While it is easy to call it a GTA with horses, Red Dead Redemption is much more than that. Believable western setting, interesting characters that either likable or hateful in a meaningful way, gameplay that may make the future of RockStar's open-world games, and music that makes you feel like your in the west.
The epic journey of Shepard continues with Mass Effect 2 with improve gameplay from the combat to conversations. Story really is really well done with how choices do effect the out-coming including events that you had done in ME1 saves. Characters are interesting to play and interact with allowing for a stronger relationship with them.
It's Super Mario Galaxy, again. Enough said.
Proof that the Japanese can make games. Bayonetta brings to the table a crazy story, excellent combat that surpasses Devil May Cry, and pretty, and also sexy, to look at.
Proof that JRPGs aren't dead, P3P brings its already excellent RPG/social interaction gameplay from Persona 3 and add some improvements from P4. Also its on the go.
While broken in a lot of places (EX: I FELL OFF THE MAP FOR SOME REASON!) New Vegas still offer up the same great experiences of Fallout 3 with some improvements in areas that were needed, great cast of characters, real endings with multiply outcomes, and more than one way to play it.
Again, proof that the Japanese can make games. Vanquish is a impressive game with a smooth 3rd person shooter gameplay that makes Gears look really slow, impressive visuals, and a over the top show.
Video games are art and Limbo is a example of that. Gameplay of dying to understand puzzles as a mechanic but as fits with the world of Limbo as you push forward in a grim world.
A tale of interesting and deep characters with multiply paths to take with the outcome being very different. Impressive visuals that help characters show emotions and believable movements. More than just a quick-time event.
Still the great god of war that we know and love.
