Not a terribly remarkable year for sure, although there are a lot of solid titles. My vote goes to Alan Wake. It wasn't the best game ever, but it was a memorable one. I was initially going to vote for Civilization V, but while excellent, it lacks the magic of Alan Wake. Fallout: New Vegas might also get my vote, but it's stuck waiting in my backlog, so I'm not exactly well-qualified to vote for it, and Alan Wake seems like a pretty good choice to me.
