This was a huge year for gaming and one of (if not) the best year this generation has. I did try to play most of them, but I just couldn't get to all, it was impossible. So here are the ones I missed out on:

Uncharted 3: I really want to play this game. Everytime I see the trailer, it just looks so dam good and I am pulled into the story the same way Deus Ex HR pulled me in with its trailer. I don't know if that actually is true (I haven't even seen any reviews or ratings for the game) but I hope it is.

Assassins Creed Revelations: I am a huge fan of the AC franchise but I just couldn't fit this game in. Being released around the same time as Skyrim, I had to choose between the 2 and considering I have been waiting 5 years for a TES game, I had to choose Skyrim.

Duke Nukem Forever: Yeah, it was a flop, I know. But, I have to play this game. I don't care, it is Duke Nukem, it has been in development for ages and I have to see how it turned out for myself regardless of whether it turns out to be a mess.

Crysis 2: I was actually never interested in this game until it was out. It wasn't until I saw some gameplay footage from a friend that I started to become really interested in this game. Having the same gameplay mechanics of Crysis 1 in this kind of setting looks like a blast. Also I can't help but notice that the start of this game looks nearly identical to the E3 footage of MW3. Crysis 2: You start underwater and reach the surface, there you find the city is in ruins. Hey looks, its the Statue of Liberty. MW3: You start underwater and reach the surface, there you find the city is in ruins. Hey looks, its the Statue of Liberty. :P Speaking of which...

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3: Not for the multiplayer, but for the campaign. As much as I bash the game, I do enjoy the singleplayer campaign and after going through MW1 and MW2, I want to see how this turns out. I have played a few local multiplayer matches with my friends but that isn't what I am after.

Mortal Kombat: One of my most anticipated and controversial games this year. I could blame its banning in Australia for not playing it but truth is I could easily import it. There have been threats of copies being taken and at one point they tried to scare us with a ridiculous fine but there has never been such a case, from what I could gather anyway. But really, I just haven't gotten around to getting it.

Resistance 3: Normally this would be a big game this year, but it just got pushed under the radar from all the other huge games. But yeah, I am really curious to see how this ends, especially since Resistance 2 left it on a pretty strange cliffhanger.

inFamous 2: Loved the first game and I wished I had the time to play its sequel. I was (and still am) a bit skeptical as I don't know if it could match the original but I am probably wrong. Either way, I have to play this game one way or another next year.

Batman AC: Actually, I still need to play Batman AA first, a game I didn't get around to playing another year. But this game looks great, Batman AA looks great, shame I didn't have the time to play either of them this year.

LA Noire: I am still really skeptical of this game, there has never been a Rockstar game I have liked... but just like I said with RDR 'maybe... just maybe this one is different'. This wasn't true for RDR and it probably isn't true for this game either but I am still sucked in... dam it Rockstar!
