  11. StarCraft: Brood War was released 25 years ago on 18th December 1998.

    This expansion came out only nine months after the main game, adding some new units and visual styles for map and delivering what was basically the second half of the campaign.

  16. Star Wars: Rogue Squadron was released 25 years ago on 3rd December 1998.

    I really first started playing any videogames with X-Wing and then Tie Fighter, and when Rogue Squadron came out, I felt disappointed that it wasn't like X-Wing. But my brother played it a lot and it was probably one of his favorite games at the time.

    Rogue Squadron ended up a quite successful and popular series in its own right.

  21. Thief: The Dark Project came out 25 years ago on 1st December 1998.

    Another game that was hugely popular with me and my friends. Though back then I never made it past the third level (the zombie tomb), and only came back to it some 15 years later. When it still was a really amazing game to play.

    Coming out the same year as Metal Gear Solid, 1998 was not just a great year for games in general, but for Stealth Games in particular.

  31. Up to this point, 1998 had been a really good year for games. But the last six weeks went on to be absolutely crazy.

  36. Half-Life was released 25 years ago on 19th November 1998.

    When this game came out, it was an immediate sensation and soon after taking the top spot in rankings of the greatest videogames of all time. In hindsight, it very much seems to have earned that reputation. Though Unreal had come out some months earlier, it's probably Half-Life that deserves the recognition as having revolutionized shooters more than any other game since Quake.
