I pick Half-life 2. I thought it pushed the level of immersion in games to a whole new, umm...leve. Yay for gravity. Too bad it didn't have the same enemy AI as Farcry. Then I would have raved way more. I'm sure a game that combines both the physics of HL2 with the AI of Farcry will blindside us sometime in 2005.
Half-life 2 also gets my vote because they, unlike Farcry and Doom3, didn't forget about the little guy with the mid-range system. It runs great on my Athlon 2600XP/ Ati Radeon 9200.
