10 best PS3 games of 2010

28 November 2010

Last week we began our annual roundup of the year’s best games, starting with those released on PC. Today we take a look at the best games which graced the PlayStation 3 over the course of the year, and what a year it was.

First off, is Gamerankings‘ top ten, which gives us an idea of the games which were the most highly regarded among the mainstream gaming media by aggregating review scores.

Gamerankings’ top 10 PS3 games of 2010

1. Red Dead Redemption – 94.76%

2. God of War III – 92.07%

3. Super Street Fighter IV – 92.23%

4. Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood – 91.48%

5. Rock Band 3 – 90.88%

6. MLB 10: The Show – 90.53%

7. NHL 11 – 89.72%

8. Heavy Rain – 89.30%

9. NBA 2K11 – 89.27%

10. GTA IV: Episodes from Liberty City – 89.27%

Shockingly, Gran Turismo 5 did not cut the mustard, receiving an aggregate of 88.10%. One of the chief complaints coming in from reviewers is that the game’s damage modelling is weak, however, recent reports have revealed that true damage modelling kicks in after level 40, in order to make it easier to progress through the early stages. This aggregate is based on 10 reviews, and may edge up as more publications weigh in. CoDBlops also narrowly missed making the cut, with an aggregate of 89.03%.
