They are one of the reasons why gaming is bridging the gaps between movies and games. Play this game and you are watching one of the most mind blowing hollywood movies. That is the level of motion capture that the developers have implemented and this is the reason why Heavy Rain wins this award by some margin.</p></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">Best Lip Syncing: Enslaved Odyssey to the West</h3>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Best Cut scenes: Starcraft 2</h3>

The game will play with your mind, in better words, you are not playing the game, the game will play you, force you to do things that you will do in real life. Again a tough choice, but a gem like Heavy Rain should get the recognition it deserves.</p></div>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">PSP Game of the Year: Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker</h3>
<div id="attachment_17174" style="width: 323px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://gamingbolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/42.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-17174" class="size-full wp-image-17174 " title="MGS PW TPPSPcoversheet10-1" src="https://gamingbolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/42.jpg" alt="" width="313" height="385" srcset="https://gamingbolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/42.jpg 313w, https://gamingbolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/42-243x300.jpg 243w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 313px) 100vw, 313px" /></a><p id="caption-attachment-17174" class="wp-caption-text">Well again a very tough category for us to choose from, But Peace Walker beats out Ghost of Sparta on two counts.

Mass Effect 2 is our Game of the Year 2010. If you are surprised than you need to play the game...if you are mad at us you need to play the game...if you agree with us you need to play the game. In whatever scenario you need to experience Bioware&#39;s best game ever. Mass Effect has set the bar too high. It will be interesting to see how Bioware betters it with Mass Effect 3. So again, Mass Effect 2 is GamingBolt&#39;s Game of the Year 2010. And now what is the next game I have to play?</p></div>
