Blend Games lists some of the more original games released throughout 2009, including Scribblenauts, Shattered Horizon, Dragon Age and a few well known and lesser known titles.

"...it only makes sense to pay a little respect to a few of the games that may not have fit within some of the ubiquitous standard-fare categories. That doesn't mean you won't see some familiar names on this list but you might see a few unexpected games as well. So here's an unofficial list of some of the most original games of 2009."

          Apart from Braid, it's probably one of the highest rated PSN games on the PS3. I intend to purchase it myself.

    Dragon Age Origins was a fantastic game, but original? Not really.

      I was thinking that. And Forza. And Mario Bros.

        I was reading some of the comments on the page and someone actually tries to defend Forza 3 saying you don't need to pay for all the extra content, thus making it "original".

        ...I fail to see the logic. There are few, if any, games on the list that are original.

      DA wasn't supposed to be original. That's why it was so good.

        Indeed.

        That still doesn't explain why it was on the list though XD

    Missing a few games...as mentioned above me, Flower? Plus some of those games are just improvements on old archetypes...not original...

    How is Forza 3 original? Gran Turismo has been doing the racing sim genre since the PS1 days, so how is Forza 3 considered original? In fact how could a racing simulator in general be original?

    How the hell is the new Mario on Wii original at all? All it has is the Co-Op. It's just a reboot of the DS version(Which i have) which also has 3D graphics >.>

    New Super Mario Bros Wii = Crappier Version of Super Mario World/Super Mario Bros. 3 = Original?

    I don't think so.

    Scribblenauts and Shattered Horizon are definitely good choices, anyway...

    New Super Mario Bros & Forza 3 aren't original, Dragon Age doesn't look it either
