No, I prefer huge graphical and gameplay changes, like HL to HL2 and COD to COD 2 in order to be worthy a sequel. But seeing as L4D2 borrows the source engine, and they haven't really got another engine to use, then I can see why it may not be so easy. However, the little time between the first and second game feels to me more unworthy of calling it a sequel and the fact there isn't really any thing significantly different gameplay wise (I'm no way hating on L4D2). Same can be said for MW2 too but it's not like they had to stick to the same game engine - they were just being lazy. :p
 
L4D2

but I agree with whoever said 2009 was rubbish for gaming. 2010 looks good though.

Borderlands (L4D2 will probably take this crown when I have put the same hours into it) and Forza 3 for the consoles.

Love the fact that companies are finally twigging onto the demand for co-op action. :D
 
For solely PC gaming maybe, but overall its been great. Uncharted 2, Killzone 2, Street Fighter 4, Tekken 5, Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2, Infamous, Resident Evil 5, Batman: Arkham Asylum and Dragon Age Origins have all been class acts imo.

In my opinion most of those I do not like, the fighting types, hate the movement in RE5 an RE in general, Uncharted 2, killzone 2 and batman are worthy but still I wouldn't say 2009 was that great in my eyes but everyone has the right to their own opinion :)

Dirt 2 will finish the year well, looking forward to seeing some proper DX11 at work as well :P
 
Difficult choice, so I'll go per format :)

PC : Dragon Age: Origins
PS3 : Unchartered 2
Xbox 306 : Forza 3

But would also like to have Batman AA in there to because it was an awesome game.
 
MW2. L4D2 is just an addon for L4D as far as I can see. Doesn't add anything extra that could not have been ann expansion pack. It also made L4D worthless in terms of money and playtime.

agree with that

my crossfire doesnt like left for dead, which makes it a pain to play

You could say the same about CoD:MW2.

They've both got new single player levels, New weapons, Characters.

Both use the same engine (just tweaked), and the only real difference other then the price, is the multiplayer. Valve didn't **** that up.
 
As this is PC forum I would say any of the following are pretty strong title's IMO:

Resident Evil 5
Batman Arkham Asylum
Fuel
Street Fighter 4

Have to say this has been one of the worst years for PC gaming since 2003 & most of the games now are obviously console ports.

I have high hopes that DIRT2 in 2 weeks & SW Force Unleashed next friday will be decent games as well on PC and far superior to their console counterparts.
 
Dragon Age so far although Trine and Braid where also ace albeit not in the Hollywood blockbuster style of things.
 
AA for me, the entire package is just excellent and im not a singleplayer gamer ! The graphics, performance, gameplay all the boxes were ticked. Great game and a deserving winner, though its obviously going to go to MW2. It really is a no brainer :P
