Couple of tricky choices in there but for me SMG was unquestionably game of the year. And when I say 'tricky choices' I mean 'gash competition'. Or to put it another way, second on my 'top racing game' for the year would've been Sonic & Sega All Star Racing. Or Super Mario Kart on VC if I were allowed it.

BONUS CATEGORIES:

Best Type of Bacon (Crispy or Chewy) Crispy

*edit*

I forgot about FF13. That's one of the worst RPGs I've ever played, so easily the biggest disappointment this year. I would rather play Eternal Eyes than FF13.

Changed best graphics to Yakuza 3. God of War 3 was a mistake. While God of War has high quality textures, the graphics aren't varied and most of every area is extremely repetitive. Yakuza 3 has slightly worse but still high quality textures yet the areas are all unique and extremely detailed.


Most Overlooked/Under Appreciated Title Half-Minute Hero

Half Minute Hero came out last year. Amazing game though and definitely definitely is the most overlooked that year.
