Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4
I've played Street Fighter IV, Resident Evil 5, Modern Warfare 2, Batman, and pretty much any other AAA title you can think of that's been released this year. But none of them have had the impact on me that Persona 4 had, and still has. I've never been so impressed by the writing in a video game, by the characterizations, the twists and turns, and the sheer amount of thought that must have gone into it.
I was introduced to it by the now famous Endurance Run and that led to me playing the game on a borrowed PS2. For months. I don't know, enough has been written about how brilliant this piece of entertainment is, I feel like I can't add to it.
"But Persona 4 was a 2008 game," you cry. Not in the magical land of Europe it wasn't. So it counts. And that means a PS2 is my game of the year. Deal with it!
