10. Burnout Paradise (360/PS3)

2008 was meant to be one of the best years ever for video games – and by and large it hasn’t disappointed. Creating a list of the top ten games of the year is a pleasingly difficult one, but the following get our vote. If you disagree, and it’d be inconceivable that you don’t in some way, let us know your favourites below.

    Brilliant game. Graphics are awesome and Paradise city itself is huge. The game has over 150 events to take part in. Its not #1 for realism when it comes to racing but its still fun and a good way to lose some stress (TAKEDOWN!). Another cool thing about this game is its hugely social drop-in drop-out online play with over 450 Freeburn challenges (Multiplayer tasks that take you all over the city), Road rage mode (Team based hunter-hunted) and Marked man mode (Cops and robber type chase). And of-course big respect to Criterion for their endless software update support.

    Heavenly? This game was utter rubbish. It was completely pointless, too erratic and nonsensical. Not being able to restart a race is not annoying, its a fundamental design flaw that renders the entire game redundant.

    Yes this may be so.However it seems that all the program makers have forgotten about the early game systems.For example I was looking forward to the latest "Lara Croft" release.only to be bitterly disappointed to hear that the PS 2 Version wouldn't be released till January 2009.
    They are obviously falling over them selves trying to flog their latest systems ,X Box, PS 3 etc,Its a great shame they hadn't thought there might not have been a lot of cash in peoples pockets to spend.
    Very Disappointed Play station 2 owner.
