Flamebait Friday Debate: Best Game Of 2010 So Far Popular
   July 23rd, 2010 clock image 11:30 am

screen4sequence.jpg

Happy Friday. Ok, that’s enough of the nice talk, it’s time to get down and dirty with this week’s Flamebait Friday Debate.

We are already over the halfway mark for 2010 (scary, I know) and it’s time to look at the games of 2010 that have already rocked our world.

The Playstation 3 has had some power this year with mega-titles like Heavy Rain and God of War III and the Xbox 360 has had its fair share of exclusives with Mass Effect 2, Alan Wake and Splinter Cell: Conviction. We also can’t forget Super Mario Galaxy 2 on the Nintendo Wii either.

Then there’s still all of the other multi-platform releases like Red Dead Redemption and Bad Company 2 as well as incredible downloadable titles, like the just-released and hauntingly mesmerizing LIMBO.

There’s been a fine selection, but which one has been the best? Let’s have it.

  • Krythan

    Mass Effect 2

  • lans

    ur mother was the best game of 2010 :angry:

  • AC!D

    Mass Effect 2

  • bokka1

    Mass Effect 2.

    @ Krythan: I am surprised at your choice, seeing you spent a billion hours on RDR.

  • ewie

    And there I thought it was the game you have been playing all year round.

    The racing game you have played million times.

  • lans

    Red dead redemption is nothing but horse porn all you do is stare at a incredibly detailed horses butt for hours on end. that game promotes beastiality and should be banned

    the best game of 2010 will Gran turismo 5, followed by Halo Reach and Littlebigplanet 2, and those are the only runner ups…..

  • D4RKL1NGza

    Beastiality? You really are fucked in the head.

  • L1cAm3tal

    Just 11 hours and 23minutes and 34 seconds to go! STARCRAFT 2!!!!!!!!!

  • http://www.lazygamer.co.za Gavin Mannion

    One of your weaker attempts at working up the masses.

    Halo Reach may be a shock contender for GOTY but it’s going to have to be something truly special to outrank Mass Effect 2 and Red Dead Redemption…
