2005, Game of the Year

[Kyuu]

1. Shadow of the Colossus (GOAT material)
2. Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection (phenomenal gameplay)
3. Resident Evil 4 (a poor Resident Evil experience, but a great and innovative game)
4. Oddworld Stranger's Wrath (probably my favorite Xbox game)
5. DMC3 (a return to form after the crushing disappointment that was DMC2. Not as good as Kamiya's original masterpiece though)
