GB Feature: Game of the Year 2008 Awards

With 2008 officially behind us, it's time to list our picks for last year's best role-playing games. There are two things worthy of note this year. First, we've renamed the "Action RPG of the Year" award to "RPG Hybrid of the Year". Since there's so much genre blending going on in modern game development and the definition of what an "action RPG" is varies from gamer to gamer, we feel this new category will give us more freedom to point out non-traditional RPGs that truly deserve some praise.

Secondly, we've added a "Most Anticipated" award for the game our small staff is most looking forward to next year. I wish I could tell you that the sheer number of non-MMO RPGs on the horizon gave cause for lots of deliberation, but the truth is that there just weren't many to pick from. Sad, but true.

In any case, let us know what you think of the picks by sounding off in our forums!
