The most hyped game of the year, “Halo 3,” was finally released for Xbox 360. While it had new weapons and was balanced differently, what mattered most was the fact that the epic story was finally complete.

While the PlayStation 3 got some exclusive games, almost all of PS3′s exclusives were available for the Xbox 360, leaving gamers wondering why they should invest in a system with games they could get on a cheaper console.

The Wii may be pushed as a console for the casual gamer, but Nintendo hasn’t forgotten its longtime fans.

Wii had two of its major first-party releases this fall, which proved to be two of the best games on the console.

“Metroid Prime 3: Corruption” completed the trilogy and added first-person-shooter motion controls.

Also, “Super Mario Galaxy” impressed by presenting innovative gameplay with its manipulation of gravity in space and the motion control attacks.

We’re living in an exciting time for video games when developers aren’t content to let certain games have the sole stock in a genre.

Gamers today have more options than ever before.

The game industry is changing so fast, and games always are seeking movie-quality presentation and storyline.
