For being "THE YEAR FOR GAMING" there have been plenty of let downs already this year. With that...

What is your favorite game so far this year?

Mine has to be Call of Pripyat Complete.

That's too bad. i consider that to be one of my disappointments, but i only played the campaign so if the multiplayer was good than i cant speak for that.

It would have to be between Bulletstorm (Xbox 360) and Tactics Orge (PSP).

I'm not sure that counts. because others have had the potential to play them last year. so it's not fair to the games that came out this year to be comparing them to any year you want.

The only game I bought that was released this year was LBP2 so Iobviouslyhave to go with that. Do plan on buying Portal 2 soon so that may change.

The Dream Machine Chapter 2 (waiting for episodes 3-5)

DoDonPachi Dai-Fukkatsu Black Label

Yakuza 4 was pretty awesome, and there's a possibility I'd consider it my favorite or one of my favorites.

BUT, for the time being I just got a closed beta invite that I've been waiting for - for nearly 3 years - for Black Prophecy, and so far it's been AWESOME. First MMO I've considered since WoW. It is probably my favorite game this year thus far.

here are 2 shots I took on low graphic settings with different resolutions (on my crappy laptop lol). Can't wait to start upgrading my ship and PvPing. I will definitely be building a new computer for this.

And its fair that I don't have the budget I once did, so I have to wait to play games? I've always compared games in the year Ifirst played them. Not which year they came out... because to me, release date has nothing to do with quality.

Test Drive Unlimited 2 probably. It's mostly better than the first one, occasionally significantly worse, but still kind of exactly like it. I'm not exactly sure what that means, but I quite like it I guess. Don't know if they've patched it since I played it so maybe it's less significantly worse now.

Does Beyond Good & Evil HD count? I don't know. It holds up well, but I got my fill back in 2003. I still don't get why people are so keen on hating the stealth sections. I've only played up until around after the factory, but I don't understand what's supposed to be so hateful and annoying about them. They're like simple puzzle sections. I think they break up the pace and add even more variety.

Also Yakuza 4. It does feel quite trite at this point, the series needs some serious vitamins, a full on overhaul. But this time they at least try. The different characters/fighting stiles go a long way. With Of The End they're perhaps trying a wee bit too hard... A zombie shooter? Feels like something that should've been an additional mode added through DLC. Just something throwaway. But it's an entire game. Wonder if it'll be released here?

I've been playing through planescape: torment for the first time, and it's my FAVORITE GAME THIS YEAR! I actually did start playing it for the first time, and it is amazing, but I'd never list it. he should rename the title "Favorite game released this year (so far)" because that was the obvious (or maybe not so obvious for some people) intentions of the OP.

I only played Dead Space 2 and Killzone 3 so far fromthis year, and Iwas happy with both games. Killzone 3 gets the edge. I played Red Dead Redemption to see what all the fuss was about (very good , but overrated by media critics)and more MAG.

Thank you Some-Mist. it's not fair because that extends the list to EVERY GAME EVER CREATED instead of Favorite game this year.

Shogun 2 by a mile. My steam sig says I have played almost 10 hours but I'm already blown away. A real masterpiece of gaming. The only game to exceed my hopes and expectations. Dawn of War Retribution comes a distant 2nd.

Crysis 2. I haven't played much this year, LBP2 wasn't enthralling and I skipped every other 2011 game so far.

Either Killzone 3 or Homefront. I've yet to play Shogun 2 even though I bought it first week it released :lol: Waiting for Spring Break to blast through it. Also need to finish Dead Space 2. I hate my backcatalog.

KZ3 and Homefront both have an incredibly addicted multiplayer and better than average SP. So KZ3 is best console game, Homefront best PC game.

FROG MINUTES

Especially after I found out I could turn on Japanese VA yesterday.

It's not even that good of a game, but it's better than Dead Space 2 is so far.

Hard Corps: Uprising. Haven't played a Yakuza game before but Yakuza 4 looks good. DW7 might be cool as well, though I've never got into one before (loved Ninety-Nine Nights though).

Dead Space 2 so far. Although Marvel vs Capcom 3 and Bulletstorm are pretty great.

Portal 2 and The Witcher 2 are going to be tough competition for Dead Space 2 I'm sure.
