HL2 <--- slow start, nerdy hero and over-clothed lead chick but from then on an unbelievable experience
Lord of The Rings: TBfME <--- epic music

Just me or that the games between 2000-2005 can't compare to the ones between 1995-1999? Ofc there are many good games released in these years, but I feel the late nineties had way more classics people remember.

1995-1999, whatever they released was fresh and new. Heck, even 3d acceleration was a new-fangled thing!
