Alan Wake was my most anticipated game of 2010 and it didn't disappoint me, but the game-play ran out of steam towards the end and the story didn't resonate with me as much as other games did that year. Other than that and some smaller issues I didn't have that many problems with Alan Wake but 2010 was a big year and some other games had more of an impact on me.

Conviction is my bad ass simulator, I always felt powerful and in control no matter how much the odds were stacked against me. It made me feel like a hunter that was more powerful than his enemies but could also be killed for making one mistake, a feeling I haven't had since the original Crysis. The story was good for what it was (considering how drunk Michael Ironside is throughout) but the game play was what stuck with me.

I was a little skeptical about this game when I first heard about it, I enjoy the Burnout games a lot but I wasn't sure that Criterion could bring their own unique spin to the Need For Speed Franchise, but this game had to be the best NFS game in years. The multi-player is a blast with or without friends and the Cop portions of the single-player can be just as fun. Although the Racing campaign has some serious rubber banding issues Hot Pursuit ended up being my favorite racer of the year.

My major issue with Fallout 3 was how the later half of the game didn't feel open because most streets in the D.C. area would force the player onto a certain path by having other paths blocked with debris. That also forced you to use the subway system which was the same recycled environment over and over. Those issues left a sour taste in my mouth for the rest of the game but New Vegas fixed that with the Mojave Desert which is a completely open area like past Bethesda games. New Vegas refined most of the issues I had with Fallout 3 and it ended up hooking me in until the end, even with the glitches.

It had a better campaign than I was expecting but still didn't pull me in as much as Modern Warfare 1 and 2 did and I'm finally starting to get bored with Call of Duty multi-player so hopefully they change it up some next installment.
