And The Nominees Are!

It's that time of the year; a time where you give thanks, eat to much, drink to much, watch a lot of movies, visit with family and of course play a crap-ton of games. Yet in that celebrated time I allotted myself a moments rest to go over with you (the readers) MY Games of the Year Nominations.

As stated above, winners will be posted December 26th, 2008. It's going to be hard for me to narrow each list down to one winner (especially that daunting Game of the Year List) but I'll do my best to pick the ones that I feel had the attributes to be winners. "To each his own"...right?
