I felt like given the scope of the campaign and the variables, Treyarch actually gave this one their all. (I don't play the Multiplayer or the zombies.) The last few years I didn't think so, but this one was actually pretty damn good.

Studies show that men think about sex every 7 seconds. I do my best to eat hotdogs in under 6, just so things don't get weird.

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.

No, neither did Halo 4.

BO2 did have surprisingly good campaign though.

Best FPS.

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

Best FPS.
But Far Cry 3.

Best something... Surely...

Best attempt.

Take me into your heart! Accept me as your savior! Nail me to the -blam!- cross, and let me be reborn!

Yeah. Best multiplayer for sure. For me, the game is an absolute blast. Could be a contender for best FPS and best villain too.

Meteor Doggy, Internet Scallywag.

The BOII campaign was balls-to-the-wall in your face, not giving a care. It knew it was over the top, and it totally embraced that attitude. All the characters have gravelly voices, and are all hardened badasses, and the admiral is just beautifully over done.

I loved the campaign. It didn't take itself serious at all.

Zombies was excellent, with a new gamemode and was incredibly entertaining. Sure, Treyarch did introduce a few new things for the multiplayer, but they didn't take in all the crazy, and awesome things from the campaign.

But at the end of the day, it is still just another Call of Duty. Imo, the best CoD since CoD4 by a good stretch; but if you think that this will pull in gamers that didn't enjoy previous titles. It won't.

Far Cry 3 as best FPS? I don't think so. It's a fun action/adventure game, for sure. And most def deserves an award. It's truly one of the best games I've played since Skyrim came out.

Well all it has to do to be Best FPS is be better than all the other ones that came out this year, and it does that.

Oh Yes!

Apparently it won the XBOX 360 game of the year award on IGN. I'm fine with it.

  • 12.31.2012 1:59 PM PDT

Yeah simply for topping Modern Warfare 3. Everyone knows that Modern Warfare 3 is the best yet this somehow managed to top Black Ops 1 which was -blam!- so I like Black Ops 2. It's sexy finally upgraded graphics (who thinks that the graphics of Modern Warfare 3 was the same as Modern Warfare 2??? I do...). Hell yeah it deserved an award for it's Black Ops 2 and I doubt that they can top this with Modern Warfare 4 so yeah I think that Black Ops 2 deserved an award, definitely... But I much prefer Assassin's Creed III but at least the multiplayer of Black Ops 2 is better than Assassin's Creed III's -blam!- multiplayer even if it's -blam!- campaign which is worse than even Modern Warfare 3 and it's -blam!- Zombies mode isn't. But Black Ops 2 had a damn fine multiplayer even if I have gotten bored of that now, so there's that...

Yeah, Black Ops 2 deserved an award...

Far Cry 3 did everything better in my opinion.

I thought that was Halo 4. There was a long thread on it full of butthurt Halo 4 haters. It was hard to miss.

  • 12.31.2012 2:15 PM PDT

Hmmm, I don't know what to say...

It already got Game of the Year in 2007, so no, I don't think so. They all play the same when it comes down to the core mechanics.

Why Bungie, why would you do this?! - Halo Community

It deserves something. Personally I wish there were some more zombies maps from the start. The bots were very enjoyable.
