    Re: Game of the Year

    Assassins Creed 2 was just too good, in my opinion. Ending was strange, though.

    Re: Game of the Year

    I have to go with AC2...though COD and Borderlands were both really, really close.

    On a sidenote - this was a pretty weak year for gaming, I think.

    UFC Undisputed was a pretty good game...but the control scheme was almost too complex.

    I must admit I haven't played any of the games generally thought to be in the top-12 or 15.

    Re: Game of the Year

    I'll tell you one game that isn't--Bayonnetta.

    That game is a Devil May Cry for kids with severe AD-HD. I felt sick after playing it.

    Re: Game of the Year

    I don't own a PS3 and I like Uncharted 2 more than the other games.. I feel like this year lacked good competition. Everything was at its own level, imo. Hopefully next year will be awesome. Oh wait, we get Mass Effect 2, and Halo:Reach Beta, so it will be awesome.

    Re: Game of the Year

    See, this is how fail the gaming market is now. Most of the big games to look forward to are sequels, or a known series. Lets get something original...

    The consumers are to blame also.

    I loved Batman, sorry, granted I love Uncharted 2 as well.

    I played all of those except Dragon Age and Mario on Wii.

    Re: Game of the Year

    Thing is though, guys, PS3 is just going to win next year again. Heavy Rain, Agent (which is actually being created by the people who made GTA), Gran Turismo 5, and of course, how can anyone forget God of War III.

    :notworthy:

    And yeah, Uncharted shat on everyone this year.

    Re: Game of the Year

    What difference does it make what system the game is for? The poll isn't 'Xbox or PS3?'.



    Another game I left off the list is Demon Souls which got pretty good reviews and people seemed to like it.
