Game of the Year

The Game of the Year is the final award, the final category, and the final reckoning for the absolute best of the best of 2009. Like in previous years, this category has an expanded list of finalists. GameSpot has nominated not five, but 10 of the best games on all platforms for the year's top 10 list, and considering the year's abundance of amazing games, simply making the cut as a finalist should absolutely be considered an honor in itself. Here are the top 10 games of the year. But remember...there can be only one.

    People who are trashing this game are haters who are fanboys. This game is amazing. It was either this or Uncharted 2 that would win. Either way it was going to be a sony exclusive so get over it fanboys.

    Both Unchart 2 and Demon's Soul are great. But Demon's Soul has more depth and challenges. It's too bad that I voted Unchart 2 before start playing DS . I am still playing the DS. It's very addictive and you can play in so many ways/roles/times.It's the game I will say - it's only 60 bucks.

    Just because a game is slightly higher rated,Doesnt mean its any better or worst.Gamespot isnt exactly perfect in their reviews and anyways its just their Opinion.Ive read a few reviews where they take off points because they dont like something that doesnt have any impact on the game itselfs.Anyways I couldnt pick a game of the year because there are so many that are just too good.

    demon souls kind of uses the same idea as fable 2 with the invisible players, i really liked that

    I had my doubts before trying, but Demon's SOuls is AMAZING. There is literally nothing bad to say about this game aside from my own usual gripes, the game is very difficult but so rewarding.

    #S0crates If demons souls was those things so is dragon age. Both of them aren't but it was an incredibly ignorant thing to say.

    It upsets me I'll never have the inclination to play such a punishing, time consuming game, albeit one with fantastic online innovations. Ladies and gentlemen this game is something of a revolution of its kind, if it were more accessible this would be widely recognized as one of the great games of our time.
