Prince of Persia XBOX 360

Mass Effect XBOX 360, pretty much the best RPG I own on the BOX.

M2TW Gold Edition, loving Kingdoms very much.

Glactic Civs 2, awsome game and humerous at times.

I'm gonna have to go with Left4Dead. It's also the only game I purchased in 2008 (besides mount and blade, which i already had)

Mount & Blade

Where M:TW (the original) fulfilled my longstanding desire to share the experience of a medieval general, Mount & Blade fulfilled my longstanding desire to share the experience of a medieval soldier. It has the most satisfying combat gameplay of any game I've ever played and is just a blast all around.

Crysis: Warhead
for $30 i got 2 games. the campaign, which i have finished 4 times already, is amazingly fun, and runs smooth on medium settings, and the mp arm of crysis, Crysis Wars is also fun....
but not many people play Crysis wars, so good servers are limited.
oh well.

A tie between Mass Effect and Left 4 Dead.

Mass Effect was purchased at the start of the year and was the first game I got for my 360, despite being conversation heavy I really liked the story and the combat bits were pretty fun. (except Geth snipers. WHAT THE

) When i heard ME was gonna be worked into a trilogy of some sort with a sequal already planned I was pretty happy I had gotten the first and experienced the start of the story-arch.

Left 4 Dead was something I bought at the end of the year. At first I wasn't impressed, playing offline, but once I went online with a few friends i saw just how fun this game could be. It's currently one of my most played PC games right beside Fallout 3, which lands in the top 3 right behind those two.
