Second Runoff Round 2009, Game of the Year

[curl-6]

Oh crap I completely forgot that Monster Hunter Tri came out this year in Japan, because as a Westerner it was a 2010 game for me.

That was easily one of the best games of the 7th generation for me; I spent well over a thousand hours on it as the thrill of the hunt and the core loop of slaying bigger and meaner beasts to crafter better and cooler gear was so addictive.
