Alright, I admit it, NHL 09 shouldn't be in there. Just didn't want to offend any hockey fanatics :P
They should have put in Gears 2, Chains of Olympus and TWEWY instead of BioShock (again, amazing game, but 2007 game), NHL 09 and Braid.
Remember these aren't the Game of the Year nominees. Just the preliminary candidates. Not that I know the difference, mind you.
