People will think you're a fanboy because of your best graphics pic (even though you are probably right). BTW really MW2? It wasn't even that good lol.

Well its not my choice now is it? Its a collection of awards. See more at => www.gotypicks.blogspot.com

 

You can find the graphics there in the "Genre category" of each year, as well as the lists of each year. I just summed up the top 5 and threw in something VGC loves to bicker about :P, GRAPHIX!11!1

 

EDIT: Tried to make it more clear in the topic. Added a bold and underline sentence.

Whether it's your choice or not it really doesn't matter seeing as the fanboys will feast on this thread soon. LOL

I think his pic from the girl in Uncharted kind of gives it away =P. As does my pic.

You'd think more people would be buying/playing all those ps3 games since they're critically acclaimed. Is Skyrim truly multiplat? I heard a lot of ps3 owners couldn't play it very well.

Yeah! Im a proud azz fanboy :P. The topic however isnt my list in any way. Mine would have PS3 exclusives as top and barely many multi haha. But its basically the closest shit we got to Metacritic but for awards lol.

I agree with the graphical picks. XBots might not like it but who cares. But lets forget about that for a second and be honest. Nothing in the box for those years rivals the Sony exclusives in detailing. Nothing. But looking back, 2008 is land of bad graphics. LOL-__- Even the best MGS4, looks mediocre to Uncharted 3, and such.
