GOTY 2011

SPOILERS ABOUT COMMUNITY GOTY BELOW IN COMMENTS!

These are my favourite games of 2011, not necessarily the best. First, I'd consider myself a somewhat mainstream gamer who will take a great action game over a long RPG any day. Next, I'd like to preface this list with a few games I wish I would have played but didn't:

  • Trenched/Iron Brigade (my biggest regret due to my love of Mechassault; I won a copy from X-Play and have never played it)
  • The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
  • Rayman Origins
  • The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
  • Assassin's Creed: Revelations (never played any of them)
  • Saint's Row: The Third
  • Sonic Generations
  • Stacking

Notable mentions:

  • Jamestown
  • Shadows of the Damned (what RE5 should have been closer to)
  • Jetpack Joyride

Disappointments:

  • Bulletstorm (very middling; meh-worthy)
  • Incredibly Twisted Shadow Planet (I love Metroidvania games - I couldn't bring myself to finish this one)
  • Deus Ex: Human Revolution (I knew it was an Action RPG hybrid, but it was too much RPG for my liking - I traded it for Driver: SF)
