A Vita version of a four year game? You do realise LBP Vita is actually a different game, not a port, right? The story is completely new, as are the characters, the costumes, and all the levels. Additionally, it has all that touch functionally and an updated level creator. It is in no way just a Vita version of a four year old game, it's entirely new, and I think it deserves the nomination.
Uh, Minecraft came out in 2011.
Unless you're talking about the 360 version, why that would be anyone's game of the year I don't know.

No Call of Duty ?
Faith in Humanity... well not restored, but recovered quite a bit there.
Still, a bit saddened Walking Dead is not on the list, Far Cry 3 might also deserve a spot there, maybe, still having a look at it myself. But that's about as far as my gripe with this list goes.

Maybe GW2 is at #1 because it's ~200-400+ hours of MMORPG gameplay, has a metric shit-ton of content, 8 unique professions, weekly/monthly events and all of this costs $60.
Again, $60.
Treat it like a singleplayer RPG game (forget that it's an MMO) and just do ONE playthrough, you'll still get at least 100+ hours of crazy RPG exploration fun.

I had no idea that a cheaper game is automatically better than a full price game. I guess they just wanted to diversify the list by adding an ARPG in there and couldn't think of a better distinguishable feature from TL2 and Diablo 3.
I'm also a little surprised that Borderlands 2 isn't in there at all because that's a solid game.

Not that I agree with everything here, but this is the best list I've seen so far. At this point, I can dig just about anything that doesn't put CoD at #1 automatically just because, even if it's only been out a week.
Anyhow, mine would be:
10) XCom: Enemy Unknown
9) Assassin's Creed 3
8) Borderlands 2
7) The Walking Dead
6) Journey
5) Minecraft
4) Mass Effect 3
3) Halo 4
2) Spec Ops: The Line
1) Dishonored

The list seems quite good. I haven't played all of the games on the list, and I disagree with some of the choices (I think that AC3 should not be on the list, and that if Halo 4 is on the list, which it may deserve to be, although I agree with it being low on the list, Borderlands 2 should be higher), but overall it seems well informed and realistic.
No Persona 4: Golden? Walking Dead? Journey?
How disappointing.
And, ummm..... Little Big Planet was released in 2008. Surely they mean Little Big Planet Vita or Karting?

I'm really surprised with how many people would put Mass Effect 3 on the top ten list for 2012. After all of the hate the game received for its ending I don't believe it deserves a place there regardless of how good the rest of the series was. To this day I still haven't reinstalled it on my computer after beating it the first time, and I rarely ever uninstall games.
I know they released an extended cut designed to made the ending less poorly written, but to me at least the damage was already done, and the one thing I trusted Bioware to do, write a good story, fell through.
