Good to see Mirror's Edge making the run-off. It gets my vote!



I think it might be best that I abstain from voting in the runoff. The game I played most was Smash Bros Brawl. But I think it falls just short of something I enjoyed enough to get my vote. Fallout 3 I get why people like it, but I didn’t enjoy much of my time with it.

Some others there that I think were probably great, but I haven’t played enough of them.



My game's gone now of course, but this runoff I'll vote. Even though I never completed it, it was very impressive at the time, so my vote now is Fallout 3.



No change for me in the runoff, Valkyria Chronicles it is.

Same here, Valkyria Chronicles for 2008.



The one who (currently) gave the edge to VC. :)



Wow. GTA4 didn't even make it to the runoff.

Brawl is my favorite game from 2008 by a mile, but GTA is probably the best game from that year if I was a Vulcan who only looked at things objectively.



Interesting to see how the runoff is progressing so far.  Fallout 3 is really hanging in there, while I don't know what happened to all the Persona 4 fans.  From the new games, Valkyria Chronicles and Dead Space are doing pretty well.  So far the results are close enough that several games can challenge Smash Bros.

Some games age better than others.  Back in 2009, the big games were GTA 4 and Mario Kart Wii.  However, I think a lot of people now see both of those games being overshadowed by GTA 5 and Mario Kart 8, respectively.



Sticking with Tales of Vesperia.
