1. Gears of War

Publisher: Microsoft

Developer: Epic Games

Released: November

Primary platform: Xbox 360

Sometimes, words fail. Superlatives donʼt do justice to Gears of War, the game no one should be forced to read about and the one everyone should be forced to play. The third-person shooter offers gruesomely bloody warfare, a simple play style where the hero takes cover or dies, and a series of memorable moments piled on one after another. Its multiplayer options cement the gameʼs immortality; Gears of War is not only the best game of this year, it is the best game of an as-yet-undetermined number of years.
