Top Games of the PS3 / Xbox 360 Generation

NFS: Shift is the best game the series has seen in recent years. But it's not quite as good as other games in the genre.
It seems that every few months a lower profile game comes along that knocks everyone back in their seat. DiRT is definitely one of those games.

Somewhere between chainsawing dudes in Gears of War and trying to beat Andrew's lap time in Forza 2, I became infected.
