VN Awards 2009 : The Ultimate Award

So this is it we've had all of the awards so it must be time for the big one the ultimate award for the overall best game of the year.

It's been a mixed year for games this year as 2008 was always going to be a big act to follow and unfortunatley for us there were'nt that many big games out this year however the ones that were big shone through.

So what were the biggest games of this year we had Modern Warfare 2, Batman Arkham Asylum, Uncharted 2, Wii Sports Resort, Left 4 Dead 2 and many more but which game managed to stand out from the rest as being the best game not only in just graphics, gameplay or storyline but also managed to stitch them all together to make the whole package.

So now it's time to announce the VN Ultimate Game of the Year.
The Nominees are
Batman Arkham Asylum
Dead Space Extraction
Professor Layton and Pandoras Box
Killzone 2
Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2
Left 4 Dead 2
Uncharted 2

And the winner is - Uncharted 2 / Batman Arkham Asylum
Now this might seem like a shock to you but i just couldn't choose between either of them as both games had it all, fantastic graphics, brilliant storyline, amazing set piece, some of the best voice acting i have ever heard and much much more.

Uncharted 2 shone out because i loved the first game so much that i though that it would be really difficult to better it and naughty dog did just that and the reason why Arkham Asylum deserves it is down to the fact that it is the best comic book game ever and it showed just how fantastic a Batman game should be.

It's really easy to go on and on about both games but i won't all i'll just say is that if you have'nt played these two games get out to your local game store now and play them as these are the prime example of how a game should be made.

So thats it for 2009 on VN we will be back in 2010 hopefully much better than this year, so i will see you in 2010.
