It is time for our annual end of the year awards celebration here at MonsterVine.

Throughout this week, the MonsterVine staff will be revealing their picks for the best games released in 2008. Join us for the celebration as we bring everything together and wrap things up for this year.

The staff has poured alot of time and energy into converging as a whole to discuss our picks and the reasoning for them. And the process of reaching a consensus was a long and arduous one, so please be considerate if you disagree [as in being respectful], we don’t want our celebration to erupt into a flamefest. In our process of selecting games, the staff were given broad instructions that were ultimately incorporated into each respective person’s writing. Therefore, there is not a hard format nor a need for a templete. These were the instructions given:

- All games selected were released in the calendar year of 2008.
- Each pick needs to be explained.
- Choices can be repeated among various categories.
- Platform picks did not neccessarily have to include games exclusive to that platform.
