Aggrogamer Presents: 2009 Games of the Year

We also thought of making just one list of our votes on Game of the Year, but instead settled on everyone coming up with their own lists and to forgo one single title as the Game of the Year. So what you see below will be each writer's personal choices for platforms, downloads and even some imports.

I would like to point out we allowed some games that showed up on PC to be picked as Game of the Year for a console, if it was the only console to receive that title. We also did not choose a title if we hadn't played one for a specific console or didn't find anything worthwhile.

Here are our writing staff's picks for Game of the year:

As you can see, there are many different tastes amongst our staff. Only a few titles garnered more than 2 votes. 2009 was a very good year for gaming, and 2010 looks to be an even better year in terms of what will be coming out. With games like Mass Effect 2, God of War III, Final Fantasy XIII, Dante's Inferno, and more on the horizon, we look forward to seeing how 2010 plays out.
