KEY RULE: You MUST put a comment for one of the choices in your ballot, or your ballot will not be counted. Ideally you will put a comment for each game, but it is not necessary. But keep in mind that these are not meant to be list threads, but threads for discussion.
this is also a companion to the NeoGAF's Soundtracks of the 7th Generation Voting Thread, so be sure to check that out too!
a special request: please don't make preliminary lists or reserve spots. i do not have parser and i will not comb this thread a second time for updated posts unless they're pointed out to me.

GAF Games o' Gen 7 (360/PS3/Wii/DS/PSP and more) Voting Thread
oh boy, here we go
- List up to 10 games, in order from 1 to 10.
- Your list must have a minimum of three games to be counted.
- Add your thoughts! As with timetokill's threads, and the updated GOTY threads, I'll be using these in the awards thread. Plus, it's good reading.
- At least one of the games in your list must have a comment by you, or your entire ballot will be disqualified.
- You may list Honorable Mentions. These must be indicated by a ”x." in your ballot. You may have as many of these as you want.
- Non-numbered lists will assume the top vote is first place, then second, etc.
- Multiple votes for the same title will disqualify your entire ballot.
- Each user may only vote once, but you may edit your ballot as often as you like until the deadline. If you do make an edit, please PM me with your original list and your changed one.
- Games must have been first released in your region in this generation for them to count. You may also include imported titles.
- Ports, compilations, and remakes of games from previous generations may be included. This comes with the stipulation that ports in particular must have an explanation as to why they made your list beyond being a game you liked in a previous generation.
- Remakes of games from this generation cannot be the basis for a vote either (so no voting for The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess if your only experience with it is The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD).
