2010 was actually a really good year for gamers. Sure there were disappointments, but if anything those should have taught us to be more discerning with our expectations, and on the flip side, there were also a bunch of games that no one saw coming and still managed to blow us away.
It is hard to believe that there were 50 games in 2010 that were well worth checking out. That works out to around 4 solid games per month, and almost one every week.
So here are fifty games that made 2010 a sweet year for gamers. The list does not include expansion packs or DLC. Of course there were actually far more games that could be added to the list, but 50 is a such a nice round number.
