Best Games of '06

Written by: Josh M., Senior Editor – Posted: Tue Jan 2nd, 2007

So many systems, so little time (and money): 2006 shaped up to be one of the most competitive years in gaming history, bringing back fond memories on the SNES vs. Genesis heyday, where the only true winner was the consumer.

New systems flourished on launch (Wii) while others flubbed a bit (PS3); old systems showed some new tricks (Final Fantasy XII for PS2) while others are coming into full bloom nicely (Xbox 360's strong lineup). Even the major handhelds (Nintendo DS, PSP and Gameboy Advance) were bouting, offering up dozens of quality titles between them.

Once the dust settled and the year came to a close, only one fact was certain: In the gaming world, the customer always wins. The following games defined their respective systems in 2006, from next-gen sports to motion-sensitive swordplay and beyond.

I am so addicted to guitar hero 2. It is my fav game for ps2. When
it comes to old school..SNES my fav is Donkey Kong and Super Mario
World. I miss donkey kong...:(. I need to buy it.
i like hammy goes nuts but thats my opinion
I love Donkey Kong series in SNES!
My husband is like 80-something hours into Final Fantasy XII. He's
been playing it a couple hours at a time since he got it in early
December. It's such an involved game!
As far as platform games go, Super Mario will always be the best.
I can never find Tetris when I'm out. They're constantly sold out.
However I barely touch the DS now that we have the Wii.

I heard Trauma Center on the Wii was terrible so I never bought
it, maybe I can rent it and check it out.
