The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
Though it is relatively unchallenges, Oblivion is such an incredible game that it is a thoroughly deserving winner of the Best RPG title. With hundreds of hours of excellent gameplay, the few tiny glitches can easily be ignored.

Though other RPGs were released, there were none that stood out. Folklore is perhaps the only other worthy mention
In a lean year for racing games, Motorstorm is triumphant, with extremely good visuals and solid racing. The crashes can get a little tedious, but they certainly show what the physics engine can do.

Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction
The carefully pitched ambient themes and orchestra-accentuated story sequences each combine to make one of the best original scores for any game ever. Ratchet Future is a clear winner for the best score of 2007.

Escaping from pirates, uncovering lost treasure, fighting off zombies... well, with the exception of that last part, it's standard stuff but brilliantly portrayed in Uncharted, a game with one of the most interesting stories around.
The story in Uncharted is pretty strong, but the game owes much of this success to the voice actors that bring strong characters such as Nathan Drake to life. It was a close call with COD 4, but Uncharted is a worthy winner.
Though it's a simple concept, there are a million different things that can happen during a game of Calling All Cars! provided you're sat with freieds.
