According to the collective group of video game critics, these are the best games of 2008:
- Grand Theft Auto IV (98 ’ 360, 98 ’ PS3)
- LittleBigPlanet (95 ’ PS3)
- Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (94 ’ PS3)

- Rock Band 2 (92 ’ 360, 91 ’ PS3 / AVERAGE: 91.5)
- God of War: Chains of Olympus (91 ’ PSP) and World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King (91 ’ PC)
My thoughts: GTA IV is good (but I couldn’t play it past 20 hours for becoming monotonous), LPB is cute but boring, MGS4 is archaic, Bioshock is a good time, Brawl is fun but overrated (I’d rather play Mario Kart), Gears of War 2’s story makes me blush with embarrasment, I didn’t play Chrono Trigger, Braid is fun but overrated, World of Goo is tops (!), I didn’t play Fallout 3 but Jack gushes over it, Rock Band 2 is “fully awesome” (can you name the movie?), Chains of Olympus isn’t near as good as God of War 2, and I don’t play WoW. You?
