1980-1989... For me "1982" had the most amount of games I liked from this decade.
I listed roughly around 150 titles between 1980-1989 that I enjoy playing. I probably missed a bunch, some I missed on purpose... Some of the most popular games I don't particularly even care for. Any ways, this list is solely based on my personal picks between "1980-1989" which I thought were the best titles from those years. Apparently for me "1982" seemed to have the most amount of games that I liked in this decade. What's your favorite year that had the most games you enjoyed from this decade ?
