So what was the single best game that you played in 2008 (and was released in '08) ? And console/PC/Mac/portable game.....

World Of Goo (WiiWare)

For me it's Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 which was just released for the PS2.

Yes, PS2 -- though if they make one in this series for the PS3 that'll be my final cue to get one....

Some people here need calendars.

Anyway, I'll throw my vote to GTA, though I can't figure out if my lack of enthusiasm is because it's bee so long since I played it, or a bit of disappointment from the underwhelming multi.
