Hey guys, I just completed a new article for Source Gaming where I take a look at my favorite game of each year starting with 1980. Featuring a hand sprited picture of each game. I thought this could raise some interesting discussion here so I'd love to hear all of your favorite games from each year!

LOVE your choice from '89. I used to go to the arcade JUST to play that game when I was a kid. I'm going to try to get the full arcade cabinet and everything here in the next couple of years. I think '91 is a tossup between Turtles In Time and Street Fighter 2.

your dumbass “list”.
