Best of 2010

JolteonGod: Best of 2010
This list represents my personal taste. Throw objectivity out the window, these games are the ones that I love and I arranged them in an order that just feel right.

I'm not afraid to go back and change my list so I'm still playing: Limbo, Kirby's Epic Yarn, Professor Layton, and DJ Hero 2. Don't be surprise if they knocks out Costume Quest from my Top Ten.

EDIT: Super Meat Boy was on this list on the bottom but I finished Red Dead Redemption during the last week of December and clearly, RDR deserve a spot on this list.
EDIT2: Finished Limbo and DJ Hero 2. Knocking off Ace Attorney Investigations even though it was number 8. I like AAI new direction but I couldn't shake off the nostalgic charm of Costume Quest or the Cold War atmosphere of Black Ops. I thought Limbo was great but not it my top 5.

List items

1. Heavy Rain

It may be flawed in story but it doesn't distract from Heavy Rain's story-telling ability. The lizard trial was tensest moment in video game. You just need to give up degree of control and just will yourself to the situation. I really got myself into the game, breathing heavily and trying to sync my mind with Ethan. It may not be a game in a typical sense but that what make it great; Heavy Rain try to transcend how we normally interact with the medium and to me, that make this one of mine greatest experience of 2010.

2. Red Dead Redemption

Basically Grand Theft Auto with horses but Grand Theft Auto IV is my favorite game of 2008 so that was no slam against RDR. It was fun riding through the open western world of RDR and it felt like western movie come to life. The little moments that appear such as horse bandits and prostitute killers help flesh out this world by giving you moments of heroic deeds.
