Best single-player experience this gen?

For me it's Metal Gear Solid 4, so many memorable moments just in one play-through

Followed closely by Heavy Rain...

Mass Effect 2SaltyMeatballs

It's between Crysis, Uncharted 2 and Gears of War for me.

followed closely by Uncharted 2. But Uncharted 2 is still the better game.

Metal Gear Solid 4. Anyone who's played it knows what an amazing experience it is. Seeing the Solid Snake saga end after 20 years of storytelling was something spectacular.

Red Dead Redemption

GTAIV: TLaTD & TBoGT

and

Mega Man 9

Super Mario Galaxy 2is an experience that I'll take to my grave

Metal Gear Solid 4. Anyone who's played it knows what an amazingly plot device-littered experience it is. Seeing the Solid Snake saga end after 20 years of so-so storytelling was something spectacularly disappointing.

Prince of Persia [2008], Mirror's Edge, Cursed Mountain, Condemned: Criminal Origins, Okami, Odin Sphere, Portal, STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl and Dead Rising.

Tentative: Fallout: New Vegas (not finished), Super Mario Galaxy 2 (not bought) and The Darkness (barely started).

All you did was break his post :(

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune. THAT game got me into this gen.

Oh yeah, and The Last Guardian. That's going to be numba' uno soon.

Hmm... GTA IV, SMG, and DAO come to mind.

MGS4 and Uncharted 2

Hopefully Skyward Sword, Uncharted 3 and more will add to or top that list :).

Nothing comes close to this IMO.

Best ending ever, very emotional. BB comes up with some really memorable lines.metalgear-solid

MGS4 or Vanquish.

Since I only play single-player games I can't name just one so:

Uncharted 1&2, ME1&2, Bioshock 1&2, HL2:E1&2, Portal, The Darkness, NG2, Bayonetta and Dead Space are a few that stuck out for me.

Mass Effect or Oblivion for me, MP trilogy was great too but 2/3 of it were last gen games so... :?.

haha I have edited this list 3 times

I can't pick one. These were my top 10 in no order:

Super Mario Galaxy 1 & 2

Fable II

Oblivion

Heavy Rain

Batman Arkham Asylum

MLB '09 or '10 the Show

Crackdown

Pac-Man C.E. DX

Uncharted 2

Edit: Keep forgetting certain games lol

[QUOTE="SaltyMeatballs"]Mass Effect 2Ravensmash

SMG, SMG2, Portal, HL2 Episode 2, STALKER: SOC, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, Braid and Company of Heroes.

Mass Effect 2

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots no question, followed by Uncharted 2: Among Thieves.

Mass Effect 2 was terrible. The story made no sense, it was all a big mess.
See, I can do this too.

Amnesia: The Dark Decent.

there's opinions, and then there's just being a fanboy for the sake of it

in addition; u mad?

I would like to say MGS4 because up until May of this year it was definitely the front runner for my favourite current gen experience beating out tough competition from Batman, GOW3 and Uncharted 2. But unfortunately the most unlikely of game beat it out to reach the top spot, yeah I am talking about DEMON'S SOULS. Oh man this game does not mess about, it's very easy to hate on but play long enough and you begin to see why it's such a rewarding and addictive experience. Hats off to From Software and Sony for creating a title that brilliantly recreates that feeling of playing 8bit/16bit titles realised in a 3D world in the current gen.Swift_Boss_A

You sir have have amazing taste. Demon's Souls and MGS4 FTW! The only reason I didn't mention Demon's Souls is because it's not quite as good when you're playing offline. Online it's nothing short of godly.

Yakuza 3

Metal Gear Solid 4, Uncharted 2 and Mass Effect 2. Oblivion should also get a mention.
