The editorial staff at MMORPG.com has made their decisions, and today they continue to unveil the winners of the 2009 MMORPG.com awards by naming our Best New Game of 2009.
The Winner: Aion
This year's Best New Game has the distinction of having been released and thriving in another market before making its way to the ravenous gamers of the West. While normally games launch in the North American market, are improved and then released in other markets, this year's winner had the benefit and hindsight of having been released in the East before hitting our local Best Buys.
For those who might not have guessed, MMORPG.com's New Game of 2009 is NCsoft's Aion. On the surface, Aion is one of the most graphically impressive MMORPGs created to date, sporting visuals that are thus far unmatched in the MMO genre. In creating Aion, the game's developers took existing concepts and conventions of gameplay and added interesting aspects like the game's flight system to give it its own flavor.
While an argument can certainly be made that the game is by no means perfect or ideal, it has nonetheless earned its place at the top of this year's 50 freshly released MMOs.
