Forums - Gaming - Alan Wake, Mass Effect 2 and Limbo among Time's best games of 2010

Nsanity on 14 December 2010

In collating the top ten of everything in 2010 (excluding the top ten recursive jokes about top ten lists), Time has picked some of its favorite video games from the last twelve months. Among the top ten are science fiction stalwarts Halo: Reach and Mass Effect 2, the elegant and creepy Limbo, and iPhone finch fling-em-up, Angry Birds (which just makes it in, having launched at the very end of 2009).

Time's top choice is Remedy Entertainment's Alan Wake, which is praised by writer Evan Narcisse for its mature craft and metaphoric gameplay. "Its mix of meta-awareness and Hitchcockian suspense make Alan Wake a unique and fun experiment and one of the best games of the year."

Well Alan Wake got totally snubbed at the VGA's so I'm glad it's getting some love here.

I don't think TIME realizes that Sony makes games besides Microsoft. 



All of this, of course, is just my opinion.

Skyrim 100%'d. Dark Souls 100%'d. 
Dark Souls > Skyrim.
Halo 4 is the best damn FPS since Halo 3.

Very good pick of games actually....and Angry Birds is prime as hell.  I just wish they would make it for the PC or XBLA cause I would buy it in an second's heartbeat.
