Nice article. I think the fact that Uncharted didn't make the list says a lot about the year we've had. 2009 was a great year in gaming, and this year is looking to be just as good, if not better!

I should really proofread before I post. ^^;
At the end of my post I meant to say, "I can only imagine how much more there can be", but instead of "much" I typed "many". Oh well whatever, great article. I've never heard of this Flower game, and it looks interesting, so I'm definitely going to have a look into that.

Wasn't Left 4 Dead 2 universally critically panned as not living up to its predecessor? In all honestly I haven't played it so am not fit to judge it, but Uncharted 2 is one of my favourite games ever, so I find it hard to believe readers picked L4D2 over U2. Aussie's do like an underdog however and no doubt assumed everyone else would be voting for uncharted ala Ricki Lee on Australian Idol a few years back. Anyway I guess its just the opinions of a select few and is not representative of the mojority.

The original post that asked for a paragraph on our favorite game, did suggest something along the lines of thinking outside the square (otherwise everyone probably would have typed "Uncharted 2"   ).

So really the title should be PALGN Reader "Alternate" Game of the Year Awards 2009.
And IHateFrasierCrane, your right about those cans.

Still no NSMB?
Was there a mass wipeout of taste in the world I somehow missed?

I don't even know what thread it was, so nah.
And besides, complaining about things is way cooler than actually doing something about it.

My post made this article. woot.  Buy PVZ its very fun! I spent 50+ hours on it.
The thread on it is here:
http://palgn.com.au/viewtopic.php?t=45659
it asked for unique games so I posted something else that the OP asked for... because it deserved the attention
however:
Uncharted 2 is my game of the year/generation so far.
