Game of the Year for 2008

There were some OK games that came out last year, and some games that might eventually aspire to being OK when they're patched enough that came out last year, and there was the usual mixed assortment of games that were downright awful that came out last year.  But I think you and I can both admit that 2008 was a distinctly subprime year for computer wargames, and that there were no outstanding games in 2008 at all.

So, without further ado, I can declare the winner for 2008 is:  No award in 2008.

Honourable (if that's the word) mentions could go to a number of distinctly average runner up games, but as none of them rose above the three star level I don't think I'll bother bestowing any more dignity on them than they currently rightly possess.

Roll on 2009!
