Top Gaming News Story of 2009: HALO: REACH
Biggest Disappointment of 2009: OPERATION FLASHPOINT: DRAGON RISING
Most Anticipated Game of 2010: HALO: REACH

So, I don't think this year has been a fantastic year for gaming, I've bought a few decent games but nothing that has been utterly fantastic that has held my attention for very long hours on a regular basis. I had a few disappointments, ODST being too short and not as good as I'd hoped, Flashpoint which was utterly dull, Street Fighter was underwhelming and Modern Warfare is still over rated online. Oh and Resi 5 wasn't nearly as good as Dead Space. I think the only game this year I have been pretty satisfied with is Halo Wars :lol:

Next year I've got my eyes on three games as hopefully living up to expectations, those being Halo: Reach, Mario Galaxy 2 and Crackdown 2. Here's to a better 2010 :!: :o
