Hottest PC Games for the 2010 Holiday Season

This year’s holiday shopping season is looking to be a great one for PC gamers as game developers bring out their latest wares and graphics cards manufacturers battle it out to deliver the best performing piece of hardware on the market. With just a few weeks left before Christmas, it’s likely you or someone on your shopping list are already looking forward to spend some quality time indoors playing the hottest titles on your computer.

Game release dates tend to change a lot during their development, and unfortunately some titles that were meant to be here already have been pushed to next year. We know it’s hard to keep up with these changes, so we’ve gone ahead and listed what we believe are the hottest games on the PC this holiday season.

Naturally, this list is subjective, but we hope it will allow you to choose wisely when shelling out your hard earned cash. We set our focus on games released during the last quarter of 2010, but inevitably we couldn’t resist including a few slightly older titles that deserve your attention in case you skipped them earlier on.

  1. so many good games so little money to buy them .

    i really want to try the new NFS and some shooters. btw DeathSpank looks interesting and it is also cheap. i'll try the demo first.

  2. Only 3 of these games I'm interested in, Fable 3, Medal of Honor and Need For Speed Hot Pursuit but Need For Speed I would probably want on PS3 =/

    I think 2011 will be a brilliant year for games and films, hope tesselation get's used alot.

  3. BLACK OPS, i was very hesitant at purchasing it since its 60 bucks even for the PC version (which I got) after I heard they patched I was at GameStop buying the game XD some of the games on the list I havent even heard off but maybe i would try sometime, my favorite is abviuosly black ops anyone who got the chance to play the wager match(it is amazing) i like cuz everyone is balanced...

  4. Some of them are not that hot.

    Some other titles to include: nail'd, Battlefield: Bad Company 2 - Vietnam, World of Warcraft: Cataclysm,

    Serious Sam 3. Just to name a few.

  5. haha deathspank is so much fun.

  6. haha deathspank is so much fun.

  7. I just can't wait for Cata. The leadup to it is making me NUTS!

    Besides that, I was so disappointed with FFXIV (So glad it didn't make the list, it doesn't even deserve to call itself a PC game) that I'm seriously rooting for Bliz come this year's ironic release date.
