1998 is up there too.
I mean you've got Ocarina of Time, Baldur's Gate 1, Half Life, Banjo Kazooie, Final Fantasy VII, Resident Evil 2, Panzer Dragoon Saga, Sonic Adventure, Pokemon Red and Blue (in the US, Yellow dropped that year in Japan), Goldeneye 007, Metal Gear Solid, Spyro The Dragon, Starcraft, the first Thief game, Xenogears, Unreal (as in Unreal Engine), Crash Bandicoot 3, Gran Turismo 1 (in North America and the EU), Tekken 3, Beatmania, Marvel Vs. Capcom...
Suffice it to say that a lot of wildly important game franchises started that year, and several older ones were reborn in 3D for the first time.
For something more recent I think 2011 is a solid candidate. Skyrim, Minecraft, dark souls, portal 2
Also correct
1998 is the correct answer
