What is the best game you've played in 2011? MW3 The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim Batman: Arkham City Portal 2 Uncharted Gears of War3 MK9 Deadspace 2 (scared the piss out of me) Rage Killzone 3 Bulletstorm etc? What single game did you enjoy teh most from all the consoles, tell me why, tell me the title, etc there is a 99% I heard of it. Mine was either GoW3 or Skyrim... prolly Skyrim... because it is so vast you never beat it, and even though GoW3 is fun to play, you beat it fairly quickly even though it has multiplayer you can't play it hours on end like you can play skyrim hours on end.

I CAN'T CHOOSE!!!

Seriously though, how can I pick between games like Batman Arkham City, Rayman Origins, and The Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword? All three have obviously been crafted with absolute devotion ond care. All three have superb and clever level design as well as brilliant and pitch perfect controls. I'm quite serious when I say that these three are probably the best of this whole gen

in terms of games ive played for the first time in 2011, i can definitely say limbo. however, im not sure which 2011 new release id pick between portal 2, skyward sword, or dark souls. im playing skyrim right now and i wouldnt be surprised at all if thats in the mix too. its just been a really good year for gaming.

It's a toss up between L.A. Noire and Batman.

I suppose I can't take your opinion away with my own opinion... but you can't change my mind: I played skyward, it was horrible

its just one of those games. even with the additional cutscenes, skyward sword has a respect for gameplay (something that it shares with portal 2 and dark souls in their own ways). most of the narrative points that drive link from one place to another are openly there just to service the gameplay. there arent many missions in the game that absolutely needed to be in there to tell tale of link and zelda. its about the journey rather than the destination and the journey is always changing and either developing previous ideas or adding new ones for variety.

  • Crysis 2 - loved the campaign, wanna get back into it's multiplayer. enjoyed it a lot actually.
  • inFamous 2 - could not put it down when i started playing it.
  • Deus Ex : Human Revolution - loved it.
  • Batman : Arkham City - personal GOTY contender
  • Battlefield 3 - great graphics on PS3 (did not say best, but it does look really nice) and i do love the multiplayer
  • Uncharted 3 : Drake's Deception - honostly, i really loved it, best one in the series i feel.
  • Portal 2 - great adventure and story, improves upon the first one on many levels.

Games i'm currently playing through...

  • Legend of Zelda : Skyward Sword
  • Elder Scrolls V : Skyrim

I've gotten further into Skyrim, have not yet started on Skyward Sword yet. I was initially really not looking forward to Skyrim and i'm happy to see my fears were misplaced. Really... i found Oblivion to be an absolute bore, of all the big AAA fantasy games, i found Oblivion to be the epitome of Generic Fantasy.

Skyward Sword has to be the one Zelda game since Ocarina of Time that i have greatly been looking forward too. The more i saw of SS the more i got interested about it.

Just to name a few...some of my favorite games for this year are Saints Row: The Third, AC Revelations, Batman: AC, for instance. These games really surprise me. I plan on playing through L.A. Noire this week and Bulletstorm is a great game. I have been laying low with Skyrim for awhile, but I am going to jump back into it with a brand-new character and go from there...

Hmm, for me it's a toss up between

Arkham City

Portal 2

Skyrim

So far I put most time into Arkham City, so I'll go with that.
