Best of 2012

Been a really busy year, so not much time for gaming.

As for the games released in 2012 that I played :

1. Dishonored (Fun game, esp. the ways you could go around destroying *things*)

2. Mass Effect 3

3. FIFA13

4. NBA 2k13

5. PES13

Not that many good games out last year. 2011 had way better games, mostly spent this year with Skyrim anyway, another great game I finished was Uncharted 2. Hope 2013 is better, especially in terms of RPGs..

As for GS's GOTY, haven't played Journey, don't think I'll try it, doesn't necessarily make it a bad game. Far Cry 2 winning People's Choice GOTY, i guess a really stupid voting system contributed a lot to that.

As for my top 3 movies of 2012, its a really hard choice.. great year for movies. :

1. The Hobbit : An Unexpected Journey - Lived up to everything I hoped it would and more.. I wish other books were as detailed in movies. Even if it takes 4-5 hours. Rather than have a 800 page book converted to a 1.5hr movie.

2. Batman : Dark Knight Rises - Christopher Nolan never fails to disappoint. Tom Hardy was brilliant as Bane, C. Bale as Batman. Lost points cause of the ending.

3. Avengers - Just cause of Robert Downey Jr.

2013, another great year for movies. Liked Gangster Squad, thought Sean Penn was brilliant. Lots of great movies yet to come, C. Nolan's Man of Steel, Prequel to 300, Iron Man 3, and of course The Hobbit - Desolation of Smaug. Still got to see some 2012 releases like Django Unchained, Les Miserables.

My Top 5 Strategy games (RTS+turn based)

1. LOTR- BFME2+Witch King expansion

2. Age of Mythology

3. Civilization 5

4. Warcraft3 - Reign of Chaos n Frozen Throne

5. Age of Empires 2&3

Starcraft2 sucks, Rise of Nation somewhat okay. Rise of Legends is unplayable.
