Games of 2009: Eurogamer Office Picks

The unseen heroes have their say.

Tom Champion (Venatio), one half of the Eurogamer Expo and expert at FIFA 10, has gone for Batman: Arkham Asylum.

David Lilley, the other half of the Eurogamer Expo, said Assassin's Creed II was his pick.

Barbara Loman, mother of the brothers and mother of Eurogamer, has picked Heavy Rain, even though it isn't out yet.

It's not even bloody out yet! Farce. FARCE.

Paul Loman, Mario stunt double and godfather of Eurogamer, has also picked Heavy Rain.

Chris Ward (fatchris), our indignant but chirpy developer, hopped on the Trials HD bandwagon.

Craig Munro (craigy), who's also a developer, zoomed in on FIFA 10.

Matt Styles, Eurogamer advert seller, put "closing" to one side to pay his respect to... Trials HD. Get a room!

Oh I give up.

Simon Downes, developer and the tallest man I've ever seen, went for Modern Warfare 1!

Martin Taylor (mouse), designer and laughter/excitement machine, picked... Oh it's Trials HD for god's sake.

I was hoping everyone would be too preoccupied to remember about me. Craig wasn't. So I, Robert Purchese, told Craig Munro why I had fallen for FIFA 10 as well.

Thanks everyone! That's almost it for our games of 2009. Join us tomorrow for one final burst - the Eurogamer Game of the Year!
