Sound off: 2010 games you're still playing, News from GamePro

With the next few weeks having few blockbuster releases, many gamers have a prime opportunity to play through last year's backlog. Our Twitter community chimes in with the games they're planning on playing.

While a few great lower-key games have come out over the first few days of 2010, the year won't officially kick into high gear until EA launches Dead Space 2 at the end of the month. For now, we're left wondering which games people will satiate their appetite with. Here's the question we posed to our 24,000-plus Twitter followers:

One game seemed to land on more lists than the rest of the crowd. Given its incredible depth and critical acclaim in 2010, it should come as no surprise that people are still dying for this game:
