category for party games, even RE is a party game at this point
sega/square enix for brawlers

last of us, destiny, mass effect, horizon, gtaV
good games but still in the same section
I think Immortal Fenyx Rising is going to stick around for awhile

3ds jus too uncomfortable to play for long periods
I have like dozens of AAA games, but having to buy an extra grip jus to play it
I feel like the GBA was more comfertable for me

for indie games
celeste, hyper light drifter & hollow knight
tho there are a lot of others I haven't played that long

---

Skyrim, Breath of the Wild, and Metal Gear Solid V are my top 3. I'm not going to try thinking of top 10.

---

I haven't played any new games from the last decade.

---

In no order:

1. Witcher 3
2. Persona 5
3. The Last of Us
4. God of War(2018)
5. Kingdom Hearts: The Story so Far
6. Batman Arkham City
7. Spider-Man
8. Final Fantasy VII: Remake
9. Dragon Quest XI
10. Devil May Cry 5

---

Breath of the Wild

Then, in no particular order

Skyrim
Three Houses
Final Fantasy XIV
Final Fantasy VII Remake
Super Mario Odyssey
Persona 5
Smash Bros Ultimate

And after that, while there are plenty of GOOD games (EX: Dragon Quest XI, Ni No Kuni 2) none that immediately jump out at me as being OMGWTFDEFININGGAME!

---

I can't come up with 10. I suppose I could just list all of the games that released in that time period that I've played - and I'd only be a few games over my list. I thought about cheating and listing NES/SNES games that released on the NES/SNES mini since I've probably played those more than any other games that have released in that time period.

Here is what I could come up with:

Octopath Traveler
Dragon Quest XI
Minecraft Dungeons
Disgaea 4
Disgaea 5
Disgaea 1 Complete
Animal Crossing

Hades
Slay the Spire
Skyrim
The Binding of Isaac Rebirth
MGSV
Kingdom Come: Deliverance
Fallout New Vegas
God of War 2018
Breath of the Wild
The Witcher 3

---

This is tricky. I liked a lot of stuff...

Ori and the Will of the Wisps
Resident Evil 2 remake
Persona 5 Royal
Mass Effect 2
Civilization V
XCOM: Enemy Within
XCOM 2: War of the Chosen
Bloodborne
NIER
Ultra Street Fighter IV

Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time
Dark Souls
Forza Horizon 3
Grand Theft Auto V
Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft
Red Dead Redemption 2
Sid Meier's Civilization V
Super Mario Galaxy 2
Terraria
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

HM: Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Dark Souls III, Forza Horizon 2 and 4, Halo: Reach, Monster Hunter: World, Portal 2, Red Dead Redemption, Shadow of the Colossus, Super Mario Odyssey

Same. I just rattled off a bunch of games but I'm looking at other people's lists like "Damn how'd I forget that game?"

---

Skyrim
Saints Row 3
Saints Row 4
Link Between Worlds

Then undecided x6

---

Is the concept of "randomizers" an acceptable answer?

---

Not in any specific order, but my top 10 for 2010-2019 would probably be:

Dark Souls
TES V: Skyrim
Persona 5
Breath of the Wild
Minecraft
Halo: Reach
Fallout: New Vegas
The Last of Us
Destiny
Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver

Not a very original list, and some of them are questionable, but I put way too many hours into Reach and Destiny not to put them on the list.

There were a ton of great games released in the last decade, so here's hoping the next decade is just as great.

Skyrim, etc.

---

Skyrim
Among Us
Dragon Quest 11
Dishonored 2
Dishonored 1
Breath of the Wild
The Last of Us
Minecraft
Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Link Between Worlds

---

this is in no specific order but TLoUII is my #1 of the decade for sure.

The Last of Us
The Last of Us Part II
Uncharted 4
Spider-Man (PS4)
Breath of the Wild
Red Dead Redemption II
Pokemon HG/SS
Animal Crossing New Horizons
Super Mario Galaxy 2
Dark Souls
