It’s an epic adventure to a bygone era when the seemingly infinite possibilities of creating an online world inspired an intrepid group of developers to go for broke with an MMORPG. It’s tempting to dismiss World of Warcraft Classic as a nostalgia trip, but it’s not quite that. There’s nothing quite like this game, and we doubt there ever will be. The twist is that you also have access to a mystical stopwatch that allows you to turn back time and view the crew’s final moments.Ī puzzle game unlike any other, Return of the Obra Dinn demands that you clear some serious chronological confusion while unraveling stories both personal and epic. Here’s the pitch: you’re an insurance investigator who must examine a recently returned ship known as the Obra Dinn to figure out what happened to the vanished souls that once inhabited it (and how much the whole thing is going to cost your company). Even after you learn the game’s tricks, it can take a lot of convincing to get you to dive into Amnesia’s haunted halls. This title stands alone as a testament to the power of horror in gaming and proof that atmosphere is one of those sometimes intangible things that video games uniquely excel at over other mediums. With its first-person perspective, claustrophobic environments, and the complete defenselessness of its protagonist, Amnesia: The Dark Descent helped set the standard for horror gaming this decade. Chosen through a voting process by our Games staff as well as a few of our esteemed colleagues in the industry, Den of Geek brings you the 100 best video games of the decade: We’ve looked at the last decade and chosen an eclectic list of titles that defined this decade and will perhaps inspire the next. Time will tell how gaming will change in the next 10 years, but before we get there, it’s time to take one last look back at all of the games that brought us joy and/or introduced new ideas to the medium. And with Xbox Game Pass and PlayStation Now making a major push in on-demand gaming, will the next decade ring in a new, all-digital status quo for the industry?

What future will the 2020s bring? For one thing, we know that the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X are coming next year, while cloud gaming services like Google Stadia will continue to challenge the notion that we need a box at all to enjoy the best games. In the years between, we’ve also seen the rise of live services, cloud gaming, on-demand streaming, home-handheld console hybrids, and excellent experiences on our mobile devices. In 2010, we were impatiently waiting for DLC expansions, and now we bow to the almighty battle pass. The PC remains a constant in our lives, but we’ll soon be saying goodbye to the era of the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. We kicked off the 2010s with the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Wii, and we’re ending the decade at the twilight of another generation of platforms.
