It's a'me, Sesto

What is your GOTY? I don't care what he Spike VGAs will choose, or IGN, or whatever. I just want to know what you think the best game of 2012 was.

For fun, I'm going to nominate my "top 5" and choose one. Feel free to make your own top 5, or just post your favourite.

My nominations:

Diablo 3
Mass Effect 3
Assassin's Creed 3
Black Ops 2
Halo 4

And my GOTY award goes to... dun dun dun... MASS EFFECT 3! *cue mass effect theme music*

Anyways, Mass Effect 3, imo, was an amazing game. The story was absolutely amazing, and the gameplay was pretty good. I agree that the ending was sub-par, but the EC makes up for it. Besides, a crappy ending does not make a game crappy. 99% of the game was an exciting emotional roller coaster. ME3 probably goes in my top 5 games of all time.

Ninja Gaiden 3, Mass Effect 3, Resident Evil 6, or Halo 4.

Because those are the only games I got this year and plan on getting.

So...... NG3? ME3? RE6? H4???!?! NGMEREH3364!

I have every achievement for Halo 3 and Halo: Reach!

Halo 4 was very disappointing to me. Some of the things 343 did just ruined the multiplayer for me, and Spartan Ops is just meh.

Assassin's Creed III is really good. I love Conner, and that game has me coming back more than any other game this year, except for one. I can't say this is my GOTY though because Desmond's portion of the game was just as much of a letdown. I was really excited to see how Ubisoft would wrap of Desmond's story, and the way they did it keeps me from making ACIII my GOTY

Not Mass Effect 3 cause of the ending

The game I played most this year by far was Batman Arkham City GOTY edition. It came out in May, does that count? Probably not. So I guess I would give it to Borderlands 2

Far Cry 3 by the looks.

I be trippin'.

I'd say this year was kinda disappointing for me. The only game I cared about at all this year was AC3, and it pulled a Mass Effect 3 ending. I ended up getting Halo 4, and was actually pleasantly surprised with it, but it's no GOTY.

I'm gonna vote Skyrim DLC.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

The Walking Dead game or Spec Ops: The Line.

And from FOX, two phantoms were born.

So Says Shadroxon.

Borderlands 2.

A competitive players main goal is to win.
A casuals main goal is to have fun regardless of whether that results in a win or loss.
It has nothing to do with individual skill or knowledge, it has to do with the reason you play.

I'll say Borderlands 2 or The Walking Dead.

I haven't played a game this year that really compared with any of the nominations from last year.

Probably Assassin's Creed but it really doesn't deserve said title. SO MANY BUGS.

  • 12.01.2012 9:30 AM PDT

I'm your biggest fan!

I still need to play Far Cry 3. Other than that, nothing this year has been exceptional. Hopefully, with Bioshock Infinite and GTA V 2013 won't suck as bad as 2012 and 2011 have.
