Lost Odyssey. Until expedition 33 (which if you’re in this community, it hits right every we are age wise) it was the most intense story I’d ever played in a game

Skyrim, my favorite game of all time. Then Mass Effect 2, possibly my second favorite game of all time.

Overall, the PS3 generation had FAR more really good games per year than any other generation to this point. Combine that with the massive leaps in graphics, character control, and just the massive amount of stuff that games were then able to do that they had never done before, and its hugely important. I consider it to be the dividing line between the "old world" of games and the current one.

Along with those I mentioned, we have a whole bunch of Assassins Creed games, the Uncharted series, Dragon Age Origins and 2, The Little Big Planet series, the best Gran Turismo games, and a whole lot of great Lego games. Plus numerous one offs.

I had a 360, but I feel like this was when 3D games finally started to look and feel good. PS1/PS2/N64/Xbox/Dreamcast all had some great games, but there was almost always a level of jankiness to games in 3D.

The Mass Effect games, Skyrim, God of War, and others from the 7th gen are among my favorite of all time.

Was fully PC at this point, but S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl was by far the most memorable for me. It had plenty of jank and issues, but so did the Bethesda games. But the atmosphere and emergent gameplay and overall story and setting was mind blowing.

Wikipedia says:

The seventh generation of home video game consoles began on November 22, 2005, with the release of Microsoft's Xbox 360 home console. This was followed by the release of Sony's PlayStation 3 on November 17, 2006, and Nintendo's Wii on November 19, 2006.

I'm a PC gamer, so I don't have distinct eras as such.

Let's see..... my personal highlights:

2004

half-life 2
san andreas
doom 3
counter-strike

2005

half-life 2 deathmatch
doom 3 expansion
the movies

2006

half-life 2 episode 1
hitman blood money

2007

team fortress 2

portal
bioshock

Morrowind a whole lot when I was younger. Recently played Oblivion into the ground for a few months. Life wasn't going so well at the time, but that actually helped. Blackops zombies was a favorite for a while. I remember when it was just the one zombie map, no perks. That one freaked me out
