Tekken 6… are you kidding me? Street Fighter is a much better fighting package in presentation, gameplay, graphics, everything! Even if you are completely new to the series (like me) it’s a classic that’s been updated to outmatch anything Tekken 6 has done!
I agree with the rest of the list though!

uncharted 2 best story?
you have to be kidding me!
the story in uncharted 2 had massive gaping holes in it, was boring, and had absolutely no depth to it what so ever.
heres a dagger lets go find a mythical lost city of gold.
how interesting!
batman AA
infamous.
ratchet and clank future a crack in time.
GTA liberty city stories.
ASSASSINS CRED 2
the saboteur.
resident evil 5.
bayonetta.
GOW collection.
ninja gaiden sigma 2.
these all had better stories than uncharted 2, especially assassins creed 2 no game has a better storyline than that, not even MGS4!
assassins creed 2 is based on past events and linking them to the assassins and templars, stating certain executions were done by the assassins to protect the world.
thats how in depth and advanced AC2s storyline is, you need to buy the guide or read it online to understand everything, its a massive conspiracy.
come on gaming bolt i know your a small site and need to put up crap like this to get hits, but lets at least keep it credible?
i mean seriously, might as well give rouge warrior best visuals while your at it.

Uncharted 2 definetly deserved to win all the awards it did. There really wasn’t anything quite like it this year. No other game came close.
