Well, here it is – the culmination of one year of great games, and one month of voting for IndianVideoGamer Game of the Year 2008. With a PlayStation 3 up for grabs as the prize in this category, we thought that many members would simply vote for the usual suspects in order to win the PS3, rather than for their favourite games. But looking at the top 10 list below, it’s hard to find fault with it. Most would agree that these are the 10 best games of 2008.
