Seventh (or eighth) gen games that surprised you with awesomeness?

[Conina]

Games like Super Mario Galaxy, BioShock, The Last of Us, Mass Effect, Skyrim and Assassin's Creed 2 had all the hype in the world (high profile studios and/or series).

Games that really surprised me were titles like The Puppeteer, Resogun, Mirror's Edge, Darksiders, Overlord, Portal, Guacamelee!, Journey, Ghost Trick, Trine, World of Goo, Venetica, Braid and Hotel Dusk: Room 215.
