Uhh... I loved all of these games equally.

Stranger's Wrath. Really weird and fun
FF13. I played this after 13-2 so maybe that's why I don't hate it.
Far Cry 2. That shit was harder than Dark Souls.
MGS HD Collection. Peace Walker is amazing.
A crapload of PS2 games: Persona 4, FF10, DQ8, Okami and KH2
Some gamecube games: Wind Waker and Tales of Symphonia
Xenogears and FF9 for PSX

Man I played a lot of old games this year...

Bioshock

What an awesome game. The atmosphere, characters, gameplay were all great. Although the gunplay could have been a bit more polished, it still managed to get into my top 5 favourite games.

Paper Mario, the original on N64. The graphics are gorgeous, even today, the combat is really satisfying, the dialogue is funny... all I could ask for in an RPG.

I didn't get to play The World Ends with You until this year. Same with FFVII, but I haven't finished that one yet.

So my GOTYTDCOTY is TWEWY.

I played Planescape for the first time this year so that.

Not sure if it beats my GOTY though, I'll have to mull this over

Without a doubt it's Dark Souls.
I got it this summer and it has become one of my favourite games of all time.
Stellar gameplay, a great atmosphere and a wonderful design.

1. Witcher 2. Best RPG I've played in years. Yes it was a bit grimdark, but its world of politics and scheming and shades of grey is what I THOUGHT I was getting with DA:O, instead of "Orc stand-ins attack, plucky heroes must stop them".

2. Anno 2070. Builder/strategy title with staggering depth. Absolute time vortex. I can't recall how many times I ran around like a chicken with its head cut off, setting up complex supply chains and graduating part of of my city only to unlock five more supply chains and a host of needs. Real breath of fresh air in an age where everything seems to be getting streamlined.

3. Saints Row 3. Horribly juvenile to the point of being puerile, yet its so unabashedly stupid it soars right past offensive into fun. Everything handles well, the game looks good and runs beautifully, and there's a surprising amount of content on offer.

The Witcher 2 by miles, that game was amazing. (Admittedly its not that old but still)
Same here. I began playing through The Witcher on December 2011, and The Witcher 2 in April 2012. Both of them are great. I liked the first a bit more though.

Deus Ex - Never has a game caused my jaw to drop that hard.
Rayman Origins - What a beautiful game.
The Witcher 2 I can't think of anything to say for this one.

this game is still in closed beta, but it's not "released" yet, so it still counts since it's release to the public is set in january 2013, so Path of Exile ^^

Oh, definitely metal gear solid 3. That game is a masterpiece.

I played far more new to me games that didn't come out in 2012 this year, than 2012 games, so I might be forgetting some.

Games that I played this year that didn't come out this year that is my game of the year?! Oh, without the shadow of a doubt...


The first time I played this game was when it was given to me free as a 3DS download and I eventually bought a cart from an independent retailer. It's a pain in the ass to play admittedly but beating the game is among my most satisfying experiences as a player.

Er Primal probably by default I mean it was quite fun except for the horrid combat or MVC2 every other game I have played has come out this year or in the majority of cases a few years ago but I have played them before.

My game of the year that hasnt come out over here yet is P4 arena yes my most looked forward to game of the year happens to be the only region locked PS3 game in existence with no word of a EU release yet I dont know why they just dont unlock it now its served its purpose. They are just doing themselves over now way to shoot yourself in the foot.

Wonder how many people are going to complete a game tomorrow to post something here.
