Last Guardian

In most games I would hope that fall damage into water is NOT realistic - because its a video game. I want to fall down into pool of water the size of a bath tub and live.

Last game i played in 2012 was Farcry 3. First game I played in 2013 is Halo 4 (multiplayer).

Technically, the 2012 game that I played the most is Borderlands 2.

But it's nothing compared to how much time I blew in Skyrim which was released in 2011 (and still playing it.)

I've bought numerous games on PC that I already own on console. My main reason for buying them is PC versions tend to be a lot better (especially graphically) than the console ones, and they have a lot better support in terms of user-made-content (Skyrim for instance). I'm a lot better about this now - I usually check if a new console game has a PC version before I buy it.

PC - for sure I'll be dropping some major cash into this (because its also my work PC).

Xbox - probably

PS3 - probably, unless Sony does something stupid like price it at $600+ like last time.

Wii U - based on what I've seen here on GB, Nintendo needs to polish it up more, make it faster, less clunky.

If game of the decade means most influential and important game - then maybe, yes Half-Life 2 deserves that. On the other hand if game of the decade means which game did I have the most FUN with - then I'd pick either a Halo game, World of Warcraft, or Call of Duty. Yes, technically Half-Life 2 did an amazing job with its physics, and never-before-seen visuals, etc, etc... But there's something to be said for a game that can bring together friends to do 4-6 hour dungeon raids, or kill each other online for countless hours into the night.
