In 2009, we spent so much time putting together our retrospective of the last decade (click here for our "Best of the 2000s" series) that we almost forgot about all the memorable things that happened this year. Well, 2010 ain't here yet, so we're spending the last week looking back at all our favorite stuff, including albums, movies, girls, video games, sports moments, books, style trends, and websites. In the gaming world, '09 was the year of the sequel, with blockbuster titles like Uncharted 2 and Left 4 Dead 2 topping everyone's lists. But we've got much more in store, from the illest iPhone game to a "mature" Wii action game that actually doesn't suck. Look back on all our favorites with the Top 25 Video Games of 2009 countdown...
#25:Saw
GENRE: Action
DEVELOPER/PUBLISHER/PLATFORMS: Zombie/Konami/360,PS3,PC
RELEASE DATE: 10/6/2009
THE COMPLEX CO-SIGN: With all the Saw movies hitting theaters (what are they up to, like seven now?) it may seem like the series is getting a little played out. But don't sleep: Zombie and Konami created a video game that definitely breathes new life into the franchise. You wake up as Detective Tapp inside Jigsaw's abandoned insane asylum filled with booby traps and desperate people. Oh yeah—the key to survival is inside of you. Good luck getting out alive!
