Very solid choices, as usual. Congratulations to all the winners. The list of 27 solid nominees is also a good counter argument to the perennial cries that “20XX was the weakest year ever for new games!” I don’t love every game on the list, but it is an awfully tasty menu to choose from. Thanks, Spielfrieks! Posted by David Lund on Jun 16, 2010 at 10:18 AM | #
