1st Runner-up
Winners of the MyMedia Game of the Year Awards
What would have to be the most well-known and most advertised gaming franchise on the Xbox360, almost considered a crime not to own one of these games, especially the latest; Halo 3, the best 360 game on MyMedia of 2007, Making 3rd Place in the overall MyMedia Game of the Year Awards.
This is a game with a fairly good singleplayer, but the real magic truly lies in the multiplayer. Co-op, Online, Local play, everything. You will find any multiplayer futuristic experience you have ever looked for right here in Halo 3.
One of the most amazing multiplayer experiences you will ever have, whether it be with friends and family, or strangers you've never met around the world!
3rd Place
Sometimes all people need are shooters, and what better shooter to make then one based in our world? Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is the answer. Appearing on every platform except the Nintendo Wii it takes video game shooters to the next level.
The most intense battle of your life. Being a well paced story that doesn't get too ahead of itself nor become boring you will find your self at one stage using the cover of night to sniper enemies, then being out in the open at the middle of the day taking on full armies.
As far as games go they don't get much better then this. If you are looking for a great FPS this year and have one of the new-gen consoles, this is a great choice.
2nd Place
There has never been a way to quite describe how amazing it is to play a Super Mario game, and Super Mario Galaxy for the Nintendo Wii still gives that feeling. Better then the Gamecube Mario, it comes close to being equal to that of the Nintendo 64 game which took the world by storm.
Fly through space in 3 Dimensional Worlds on Spherical planets and solving puzzles. Fly through the cosmos and look at it's beauty.
Taking full advantage of the Wii's power, giving amazing graphics, control, Unbelievable Music, and some of the best, if not the Gameplay in the entire gaming enterprise, we are glad to give Super Mario Galaxy our MyMedia Award for Game of the Year, 2007.
1st Place
