The Top Ten

Super Mario Galaxy

This deserves first place! Call of Duty was definitely a great game, but it does not come close to how mind-blowing SMG was.
Diverse levels, a gameplay mechanic that never gets old, amazing presentation. Super Mario Galaxy was a gem that will never get old. Until you play the sequel...

Best gameplay, graphics, sound, and overall the best video game of the decade. Easily game of the year 2007. My second choice would be Halo 3.

Amazing story, perfect gameplay, and all-around beautiful scenery.
BioShock
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

Great online, great story, great gameplay. Overall, the greatest COD there is!

This is the best Call of Duty ever made.
Halo 3

The greatest multiplayer game released in 2007. It broke record after record, expectation after expectation. It was amazing.
God of War II
Mass Effect
Super Paper Mario

This game was amazing. Even though the concept is dark, it did it in a good way that improves the storyline, just like what they did with Majora's Mask. Much better than the poor-quality Paper Mario games Nintendo is putting out now.

Even though it wasn't an RPG, it was still incredibly fun to play. It also had the darkest story in almost every Mario game (except maybe Partners in Time).
The Orange Box

I've only ever played Portal, but if the other two games in the box are half as good as Portal, it deserves to be number one.

I've experiments to run. There is research to be done on the people who are still alive! The game was amazing.

One of the best game value deals out there. And that was when it was new. Go buy it now!
Portal

Amazing puzzle game that became another franchise Valve can't count to three in.
Assassin's Creed

The Newcomers

?
Crysis

This was an incredible FPS game from 2007. It featured amazing, high-quality visuals, a fun and unique arsenal of weapons and abilities, and an engaging premise that led to a captivating campaign. I highly recommend it!

Guilty Gear XX Accent Core

The Contenders

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune
Guitar Hero 3

Arguably the best in the Guitar Hero series and one of the greatest rhythm games of all time.

Even though Rock Band is better, this game is still a must-have for music fans everywhere.
Mario Strikers Charged

Great follow-up to Super Mario Strikers, this took the already rule-breaking game of strikers and shattered it with superpowers, stage hazards, and the brutalizing of opponents. Plus, you could customize your team layout even more than the first game.
Rock Band
Team Fortress 2

Hats, shooting, hats, conga, hats, Valve, and last but not least, HATS.
Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
The Simpsons Game
Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction
WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2008
Mario Party 8
Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games
The Legend Of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass

It's the only Legend of Zelda on this list, so even if I haven't played, I'm going to choose it!
Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga
Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3
Medal of Honor: Airborne
