It's a very major oversight. When players recall the OFP, the campaign mission where you are the last guy in your platoon and have to make your way to the evac somewhere north of Moreton on Everon is almost always brought up. It is a fantastic mission but it's not my favouite but it is one of many fine missions in the campaign. However there are many people who didn't play OFP for the single player campaign and played it for mods and multiplayer. Within the limits of technology 20 years ago, this game did so much right and for anyone who had a PC to run it (32mb of RAM and a Hardware T&L video card) had so much entertainment to extract from it. It's successors may not have offered the same sort of out of the box value but their mods which lead to things like PUB:G and DayZ are noteworthy too. My point is we can crunch numbers all we like on what is the best game but a game like OPF transcends numbers. It might have dodgy voice acting, mission triggers that occasionally fail or an insufferable community; but that doesn't matter to what sort of product it is or what the community created from it. One of my most difficult decisions in life was deciding whether I should buy Deus Ex: GOTY Edition or OFP Gold Edition at my local Harvey Norman with my limited income.

Logically, the greatest year in games will be far off in the future, right before the total collapse of the New Steam World Order, where babies will be fed a steady in-vitro drip of Final Fantasy LXIX and Futa Mars Colony Diner Dash, before being hooked up to the entirety of the Valve Index Supernet (made with Meta™) catalogue at birth.

I'm tabulating! The tabulation is nearly complete! Results tomorrow! We'll be doing a countdown of the top 10 best years in gaming so far, as decided in an official, real, and binding fashion by Something Awful Video Games forum posters.

A bit of trivia to perhaps spark some discussion: here is the list of years that received zero votes. The earliest year to receive any votes as 1982, so I'm listing any years between 1982 and 2022 that nobody voted for at all. They are: 1983 1984 1987 1988 1990 1991 2006 2009 2014 2015 2020

That is interesting for sure. 2015 had a good few fan favs too. On the 80s, the late 80s and early 90s ruled as we all know, NES classics all over the place etc. Mega Man going ham. Though Mega Man 2's US date is represented, via 89 getting voted in.

Of the missing years, from my own personal spreadsheet: 1990 had Secret of Monkey Island, Sim City, Loom and Star Control 1991 had Commander Keen in Goodbye, Galaxy, Populous 2, Lemmings, Monkey Island 2, Duke Nukem and Micro Machines 2006 is blank in my spreadsheet 2009 had Dragon Age: Origins, The Beatles: Rock Band and Uncharted 2 2014 had Dragon Age Inquisition 2015 had Pillars of Eternity 2020 had Monster Train and Hades By my own personal metrics, 91 followed by 90 are the most unlucky to miss out on a single vote.

wild that 2015 got no votes, it's one of the best years ever but maybe just low enough like unanimous 4th so that it doesn't rate at all
