Wii GAME OF THE YEAR

Winner: Super Mario Galaxy (52% of total)
Nintendo EAD Tokyo

"Mario went back to his core. It's just Mario by himself, no waterpumps or other weird shit. The art style and environments were also very, very well done." -Blackscythe125

"Super Mario Galaxy finally gets everything right on the Wii." -dpgagnon

"Do you have to ask? Really?!" -grayscale

Runner-up: Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (21% of total)
Retro Studios

"The artists did so much with so little. I know everyone is going to pick Mario, and it is good, but I feel like it could have been less linear. Metroid seems to have fixed a lot of the older Metroid game problems and actually proved you could do a good FPS on Wii." -ease one

Runner-up: Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition (7% of total)
Capcom

NINTENDO DS GAME OF THE YEAR

Winner: The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass (40% of total)
Nintendo EAD

"The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass is the first Zelda that I have been completely hooked on since A Link to the Past. None of the 3D ones have hooked me the way LttP did. Phantom Hourglass used the touch screen in all the right ways. In fact, after a few hours playing PH, I couldn't imagine controlling link in any other way. It just feels so right." -OverloadUT

"It's hard to pick between Zelda and Pokemon, since they both have provided many hours of on the go gaming pleasure. But Zelda has that Wind Waker charm going for it." -skankcore

Runner-up: Puzzle Quest: The Challenge of the Warlords (12% of total)
Infinite Interactive

"PUZZLE QUEST PUZZLE QUEST PUZZLE QUEST" -yAak

Runner-up: Contra 4 (11% of total)
Konami

"It's a new Contra. It's hard as fuck. Do I need to say more?" -Link.

"Contra 4 was a great throwback. Awww, you didn't beat the level and you gotta start over? TOUGH SHIT! Suck it up!" -grayscale

PSP GAME OF THE YEAR

Winner: Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles (24% of total)
Konami

Runner-up: Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions (23% of total)
Square Enix

Runner-up: Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords (16% of total)
Infinite Interactive

"PUZZLE QUEST PUZZLE QUEST PUZZLE QUEST" -yAak

PLAYSTATION 2 GAME OF THE YEAR

Winner: God of War II (45% of total)
SCE Studios Santa Monica

"God if War II improved almost every aspect of the first game. A good formula." -wildbil52

"It's nice to still have amazing high quality Playstation 2 games. I don't want that to die off." -Drewus

"The only time I booted my PS2 in 2007 was to play God of War II. It is definitely up there for one of the best games of the year." -OverloadUT

Runner-up: Rock Band (13% of total)
Harmonix Music Systems

"Appealed to and brought in more non-gamers than any game since Katamari Damacy." -ezanga

"Rock Band is the best party game ever, supplanting Wii Sports after a year at the top. Wii Sports gets harder the drunker you get, while Rock Band only gets better." -rauol duke

Runner-up: Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock (12% of total)
Neversoft Entertainment

ORIGINAL DOWNLOADABLE CONSOLE GAME OF THE YEAR

Winner: Warhawk (16% of total)
Incognito Entertainment (PS3)

"The first full-featured DLC game that had a lot of meat to it deserves the top spot. While a lot of the other DLC games are fun, most are converted classics made to look better in HD. While they are fun, they just continued to perpetuate that DLC is just a bunch of mini-games, while Warhawk breaks that mold." -grayscale

"Great game play, large community (as large as one can be for the PS3), and lots of developer support." -skankcore

Runner-up: Carcassonne (14% of total)
Sierra Online Seattle (Xbox 360)

"A near-perfect board game to video game conversion, it gives me great hope for the future if the development team can get their hands on some other classic licenses" -amber996

"Carcassonne sucked up so much of my time on a friend's 360. Simple at first glance, but engaging once you realized the depth." -GrimmyD

Runner-up: Pac-Man: Championship Edition (13% of total)
Namco (Xbox 360)

"Drastic improvements were made to an aging classic without diluting proven gameplay." -Killboy25

"This re-imagining of one of the all time classics is just all kinds of awesome." -jayx77

"Who would have thought that one of the most iconic retro arcade games could actually receive a proper sequel 30 years later? Pac-Man: CE proves that not only does the original Pac-Man game design hold up after all these years, but it can remain fresh thanks to a new presentation and dynamically changing mazes." -Sevogajre
