Best of 2010

My personal best of list for 2010! I still have assassins creed brotherhood and red dead redemption to play but unfortunately haven't had the time so either of those may get slotted in before January is over. I don't have a ps3, so no games from there... sorry. I don't think it has been the most stellar year for games this year, but there has still been a lot of good games out there to choose from.  So here it is, feel free to let me know how I am terribly wrong and have no taste. Thanks!

List items

  • Man this was a sweet experience. It was a great adventure from start to finish, the pacing was fantastic and the atmosphere and look was really awesome. I think the puzzles in this game are amazing it was truly difficult in some parts but every time I bordered on frustration I found the answer. I think this is ten times the game braid was, its beauty is its simplicity.

  • Dead rising 2 is faaantastic. It has everything I loved from the first game a bat-shit crazy story, a colorful cast of psychos, a shit ton of weapons and even more zombies. The weapon combo system was a great addition, even if it was at the expense of photography. Chuck Greene was great as the new protagonist and I loved the little nods to the first game. On top of that all of my complaints from the first game were dealt with, yay for survivors that can survive! Co-op is fun as hell just to muck around in, and there is just so much to do. This game didn't have the same impact on me as dead rising 1 but its still a hell of a fun time.

  • Super meat boy is a god damn game, a painful painful game. This is a super addictive game and even if it has you tearing your hair out and still coming back. I spent probably an hour and a half playing the kid's stage and only made it to the second screen, got frustrated and switched my xbox off... I was back half an hour later to unlock him like a man! Character building stuff, you want character don't you?

  • I have always been a halo fan. I liked halo 1,2 and 3 and halo reach defiantly has the best campaign of the bunch. Firefight mode was a nice new feature and the daily and weekly challenges were a revelation. Customizing your dude is addictive and the multiplayer is probably the best it has ever been. The ultimate halo package.

  • More Mario galaxy. Not really more to be said about this one... oh its also a lot harder than the first one which I came to the conclusion is a good thing. May lack some of the charm but its still beautifully crafted 3D platforming that your not going to find anywhere else this year.

  • Probably the most simple game I played all year and easily one of the best. I truly believe this is the absolute perfect pass and play game. I was convinced to buy this after watching the quick look on this site and I was so glad I did, so thank you Giant Bomb! Now just give me one more go, I want all the gold!

  • I never liked team fortress 2. I loved the style but just couldn't get into it. I feel like this is my TF2, this was great fun and a whole bunch of it. It was an excuse to get on my mic again and I thought it was terrifically balanced game and I enjoyed playing all the classes. Even the medic was fun to play! Plus this game has one of the most important things a game can have, charm. A great experience and still a whole bunch of people playing which is no small feat for an xbla game.

  • Improved in every way over the original. It looked better, sounded better, and the career and online modes were much improved. Presentation was really a focus this time round, but the most important improvement was the gameplay. The standup felt a lot more real and you can actually get into some real brawls, the new system on the ground was way better than the original system. This game is a shining example of how to do a sequel.

  • Eat many ghosts.

  • It was a hard choice for game number ten. Case zero and super street fighter IV just missed out on this spot. This is a game I played years ago and in my opinion the best in the series, this is that again but it looks prettier. That is all I need as I'm a shallow, nostalgic fool. Plus this is just about the only game I needed my DS for this year and it ate up some god damn hours.
