2007 will be remembered as the year next-generation gaming came into its own. A veritable avalanche of quality software kept the Xbox 360 in stiff competition with Nintendo's upstart Wii, which is still in great part riding on the mammoth mindshare of Wii Sports.

Here are their picks: WIRED's Top 10 Games of 2007
