Orange Box isn't a game, it's 5 different games.

Fail.  Orange Box should count as one game, since the 5 games come in one box, and all the major sites and magazines voted it as one game.

So my vote is:

1-Orange Box (sorry, but it counts as one game, you don't split Mario Party into 40 games)
2-Cod4
3-Crysis
4-Bioshock
5-World in Conflict
But it's 5 games in one. Exactly. Mario Party is different, you can't buy those games separately.

Half Life 2 and Half Life 2 Episode 1 were all separate. TOB is basically just a bundle. You could have loved Portal but hate TF2, making it odd to choose TOB as the best game of the year.

And in addition, GameInformer did have TOB as one game but in the game of the year voting, their staff would also pick Portal or Ep 2.
I understand what you say, but in this case they made a wonderful pack, and it's the best game of the year, although it's 5 games in one.  And who could hate Portal or TF2?

Me.  The number of people that I usually play BF2 and 2142 with has decreased because of TF2.

Its 5 seperate games on steam.  Its a bundle pack.  The fact that you can buy CoD1, the UO expansion, and CoD2 in one box doesnt make it all one game.

kk, heres my official list :

1. Call of Duty 4
2. Team Fortress 2
3. Portal
4. Mass Effect
5. Halo 3

Do mods count? If so, I will add BF2 AIX


FYI: You have HL2: E2 listed twice in your totals!

No, mods don't count. And thanks for pointing that out!

Tallies updated from this point up. Also, nominations will end January 2nd, 10 PM EST. I'll have the specific topics put into different threads when voting comes.
