The thread title is clear - PC games only. And only those that have single player options. So, no multiplayer-only games.
Vote and elaborate, lets hear what you have to say! We can make quite a discussion (just remember the last year)...
NOTE: You can vote for more than one game!

I voted for far cry , mainly as i havent played some of them , and also as half life 2 would be clear winner , but steam pissed me off , so it gets 35% deducted straight away  doom 3 also was a contender but running around in the dark getting ripped by things i cant see wasnt all that much fun I havent played total war yet ill bet thats good far cry kept me hooked , had good graphics and was fun to play so its my winner |

So, no multiplayer-only games.  WoW has so many Quest it can be played as a Single player game. They designed it so you could single player all the way to level 60. Which is what I intend to do.... but I understand. Hmmm very tough.. i would like to vote for Half Life 2 but that would be bad because I havnt played it yet... I may have to turn to the Dark side and vote for Warriors Within because it really is the best game I can see up their. :/ |

Awww Bash!! Where's Call of Duty, United Offense??! Don't tell me no expansions! Waiting with my votes to see your, and perhaps others reaction, but they will probably be HL2, V:Bloodlines and Codename: Panzers. Far Cry was pretty cool too, but only played the demo of it yet, lol, so no. There are a few other notables, but I'll save that for later.. |

The best of this list, is most definetely Half Life 2. It was everything I expected, wanted, and more. Best FPS in years, maybe the best I've ever played. Go Half Life 2.
Next is Pirates!, for it's great replayability. Prince of Persia comes in third.
-
But what I consider the best game of 2004, isn't on this list. A game I only played once, and can't play again, just because it's so damn good. The game was just SO DAMN GOOD, that I had to delete it.
Silent Hill 4. I completely shat my pants playing that game, and I'll never touch it again. There were times that I jumped away from my computer and threw the headphones in the corner of my room. I just couldn't play with the lights out anymore. Just too damn freaky. Although Silent Hill 2 still is better gameplay-wise, Silent Hill 4 just completely knocks it down with its disturbing imagery, intense atmosphere, and creepy sounds.
It was the best game this year, and I advise you to steer clear from it, if you value your sanity.

I voted for Doom 3 because I haven't played many of the others. Doom 3 sure was great and scary in a very good way.

No, no expansions  I agree that United Offensive was great, but come on - it would be a shame to have an expansion as the game of the year! Silent Hill 4... Now that's a game that got various reviews. Some loved it, some hated it. I see that Metacritic has an average score of 75 for it. Not bad, maybe even good enough for the award... Nah, I'll leave the list as it is |

Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines, Half-Life 2, Pirates and Far Cry.
My fave of those though has got to be Far Cry. It really gave me a Dr. Moreau feeling. One of the first games I've played where I really loved the transition from normal human enemy to mutant/alien/whatever enemy.
Pirates is mostly because it recaptured the spirit of the old games and the general Aaarrr feeling.
HL2 has great gameplay but I don't think that it's the best FPS ever. But still one of the best straight FPS' to come out in the last couple of years.
Finally I've got Bloodlines, which I enjoyed, more or less a Vampire version of Deus Ex. Not quite as good as it's forerunner, and I had some wish that it would include you more in the politics of vampires instead of just being a pawn. Nonetheless it's a solid game if you ignore the graphics glitches and one nasty game-crashing bug, that fortunately can be avoided.

MR, why don't you come over some time so I can show you the Real Vampire: The Masquerade Or Vampire the Requiem might be more interesting. Other than that, Codename Panzers is clearly this years best RTS. No, not Rome, hehe. |

Guess why I placed it on the list, much a surprise for the most  I still haven't voted. I know one thing - Half Life 2, no matter how great it is (and it is GREAT) will not get my vote. Fuc*BEEP* Steam... |

I'll vote for my top 3 of this year. Although I think I only got about 5 new games in 2004, which considering how I used to blow fortunes on them before is pretty sad :/ Anyway... Sid Meier's Pirates!
- Half-Life 2
- The Sims 2
I won't vote for games I haven't played, else Rome might have been up there instead of Sims. I'll have to get hold of that next year. |
