half life two, best i've played of those listed, unfortunatly i never got to try "god of war" and it looks so violent.

haven't got around to playing most of those just yet but IMO Halflife 2 should not be on that list because it uses STEAM, Chaos Theory should not be on that list because it uses Starforce, and Doom 3 should not be on that list simply because it has horrible gameplay which does not even live up to Doom II's standards

Watch the language, PuttBull.
And if I absolutely had to choose, I would vote for MGS3 if only for the emotional ending.
Otherwise, I wouldnt pick any of the above.

Psst... when you say this year... most people mean 2005. HL2, MGS3, Doom 3, Chaos Theory, WoW, Halo 2, were last year.

I say RE 4. I just can't stay awake long enough to beat God of War. I just think it is DMC 3 or Ninja Gaiden minus the difficulty. I think RE 4 is just simply a lot of fun. Maybe not tough, but hey, I liked the gameplay enough.

Actually... come to think of it... if I want to beat the crap out of a bunch of morons, I'll play RTW!

Probably HL2, but I'm not buying it as long as the Steam system is in place. To hell with them.

Splinter Cell 3 wasn't bad. Had a few very cool moments, not much replay value though. Looks great with a good system.

What he said...

And I'd go for Silent Hunter III

Hmmmm, resident evil was great for the first hours, but I couldn't really care for it once you left the village. I am currently loving devil may cry 3, I have been playing nothing else really since I bought it. So I will have to go with that one.

If "other" was optonal - I would vote VtM: Bloodlines.

Of those listed I would have to go with Half Life 2. Even though there are some things about it (the dominant gravity gun that is the silver bullet for all problems, steam and a few others) that bother me it is still an excellent game.

I don't think BF2 is a "big gun," but that is just my personal opinion.
Metal Gear Solid 3 has waaay too many cutscenes and the camoflauge system is just wrong. It let me switch camo types while an enemy was ten feet away and then (because I was considered invisible) pop him with my Dragunov.
Doom III was great fun, but the replay value is unfortunately minimal, although the atmosphere is excellent.
Halo 2 was great, but since they dropped the original development team it isn't as good as it should have been, and not quite GOTY material IMHO.

Don't know about the rest of them, but I definately need to get around to buying HOI2.

Isn't it a bit early in the year to have this? IIRC the Stubs the zombie game is coming out, that looks like it will be a great time, though on second thought it probably isn't game of the year material...
