Super Mario Galaxy

1. Super Mario Galaxy

The best game ever made. Read my blog.

The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass

2. The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass

I enjoyed this game start to finish. The Wind Waker was probably my favorite Zelda game stylistically speaking, and this game used the DS to its fullest ability. I love that it wasn't a lazy game at all, but a hugely imaginative effort.

Halo 3

3. Halo 3

Great way to wrap up the trilogy story, and a much-needed improvement from the messed up Halo 2. Still among the most fully-featured shooters out there, which I don't understand. Why can't other series (Call of Duty included) understand that?

Mass Effect

4. Mass Effect

I didn't initially like it because of technical problems, but I discovered the best way to play it was to play to its strengths and focus on what's good - great story, amazing writing, and best of all one of the best sci-fi universes ever designed. Those BioWare dudes really know how to make great fantasy.

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

5. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

An absolutely stellar campaign with tons of great moments and incredible pacing. Oh, and that multiplayer is cool too. Kind of a watershed moment game.

Rock Band

6. Rock Band

This was a fantastic game to enjoy freshman year in college. It made for great gatherings and was the logical step up from what Harmonix established with Guitar Hero.

Portal

7. Portal

The Orange Box is a joke, as Half-Life is terrible garbage and Team Fortress 2 is only worth playing on the PC. However, Portal is super charming and inventive. It's short but very good.

Hotel Dusk: Room 215

8. Hotel Dusk: Room 215

I love the games like Phoenix Wright and this on the DS. It's a perfect fit. I thought the story was fantastic, and I loved the noire art style and setting. I'm a sucker for mystery books, so this obviously works out for me.

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption

9. Metroid Prime 3: Corruption

I feel it's the weakest game in the trilogy, but it's a great fit for the Wii controls and a lot of fun regardless. And very nice looking.

Super Paper Mario

10. Super Paper Mario

The first good game on the Wii and honestly a lot of fun, even though it could've worked on the GameCube just fine too. I liked the style. Some of it was so super random. Running on a hamster wheel for five minutes straight? Ridiculous. Anyway. Lots of fun and neat looking.
