I'm working on my vote I have a question how can you put a FPS having the best replay value ???? are you really replaying a FPS more than action or RPG games ???
or you are counting in the multiplayer in which case I understand both of the voters choice for that categories??

me in my case I replayed exhibition games in table tennis a lot... but if I have to put the replay value of game objectively games like ME would be my choice.... it's the principle of the game to be replayable differently...
