2008 Alties

2007 was considered by many to be one of the greatest years in gaming history, and 2008 had a lot to live up to. Personally, I would have to say that 2008 surpassed last year. It started out somewhat slow, but we’ve been hammered by solid title after solid title over the last few months, and I’m still yet to try a number of games that I was anticipating.

So with the new year under way, the time has come to pay tribute to the best of the best in ‘08. Last year, The 2007 Alties were pretty much just an “Editor’s Choice” kind of deal, but this year we have decided to open the floor up for everyone to voice their opinions.

The games included in the categories are of course what we consider to be titles that are applicable to what we do around here. So in other words, don’t expect to see something like Mortal Kombat vs DC or any Wii games as options. ;)

The polls will close on January 10, so get going:

*Update: Jan. 9 (late evening) - Ok, so I have closed the polls a little earlier than originally listed. They were set to close automatically in a few hours anyway, and I wanted to get the results up before turning in!
