RPGamer’s Best of 2007 Awards

The editors at RPGamer have revealed their picks for the best role-playing games of 2007. While The Witcher took the top spot for PC and Mass Effect nabbed a few honorable mentions, a vast majority of the games picked are JRPGs. Anyway, here’s what they had to say about CD Projekt’s debut title:

Aside from MMORPGs, the PC does not get many RPGs anymore; well, good ones anyway. This year was an exception. PC gamers were very lucky to receive the long awaited CD Projekt game: The Witcher. A mature game on par with the Grand Theft Auto series and a dark atmosphere help make it a standout in any category and a veritable shining beacon for lost PC gamers.

The Witcher blends spectacular graphics and audio work with impressive cinematography and an engaging storyline. The world is large, the enemies numerous and the side quests interesting. There is little here not to enjoy, provided a gaming rig of sufficient power is used to play it. With all these traits, it is not difficult to see why it is this year’s PC RPG of the year!
