Wow 2009 went quickly and it was a fine year for gaming, in 2008 there were a few awesome games but 2009, wow, the lineup has been awesome and quite well spread over the year. We were treated to delights such as Killzone 2 and Street Fighter and Resident Evil 5 at the start and a whole bunch of great releases at the end. It has been a surprising year in many ways, who would have thought that the two games that we would have predicted would have been the top games of the year- the next installment in the Halo series and the Resident Evil series- would actually have been largely forgotten by many people and underwhelmed many more (I really enjoyed both however).

So all I need to do now is put together a detailed list of the 10 best games I played this year, the people on here that know me should have a few ideas of what will be on there but I hope to provide some surprises. So let's have a little bit of fun, anybody who wants to can make a little prediciton of what games they think I will include and the person who either gets the most correct games featured or the most games in the right positions will win a reward of being named stephenage's top predicter of 2009! A prestigious achievement indeed.

The list itself should be up shortly, I know it's 2010 already but I still have to complete two more games, Clock Blockers and Dragon Age. As soon as they are done then the top 10 will be up and you can all tell me why am I wrong :D.
