(Xbox 360) Similar to the previous year's Fable 2, where I awarded my fave game of the year to a sequel to a game I despised. Excellent setting, fun distractions, enjoyable mechanics...not only my fave game, but as my 2010 list of backlog games show, quite an influence on my gaming tastes.
(2008)I watched about 75% of the Endurance Run, and enjoyed just watching it, I had to go get a copy and play about 80 hours on top of the entire showing.
(Xbox 360, 2008) I spent a week putting 80 hours into this beast. I had to start and stop twice, before just jumping in fully outside the vault, and I clearly never turned back. Except for the mission where you go back to the vault.
I liked the first one enough, but this one just improves on everything. Interactive roller coaster ride storytelling at its peak.
(Xbox 360) Also a big surprise, considering the quality of previous Batman games, but The Dark Knight gets his proper due as the lethal, silent shadow that he is.
I enjoyed the style-specific missions. A minor surprise, if only because a lot seem down on the game .
(PS3) I've been a complete sucker for Bioware's 'morality' adventures since KOTOR, and the game sustains the epic overarching story, entertaining mini-quests and fun writing contained in the developer's titles.
(Xbox 360) It felt as though they tried a little too hard with the crazy, and I didn't find as many missions replayable as I did MW1, but not a lot went wrong otherwise.
(Xbox 360, 2007) For the first time in many years, I sat down and played a racer for hours on end. A dignified design compared to its more "extreme" direct sequel.
(2008) Improved on the original in many ways as well, a fun ride all the way through with fewer frustrating slow bits. Didn't find I wanted to replay it much, however.
