This isn't a comprehensive list, but just what I could pull from the magazines I currently have and archives I can find online. If there is anything you think should be added or is missing, post below! What was your favorite gaming memory during these times?

What a thread

It has finally been starting to get to me about no E3. By 2015, we had already been telling ourselves every year that Sony's next year would be stacked, and I was starting to question whether we would ever get the games. This was the turning point.

It's weird looking back on that bizarre Kinect and Move E3. I definitely prefer just getting uograded consoles to generate enthusiasm mid console cycle now.

It's weird looking back on that bizarre Kinect and Move E3. I definitely prefer just getting uograded consoles to generate enthusiasm mid console cycle now.

That era was a massive turning point for gaming as a whole. The Wii introduced and brought back a lot of people into gaming via its casual pick up and play nature. Kinect and Move all were attempts to capture that market as well, though over the next few years many developers and publishers would move to the mobile market. Almost all of which would end in failure for major publishers. Just looking at what Microsoft did to Rare during this time is painful to see.

Awesome
Definitely great work

Thanks. Speaking with a few gaming preservation groups to get even more info for future posts. I think it is important to look back at what gaming was to appreciate what we have now, and what we could/should have with future games.

Deus Ex, Diablo II, Earthbound - many games that are still considered to be amazing even compared to many modern games.

I completely agree.
A very interesting generation.
And the work you're doing here is really great.
Keep it up.

Would love to just embed that directly but it's not on giphy and I'm too lazy to create an account.

Thanks for this thread OP, some great memories here. Diablo 2 and Earthbound are some of my all time favorite games, hard to believe they both dropped in June, one of the "dead" months.
