Definitely inFAMOUS for me so far. I've spent most of this year concentrating on games in my backlog, so I haven't played many 2009 releases, but it would be up there for me regardless. Great game. I've gotten Prototype from Goozex but have yet to start it, and Red Faction is still in my queue there, so for now inFAMOUS stands alone.
By the end of the year, though... LOTS of contenders to steal the crown. Brutal Legend, Heavy Rain, Scribblenauts, Modern Warfare 2, Uncharted 2, and Darksiders are all games I'm thinking of as potential Day 1 purchases. Is Assassin's Creed 2 supposed to come out in '09 or '10? What about Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time? The Last Guardian? (Pretty sure this one is 2010) I know there are others I'm forgetting. Makes it a bit easier to wait for 2010 games like God of War III and Alan Wake. What I really need is the time to play these games. :lol:
