Best of 2010

1. Mass Effect 2Mass Effect 2https://giantbomb.com/wiki/Games/Mass_Effect_2Opens wiki page

This is easily my 2010 GOTY. You build up your dirty dozen equivalent of intergalactic mofos enough said.

2. Red Dead RedemptionRed Dead Redemptionhttps://giantbomb.com/wiki/Games/Red_Dead_RedemptionOpens wiki page

I love westerns and this let me live my cowboy dreams plus it had great horse ass.

3. Halo: ReachHalo: Reachhttps://giantbomb.com/wiki/Games/Halo_ReachOpens wiki page

Bungie's sendoff to Halo was spectacular.

4. Need for Speed: Hot PursuitNeed for Speed: Hot Pursuithttps://giantbomb.com/wiki/Games/Need_for_Speed_Hot_PursuitOpens wiki page

Please make more Need for Speed games that don't focus on the Fast and Furious culture. That damn autolog is a great and annoying addition.

6. Battlefield: Bad Company 2Battlefield: Bad Company 2https://giantbomb.com/wiki/Games/Battlefield_Bad_Company_2Opens wiki page

Despite the single player being alright, the multiplayer component was compelling, awesome and great for fans of the genre. Add the Vietnam expansion pack to the equation and that's enough to make it a GOTY contender.
