While I can’t say that I’ve played every game that was released in 2011, I have played more games this year than any other. A lot of my time was spent playing games released in 2010, so it’s hard for me to separate the two years. That being said, I’ll be catching up on Mega Release Fall well into 2012 so next year won’t be much different. Colefacekilla’s Top 6 Games of the Year 2011 Portal 2 Uncharted 3: Drake’s [...]

Joshleedotcom’s Games of the Year 2011

You know it’s been a good year for video games when you’ve got sequels to 2009 GOTY winners sitting in shrink wrap on your shelf. I’ve spent less time bitching about bad games this year than any other. That’s not to say that there weren’t plenty of crappers, but I was just too busy having a great time with dozens of quality titles. I might not have played everything, but from the games I did, the following were my personal [...]

2011 was a much better year for me than 2010. I learned how to use Twitter, I got to go to PAX, there were a crap-load of really great games and I met my future wife. (Author’s Note: that list was not arranged in any particular order of importance like the one below, for the record). I also learned that while some games can make phoenix-like returns to awesomeness after a decade, other games should just stay dead. I learned that [...]

I’m not going to lie. It’s damn hard to choose only ten games to gush about this year. A lot of great games have been released in these past twelve months and a large handful were able to rock my eyeballs to their very cores. I’ve had a lot of time immersing myself into many unique game worlds and my experiences all feel like winners. Instead of throwing an immature fit about life being unfair (because it is), I’ll follow [...]

The definitive games of the year, but only one can win. The Nominees Bastion – Small teams aren’t supposed to be able to provide thought-provoking, polished game experiences. Bastion will be impossible to forget for action RPG fans while other gamers found themselves engrossed by the incredible story narration and beautiful visuals of a world on the edge of destruction. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword – The bar has been set quite high for Zelda games, and as Skyward [...]

Overwhelming odds tend to be the standard in gaming, so having a couple of well equiped buddies to back you up is never a bad thing. Douchebags need not apply, these games need teamwork…save your individuality for hipster parties and art school. The Nominess Gears of War 3 - The Gears series has been known for being one of the few games that features a 2 player co-op mode that doesn’t seem tacked on, but Gears of War 3′s 4 player [...]

The 2011 Grimmys: Story of the Year

We’ve reached a point where a video game can get by on story alone, regardless of any other features. That these stories happen to be interactive make them all that more interesting for gamers. The Nominees Bastion – The Kid wakes up and from the start is surrounded by destruction and unanswered questions. Constantly pushed forward to try and repair the Bastion piece by piece in hopes that the world can be saved. The Kid is faced with a truly [...]
