Which game, released this year, was your favorite?

I'll start:

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

(Rules: Absolutely no flaming, game must have a 2008 release date).

Discuss!

(I edited my comment about 2007 being a better year than 2008 since it was my opinion but it seemed like I was stating it as a fact).

I thought the title meant "which title that Gamespot gave the Game of the Year award to was your favorite?" :lol: (the correct response for me, BTW, is Total Annihilation). The best game I've played this year, though, was The Witcher Enhanced Edition :)

Even though 2008 was nowhere as good of a year for gaming as 2007 was there were still a few great games.

Which game, released this year, was your favorite?

I'll start:

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

(Rules: Absolutely no flaming, game must have a 2008 release date).

Left 4 Dead at the moment. But I gotta say Fallout 3 has left a strong impression on me so far.

So far, probably Gears of War 2. Which is surprising, because the first Gears really didn't leave a lasting impression on me...Gears of War 2 really has an excellent campaign. Extremely well paced and almost always thrilling.

To be fair though, I haven't really gotten around to playing all the big releases this year. Honestly I have been playing Team Fortress 2 more than anything else :P

Brawl! It ran so much better than SSB and SSBM, and let's not forget Snake and Sonic are in there.

First of all, I'd have to say 2007 was a better year for releases for me... \ But my favourite games this year are Far Cry 2 & Resistance 2.

MGS4 so far.

Dead Space comes in a distant , but still respectable second place.

Left 4 Dead..

..Lost Odyssey..

That's about it. Lots of disappointments this year (still haven't played Tales of Vesperia though, and I'm also looking forward to Persona 4.)

Mirror's Edge. The most refreshing and surprisingly good game I have played in a long time.

Favorite RELEASED game of the year that I own - MGS4. Followed by LBP.

Favorite BETA I've played this year: Killzone 2, easily. Followed by Resistance 2 (I don't own it .. yet)

PS3 Game: MGS4
360 Game: Fable II
PC Game: uhh, I dunno. haven't played too many games on my PC lately. But i guess WoW is a pretty safe bet, even if it wasn't "RELEASED" in 2008. hehe. new content every month practically! (Stopped playing in March I think.. Still having withdrawls). And even though it's not a PC exclusive, PORTAL was/is amazing!
Multiplat Game: The best multiplat I own is GTAIV. But that was also the last multiplat I purchased, and that was back when it came out. hehe.

Games I look forward to playing from 2008, *probably* in 2009?
Resistance 2
Fallout 3
Valkyria Chronicles

I'm also semi-interested in Bioshock, and would pick it up for $20 used :D :P

There were a lot of good games I enjoyed playing this year.

Out of the games I played my vote goes to Gears of War 2 and runner up goes to Fallout 3.

So far it has to be SIREN: Blood Curse, but im getting GTi Club+ and Prince of Persia within the next week and I think they both have good chances of beating SIREN.

I gotta say Little Big Planet is this years GOTY. But it could have been Mirror's Edge if it hadn't fallen a bit short of my expectations.

We all know who youll be pushing for GOTY:P I think its really sad that MGS4 has stolen the show, i mean dont get me wrong, its a fantastic game, but FAR FAR FAR from a 10, a nice 9.5 at least. GTAIV is a much bigger and fully fleshed out game hence you can see it getting a 10. Oh well, i really hope that the likes of the 9.0 games have a good chance this year, RFOM2 being again a really fleshed out package that got docked fairly for being a little generic, but still got awarded for doing everything right

Even though its not out yet, Prince of Persia has been my most anticipated titled for 2008 and I think it'll be my favourite. As of now, my favourite game of 2008 that has been released is Gears of War 2

Currently MGS 4 and Gears 2 but I'm yet to play LPG, CoD 5, Left 4 Dead and Resistance 2 all of which could take the title

Not a 2008 game but I only got my PS3 this year and Uncharted is a great game

For me it has to be GTA IV because I simply love the changes the developer made to the game and made it more enjoyable for me. Stuff like car physics, cover system, and other minor changes made it awesome for me. I know many people will disagree with me but it just my opinion. Other games that I found enjoyable are Dead Space and Soul Calibur IV.

Was a hard decision to make but I'm probably gonna have to go with MGS4 (L4D and Advance Wars DoR made it a hard choice).
