Made mine! :D

Alpha Protocol is my number 1.
 
Just going to leave this here.

Cool, I'll see if I can actually come up with 10 2010 games that I played this year.

"

Im pretty sure Mass Effect 2 will win GOTY.

"

Awesome stuff. Good to know we've got up until some time in January.

1. Heavy Rain
2. Mass Effect 2
3. Super Mario Galaxy 2
4. Red Dead Redemption
5. Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood
6. Halo: Reach
7. Gran Turismo 5
8. Call of Duty: Black Ops
9. Super Meat Boy
10. God of War III
 
Check my lists to also see my Best of 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009.

So, this means that Dorito Crash Course will be a GOTY contender? YES!

So it doesn't matter if it's less than 10?

Does the Sly Collection count? As I said in my own list it's a bit of a cheat as they didn't obviously come out in 2010 originally, but since I had never played them before hand and the updates to them I still consider it one of the best 2010 releases.

I'm not done yet but here.

Here's MINE. I'm surprised more people haven't put BioShock 2 on their list - I loved that game.

took a bit of head scratching but mine's done. 
here it is

Here my top  

I simply didn't play ten AAA-games in 2010 - hell, not even five. I mostly play (alleged) casual games these days    

I bet most people will forget God of War 3 came out this year and kicked ass.

Yeah! Just completed my Top Ten list... 
Hey guess what? Mass Effect 2 and Red Dead Redemption are both in my top 2. How original!

Cool, i was already working on my list... 
 
I know Assassins Creed Brotherhood will be on there; but i won't be playing it untill somewhere in 2011..

done, and done...http://www.giantbomb.com/profile/trelongxferris/best-of-2010/46-49376/

What exactly qualifies as "released in 2010"? If something was released in North America pre-2010 but didn't come out in Europe or Japan until 2010, or came out in Europe or Japan in 2010 but hasn't come out at all in North America, does it count?

" So it doesn't matter if it's less than 10? "

My list is complete! It's hard to think of 10 games... I like to think I will be about one of the only people who have the game I have as number 1...

I have played only 3 2010 games. Woohoo!!!

Deadly Premonition for GOTY! We can make this happen, people. :P

I think I have a pretty varied list. I didn't have the time to play Brotherhood and Red Dead, but I will eventually play them.
 

	1. Bayonetta
	2. Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 Portable
	3. Super Mario Galaxy 2
	4. Call of Duty: Black Ops
	5. Super Meat Boy
	6. BioShock 2
	7. No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle
	8. Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep
	9. Limbo
	10. Cave Story

Here is mine ;)  http://www.giantbomb.com/profile/sheetsy77/best-of-2010/46-49460/

i guess im done, didnt play much this year unfortunately. 
here's my list.

" Don't forget Minecraft people. "

Pretty good year for gaming. Here's my picks for what it's worth.

does borderlands game of the year count? I absolutly love that game! :D

Best of 2010

Soap: Best of 2010 
 
I'd like to begin this list by stating that 2010 has been a pretty disappointing year for me in terms of games. A lot of games that I thought had great potential have ended up being pretty bad, so much so that I will be creating a second list with my most disappointing games of 2010, and there is a strong possibility that it may end up being a longer list than this one which is a shame, because even though its easy to rag on games for being bad, no one ever buys one hoping it will be.  
 
Anyway, here is my list for 2010 which was hard to put together not because I could only fit 10 games, but because I could only really get behind about 6 of them. 

	1. Mass Effect 2 As someone who originally didn't enjoy the first Mass Effect game this was a revelation for me, I even went back and played through (and loved) the first Mass Effect! An epic Space Opera with a beautiful art style, moody electronic score and a more complex system of alien relations. In all seriousness, I prefer this to Star Wars and Star Trek combined.
	2. Red Dead Redemption I had great hopes for this game and it didn't disappoint in the slightest. A great change of pace from the usual GTA style that Rockstar is known for this game had a great story that was well told, involving and epic gameplay and an ending that left me with chills. It was seriously close between this and Mass Effect 2 for number one, the only reason ME2 won was due to the overarching 3 part epic story its been telling.
	3. Enslaved: Odyssey to the West Something of a surprise for me, Enslaved came out of left field and knocked me off my feet with it's beautiful enviroments and epic set pieces, this game reminded me very heavily of the experience I had with Uncharted 2 last year, which can only be a good thing. Sadly it was let down ever so slightly by the repetitive combat and an ending that just didn't sit right with me. I look forward to what ever this series can bring in the future.
	4. Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood A great game that takes the Assassins Creed 2 formula and expands on it. Only isn't higher up on the list due to a large feeling of having done it all before. Still had a blast though.
	5. God of War III A truly epic ending to a great series. I hadn't given the God Of War series even a look before November of this year, but after a friend lent me the God Of War Collection for PS3 I was hooked and God of War 3 takes everything about the franchise to it's logical epic and brutal conclusion.
	6. Minecraft Still in Beta I hear you cry? So it doesn't count? Well fuck you! :D I really couldn't care about the politics of this list, all I know is that this game came out in 2010 and was cheaper, more fun and more addictive than most other things released in the year and the majority of it was made by 1 man. Fucking Bravo sir.
	7. Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction A big overhaul to the established series kept this game feeling fresh, I enjoyed its brief campaign I even went on to finish it on all difficulties and a great deal of the co-op play as well.
	8. Pokémon HeartGold/SoulSilver Sure it's Pokémon, sure it's the same as ever but a retelling of one of my favourite games from my child hood is still a great game. Plus the Pokéwalker was rad ;)
	9. Super Meat Boy So hard... I hate you... yet, I love you.
	10. Deadly Premonition Didn't actually play this game, but the ER this year was a great show and every time I walk past this in the stores now I can't help but be tempted to pick it up.

Everyone's tastes are different and have buttons to push that other don't have. But everyone who puts Bayonetta in the top three are wrong.

Done!

Gonna add mine here because it seems it's the hip thing to do.

It was pretty hard to think about games mostly because I don't have a console except the PSP which isn't such a big hitter. Many PC games were just ported from consoles and some were canceled completely like Alan Wake so it wasn't exactly a great year (still a very good year with ME2 and such). Plus some games like Assassin's Creed II were released on the PC this year but I didn't want to add them as they were already released last year on consoles. Same kind of deal with DA:O awakening which is a great expansion but still an expansion to a game released last year.

Red Dead Redemption or bust!

Job done!
 
Best of 2010!

Even if you think Minecraft is actually out, it 'came out' last year.
 
Keep this in mind, or waste some votes; that's cool.

I decried Mass Effect 2 at the start of this year.  I said it wasn't likely to make the GOTY awards because there was so much time until the year end tabulations.  However, it stands at the top of my list today.  I was wrong.  This also makes me wonder about the quality of the releases this year.  I know I had several games disappoint me this year which I would have earlier thought of as GOTY contenders. 

And, done.
