    I could think of about a billion PC specific games that are more worthy of a retrospective than this.

    Resident Evil 4 remains in my top 3 best games ever made. Simply an amazing game.

    So tell us :) For me, 2005 on PC was alllll about F.E.A.R.

    In fact, thinking about it is really making me want to reinstall it..

    Oh yes, F.E.A.R. played through that a few times just because the story is so screwed up in a horrific way. Still an excellent game, plays real well on modern hardware :) Heck, you only need a 9600 GT or better to play with maxed settings and I think it still looks pretty good for how old it is.

    As for RE4, wow, can't believe this game has been on my "would like to play some day" list for 10 years already.

    I'd like to see RE4 re-worked to include co-op, RE5 style. 5 isn't as good a game, but the co-op made it for me.

    Scary thought, this year will see the tenth anniversary of the following titles.
    Battlefield 2
    FEAR
    Destroy All Humans!
    Psychonauts
    Gun
    Devil May Cry 3
    Republic Commando
    Jade Empire
    Killer 7
    God of War
    Gran Turismo 4
    Call of Duty 2

    All things considered, 2005 was a pretty good year, although GT4 and BF2 were the ones I sank multiple hundreds of hours into.

    Also, Portal, Call of Duty 4.

    It'll soon be a decade since the last part of Half Life 2 came out, I think Valve are out to break the nine year studio record they set with Team Fortress 2 (Liverpool 1).
