Conclusion
When all is said and done, both 2018 and 2019 are responsible for some of the best video games in recent memory.
With that said, due to just how many distinct and impactful games that released during its time, the winner of this gaming head to head belongs to 2018.
While the innovation of games like Death Stranding is indeed impressive, 2019 doesn’t have the same variety in comparison to 2018, especially when you consider just about every genre had multiple acclaimed releases each.
