PLAYSTATION®3 is the future......NOW.......B_E_L_I_E_V_E

The decade isn't over til Dec, 2010.

Still...

2001: Halo: it may not be a fantastic game, but being in college when this dropped offered hours of drunken killing in the dorms.

2002: Metroid Prime: Easy choice.

2003: Star Wars KOTOR: Easily the best Star Wars game and an altogether great western RPG.

2004: Half-Life 2: I'd still consider it the best overall FPS I've played.

2005: Psychonauts: It didn't perform well sales wise, but I thought it was the most original game of the year.

2006: I have to leave this one blank, nothing really stood out. I might have picked Twilight Princess, but I found it to be a disappointment.

2007: Bioshock: Literally dripping with atmosphere, except for some RPG's it pulled me into it's world much more than other games.

2008: Little Big Planet: It definitely had problems, but I'm a sucker for local Co-op and my friends and I have had a blast with this game.

2009: Uncharted 2: Surpasses the original in every way, closest I'll ever get to being in an action movie.



Around the Network

No Ico or Shadow of the Colossus on these lists depresses me greatly.
That said, I suck at years so I'll just list ten (in no particular order):

Ico
Shadow of the Colossus
Half-Life 2
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater
Deus Ex
Beyond Good and Evil
Super Mario Galaxy
Baldur's Gate 2
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

Eh, probably forgetting something. Oh well.

Some of you are totally not objective rofl

That's because choosing a list of the best games of the decade, which is based on opinion, is supposed to be completely subjective.  You can not have an objective "Top ten games of the decade", it's a complete impossibility.
