Your game of the year: Can't think of a game released this year that I've bought...

Single player gaming experience of the year:Star Wars mainly. KOTOR, KOTOR2, Tie Fighter, X-Wing Vs Tie Fighter... Also Fallout 3 and all the DLC

Multiplayer gaming experience of the year: Mario Kart Wii and New Super Mario Brothers Wii - superb fun with 3 other people.

Biggest Letdown of the year: GTAIV - Looks average and ran like crap

Surprise of the year: Dawn of War II - but not in the good way. Didn't live up to DoW. Also GTAIV for the same reasons.

Game or gaming innovation you're most excited about for 2010: Errrr....
Can't think of anything.

Favourite game of the decade: Can't get it down to one...
KOTOR, Fallout 3, Civilization IV, Empire at War, Grand Prix Legends, Deus Ex, NOLF and NOLF2, Mafia, Vampire: Bloodlines, Company of Heroes...

Shame System Shock 2 is a 1999 game....

Wasn't GPL from the late 90's, Flibs?

So it was...

Just that I've been updating it with alarming regularity that it still looks and plays great.

Will try to put reasoning but I'm just not up for a big post right now...

Your game of the year: Dead Space - though technically released in 2008 I didn't get around to playing it until over a year later.

Single player gaming experience of the year: Dead Space - atmospheric, scary and clever. A slight shame the last level wore on so much with the incessant shifting of the artefact, but not enough to make a fuss over.

Multiplayer gaming experience of the year: Only briefly played COD4, Halo 3 and Left 4 Dead this year, but I'd say the latter was my favourite. Not got around to multi in L4D2 yet.

Biggest Letdown of the year: Wolfenstein - Return to Castle Wolfenstein was epic. This was a knob wart by comparison.

Surprise of the year: Red Faction: Guerilla, Dead Space and Arkham Asylum were all surprisingly good I would say, in that I had limited expectations. Enjoyed them all immensely though. And a little late to the game, The Darkness.

Game or gaming innovation you're most excited about for 2010: AvP - bring it on! Oh, and it looks like theres a Dead Space sequel on the cards. Also, Bioshock 2. If it's half the game the first one was then happy days. Here's hoping for a final Condemned instalment too.

Xbox Live Arcade game of the year: Only downloaded one - South Park Tower Defence.

Limited fun but very funny.

Favourite game of the decade: That's a big ask! Any from Deus Ex, Half Life 2, Tomb Raider Legends/Anniversary, GTA: Vice City... In fact, Thief II was released in March 2000. Has to be that. Favourite game of all time.
