Please explain in a reply.

This is not a Game review it needs to be a least 100 words . Also the best era of games is 2010 - present .

supercool22 : Instead of just telling him it's not a review, summon the locals.
Local Mods :

mrfe : I actually don't know how to summon the local mods  .

pigboy : Please review the community guidelines and follow accordingly. Now in regard to the question, tough call. The technology around today is in many ways better but lacks in some areas particularly the reliability and durability when it comes to consoles. If we’re talking just games I am a nostalgia nut so I’ll go with the 80’s but I think the technology of games is better now of days.

supercool22 : Wait, I didn't know this was supposed to be a review. I just clicked "make new poll" and thought that was all there was to it.

Will be moving this to the Video game section since this is not a game review in accordance with the community guidelines.

pigboy : You were in the wrong forum when you clicked "make new poll". Just a simple mistake, don't lose sleep over it.

pigboy : It's okay just keep it in mind in the future I'll fix it now.

Local Mods : For some reason I can't move this one on my own can someone help me out and move this to Video games? Thanks

Okay guys this thread is fixed now. I apologize for the multiple posts I just wanted to make sure this was taken care of. Thanks to the Mods of Game Reviews I appreciate the help.

pigboy : If you ever need any help or have questions about threads just ask.

Present, just due to the new more advanced systems and games.

Tough question. It's a toss up for me between the 80's and the 90's both eras made huge jumps in what they did with games/consoles. Everything back then was new and exciting. Things these days are just stale to me. Sure great graphics, but how many huge advancements are they really making now that weren't being invented in the 90s?

Either way it's a good conversational topic

The 16 bit era was the best. The competition between Sega and Nintendo was tight, but that wasn't all. There was a whole slew of crappy consoles released during this time, consoles that had better graphics but super crappy games. 3DO, Atari Jaguar, Philips CDI. Are just a few of them. There were quite a bit of leaps in technology. 

I have to say that my faverite era has to be in the 1990's, the reason, you got the SNES and Genesis console wars, you got the short Virtual Boy reign, you got the debut of modern consoles came out like the PS1 and N64, and a lot other stuff.

1996 - 2001

my reasons:

wild arms
final fantasy 7
final fantasy 9
breath of fire 4
azure dreams
dragon monsters
grandia
pokemon red, blue and yellow
harvest moon back to nature

just a few reasons but im sure there is many many more. I think games seem to go down hill after 2001, dont get me wrong there are some good titles that have been released since. But as the title of this thread indicates in my opinion this was the best era ^^^^^^^.  

I like present and 1990- 1999. Both have amazing games i like to play. 

That's honestly fairly easy for me. The 90s, and the 2000's. They both equally tie for me though. I feel the current generation is the absolute worse.

I think the best era of video games is from 1980-2000 because that is when all of my favorite games like mario, Pokémon and sonic and all of those games came out, and lets not forget the fun classics like pac man and galaga and all of those other arcade games came out and became popular during that period. Plus thee were huge advances with the consoles and the whole gaming experience in that time frame. I think those are when some of the games came from. Of course there are some great Pokémon games and mario bros games for wii u and 3ds which are pretty good, but aside from that all the games now are about zombies, killing and war and I just think those kind of games are a little overrated, and I think games are just getting worse and less creative except fir the good mario and Pokémon ones which even still is getting less creative with some of the weird Pokémon but nevertheless they have left me with lots of video games to play.
