Was going to comment about EG's Dead Space line, but it seems many others have already done that.

I didn't like Braid at alll... it certainly isn't in my top ten games of 2008 not would Star Wars: The Force Unleashed or Gears of War 2 for that matter. Mine would include GTA IV, Metal Gear Solid 4, MLB 08: The Show, Fallout 3, Banjo-Kazooie XBLA, Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts and Midnight Club LA just off the top of my head.

The only thing contraversial here about Dead Space is EG's review. No way was that game a 7/10. That score completely misrepresents a brilliant game. More of an 9 in my view. I really loved it. Reminded me an awful lot of System Shock.

The list was ok but they havent played L4D i presume. Braid should beat GTAIV too.
1. L4D 2. Braid 3. Gears2 4. LBP 5. Dead Space 6. GTAIV 7. MGS4 8. NG2 9. SSF2THDR 10.Fable 2 I actually would have put SW:TFU on 11. |

Have you played the full game or just the demo? Have you actually solved a puzzle piece. If not your opinion isnt valuable imo. No offense but demos isnt always enough to form an opinion. In Braids case its definently not. |

Technically GTAIV is amazing but if you strip it to the bare bones it's very linear and all of the missions are basically the same (drive here, kill someone, drive back). I wish Rockstar could have improved the substance as well as the style this time around.
1. Fallout 3 2. Braid 3. Crash Time 2 |

"Predictably, and justifiably, Gears of War 2 was there at five, trailed by two controversial inclusions: Dead Space and Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Both received 7/10 here on Eurogamer, you may remember."
Hah, i love the way EG thinks that it's controversial because it disagreed with their review score. Force unleashed shouldn't be on there, but Dead Space should - if only for the fact every game could learn something about production value (and most importantly, keeping the player IN the game) from it. It also deserved a 9/10 a not the total MISS of a 7/10 it got on here. I agre with EG on most games, but every so often you guys go wildly off the mark either way (score a crap game really high or score a great game relatively low) in my opinion. |

I personally think the voting of top games would be better if people could only select one game and it would be the game they have most played in 2008. I think that would be more accurate because I think people's votes get less accurate as they go down a list. I always struggle a little bit to place games later in a list but usually know my favourite game straight off. I also think most played is better than favourite as most played is really about what game you really enjoyed. It does weight the result slightly in favour of longer lasting games, i.e. games with greater value but then I think those games are better and if a shorter game has excellent replay value then it will make the list anyway.
