If this type of thread has been made already, then Mods, delete this because I don't see any at the moment.

Anyways, I would, and some others mabye, would like to know what and why your favorite game of 2008 is/was. Just type the name of the game, your personal rating, and why it was your favorite game of 2008 was.

My favorite game of 2008 is Mirror's Edge, I personally give it a 9.0 out because the gameplay is different from most FPS games and is one of the hardest games of the year to beat. Faith is the coolest badass new video game character to me because underneath her cold additude to most people (Blues) she still has enough heart to defend her family and friends.

That's all I'm writing for right now because I just found out Fox is filing a duit to delay Watchmen indefinetly.

Left 4 Dead fun factor is phenominal, and can't get enough of it. Probably going to be the best Zombie game ever!

Dead Space or NHL09 for me, but I just got my PS3 at the beginning of December and didnt play my PS2 much before getting it. Im currently at the end of Act 2 of MGS4 so its too early for me to say its GOTY for me, though I think it would be.

Fallout 3 with Mirrors Edge and Rock Band 2 tied for second place. There were a lot of great games overall though.

Same [spoiler] The part where you crawl through the microwave oven and the epic battles are going on in the top screen made an impact on me [/spoiler]

Left 4 Dead was a huge surprise for me with countless hours playing through the campaigns over and over.

I just played Fallout 3 and along with MGS4 are tied for second.

Dead Space and Devil May Cry 4. I have yet to try MGS4, mostly because I have never played the previous games..

I can't pick just one, but these are all up there for me:

Fallout 3

Super Smash Bros Brawl

Left 4 Dead

other than those, I didn't really buy many games this year.

Gears of War 2. Amazing graphics, superb sound, a total blast to play, and Horde mode was a very cool addition. Honorable mentions to Ninja Gaiden 2 and Dead Space.

I don't have a final answer yet since I haven't played MGS4 or Dead Space, but so far I would say World of Goo, then Little Big Planet, then Gears 2 and maybe Persona 4.

Im having a stupid ammount of fun with Fallout3, I only got it for xmas though and haven't had that much time with it yet so too early to say that.

I would probably say GTA4, but its been a very good year 8).

Easily MGS4. Best game in years.
