Now that 2012 is almost over...

[Sassafrass]

1. The Walking Dead - This should surprise no one who know me. XD
2. Sleeping Dogs - A game that was pure arcadey fun for me.
3. ME3 - A great game to end a great trilogy. Ending was a little iffy but still a great game.

Honourable mentions go out to Far Cry 3, Borderlands 2 and Trails Evolution as well.

[Deverfro]

wow...I've played nothing that came out this year.......

Yeah, It's been a bit of an off year.

Yeah, nothing really tickled my fancy this year, I seem to have been playing NGC and PS2 classics or 2011 releases I never got around too. Which is awesome things like Rayman or Persona 4 have been tonnes of fun!

[Get_A_Grip_]

Okay, here we go.

The Walking Dead
Torchlight II
Mark of the Ninja

Yeah, screw AAA games this year.

 

[Sack of Cheese]

Dragon's Dogma.
Kingdoms of Amalur.
Darkness 2.

Those are the 3 games of 2012 that i've enjoyed the most and clocked the most hours in.

I finished The Darkness 2 in under 6 hours. It's amazing, but doesn't have much replayability.
How do you clock that many hours into it?

 

[mateushac]

-XCOM: Enemy Unknown

-Crusader Kings 2

-FTL: Faster than Light (Maybe I could pick Rayman Origins instead)

 

[Brotha Desmond]

1) XCOM: Enemy unknown
2) Mass effect 3
3) Minecraft Xbox 360 edition

 

[Brotha Desmond]

-Skyrim

Skyrim was 2011.

 

[Kungfu_Teddybear]

In no particular order:

Far Cry 3
Mass Effect 3
Borderlands 2

And the honorable mention goes to Sleeping Dogs.

 

[Owlslayer]

1) The Walking Dead

I mean, sweet Jebus, was that an experience. Loved it so much.

2) Spec Ops: The Line.

Oh god, i did not expect the game to go that-a-way. It was so very dark, but i liked it, since it did something very interesting.

3) A tie between Osu! and Harvey's New Eyes. Osu! wasn`t really released this year, but i found it this year, and I´ve been quite addicted to it. Fun stuff. And Harvey`s New Eyes, i liked a lot, as well. It was dark, but funny and charming.

So, yeah. That`s 2 point and click games on my top 3 list. Interesting, since i haven`t played any point and click games for quite the while before those two, i think. But it was a good year, lots of great games that unfortunately i can`t put on my list. But that doesn`t mean they weren`t great.

I really enjoyed it and I can't actually put my finger on why.

I played it through quite a few times, playing through it again at the moment to be fair, and it hasn't got old yet.

Strange really considering i'm not usually a big fan of shooters.

 

[Grey_Focks]

1)XCOM: Enemy Unknown

2)Mass Effect 3

3)Guild Wars 2

Honorable mentions going to Far Cry 3, Halo 4, Chivalry: Medieval Warfare, Planetside 2, Starhawk and Torchlight 2.
EDIT- aaaand I forgot both DOTA 2 and Spec Ops: The Line. Both worthy of mention, but the top 3 goes unchanged. Though ME3 and GW2 are pretty interchangeable for their order.

Yea, really good year, overall. And there are quite a few games like Walking Dead and Dishonored that I haven't played yet that I fully expect to atleast be worth mentioning. Also, just got Guardians of Middle Earth, and haven't quite played it enough to judge, yet, but that's probably worthy of mention, too.

 

[C4tt4nn4]

1. Mass effect 3
2.Skyrim/Oblivion (going to pretend that those can be counted as one game)
3.the saboteur.

I know most of these didn't come ou this year, but they were still pretty good.

 

[N3squ1ck]

Singleplayer:
1st place: Faster than light
2nd place: Hotline Miami
3rd place: Dishono(u)red


Multiplayer:

[flying_whimsy]

I've barely played any new games this year (spent my money grabbing older titles like Dragon Age: Origins and Fallout 3 and clearing out my back log), but that said my top 3 are probably:

1) Primordia; just came out but I absolutely love it. I haven't played an adventure game this good since The Longest Journey

2) Dead or Alive 5; I was stunned at just how good they made this one. Graphically much better with a much smarter AI and a well-implemented learning curve and story mode. Still got ridiculously harder at higher difficulty levels, though.

3) Angry Birds Space; I was thrilled with the new gravity mechanics and have gotten a lot of enjoyment out of the game.

Honorable Mentions: SOL: Exodus, Black Mesa, and probably Street Fighter X Mega Man when it comes out.
