You could throw a dart blindfolded in 1998 and hit a new legendary game every time. (media.piefed.world)

My favorite part about 2007 for video games was how close it was to 2008, the actual best year in gaming.

That's when indie games started getting a foothold on consoles, including Braid and Castle Crashers. Plus Rock Band 2, Guitar Hero: World Tour, and the Wii hitting its stride with Wii Fit, Mario Kart, and a Smash Bros. Not to mention mainstream fare like CoD: World at War, MGS 4, and GTA 4.
