I didn't any this year, really. I played two hours of the demo of Left 4 Dead, but I can't think of too much else.

What say you?

From the ones I played, I'd say Farcry 2. Sure, it had its share of problems, but if you make multiple saves, the singleplayer is OUTSTANDING. The multiplayer on the other hand, could of been a little more fun.

Left 4 Dead..one of the few games I've purchased this year that I haven't been disappointed with. Been playing a couple hours of Versus every day.

Resiatance 2. Very good fun. Took a while for it to grow on me, but when it did, it was hard to put down. It's the only console game I have played online without disconnecting in the space of 20 minutes due to a dodgy wireless adapter.

Left4Dead wooohoooo!!!:

I played the demo on the 360 and felt it was just "ok". But I had store credit my at Gamestop and figured why not take a chance and buy it. I got it home and fell head over heels for it, very addictive. Its good to have a game that actually utilizes the features of XBL as the core gameplay and not a tacked on afterthought. Left4Deads plays like any good zombie flix, no need for a extensive plot, just get the hell out of dodge away from the horde!

I havent been this happy with a multiplayer game since the original Unreal Tournament on the PC.

Game On...

Too bad TF2 was released last year, because I was still playing that a damn lot this year. What a damn load of fun this game is! This year, I would have to say Resistance 2. The campaign has a lot of great moments, coop gameplay is awesome (although it bothers me that the group gets disbanded after each completed objective) and the 60-player skirmishes are awesome. They've done many things really well with this title, and I was pleasantly surprised to see just how good this game is compared to part one.

L4D even though I've only played the demo. CoD WAW Beta was pretty good as well. The only game I actually plaeyd on that list is Resistance 2. So I would put that third. The others I have had no play with what so ever so I'll leave it at these 3.

Too bad its not a Shooter, its an RPG with shooter elements.

This is opposite of something like STALKER, which is a shooter with RPG elemtns

Well, I would say Fallout 3 is kind of half and half as opposed to being elements of anything. So much of the game revovles around combat with ranged weapons, and it is meant to be played in first person. Take away the free roaming (Which is part of shooters now anyway.), and the ability to switch out equipment and it becomes an FPS. If I could count Fallout 3 as a an FPS, I would probably go with that, though it isn't quite traditional FPS.

If one were to judge it based on its gameplay as an FPS, it is terrible. The only thing that makes Fallout 3's combat bearable is the VATS system, which itself is an RPG combat system.

Well yes, but it still feels like a shooter. VATs isn't strictly RPG, what gave you that idea? When it was turn based it was traditional RPG gameplay, but in F3 it just lets you pause the game to line up your shot, something you can do in many FPS's. Reagardless I still call it 50/50. An FPS/RPG hybrid if you ask me.
