Game of the Year 2012: Alex's Top 10

woo!

Amazing coverage.

Alex video feature? Am I on Screened?

Alex bringing the HEAT

Would Alex even have a top 10? You think with all the crap games you give him, it'd all end up at the bottom.

Alex looks like he gained some healthy weight.

Great to see Alex in videos.

Wow, super glad to see Sleepy Dawgs on someone's Top 10 list this year.

Also, Hotline Miami, plus a surprise second pick for Rhythm Heaven.

Good job, Alex!

HOTLINE MIAMI REPRESENT

Even if he writes a lot of stuff its not the same as seeing him in action. Awesome Alex!

Good list here. Some more unconventional picks but still a good one. With how many of the top 10's for the staff that feature Walking Dead I think just by proxy it'll likely get Game of the Year.

Excellent job with these videos

Yay, Hotline Miami in top 3.

holy shit, is Alex going grey?

I can't get enough of Alex's writing. As expected he picks all the beautiful looking and beautiful sounding games. And of course as a fellow zombie fan he picks The Walking Dead. Good show old bean. I'm noticing that he's put on some weight since I last saw him on camera. It's just an indication that he has a girl friend who loves him.

Good job, Alex!

Sleeping Dogs will most likely be on Vinny's list too

Excellent list. More Alex in video form pls

And wow, he wasn't kidding about being #8 in Blitz o_o

Get hype for Alex!

Alex looks more and more like Nic Cage every single time we see him.

Good list, and always great to see Alex.

Anyone else thinks that as he get's older Alex looks more and more like Justin Calvert?

"Oregon Trail in space"

Alex just convinced me to buy FTL.

Indeed, I sometimes forget that he's still a fulltime-ish member of Giantbomb. Good to get him back into video format.

Couldn't be a more musically-inspired list, but I greatly sympathize. Good music can almost carry a game on its own if done right.

Good to see you again Alex !

SLEEPY DOGS! I wonder what place it takes on Vinny's list.

oh alex, you lovable snarky bastard you

WOO THE WALKING DEAD FOR GOTY 2012!

aka Nic Cage's top 10

I wish Alex had posed for the fans. :(

That was the best description of FTL I've heard yet.

Yay, someone at GB is giving Austin Wintory some due props!

Now theres a face and a voice I've missed this year.

Great list.  Alex's love of Drive makes Hotline Miami's placement make a lot more sense.
 
And I missed his on-camera presence!

I really miss Alex.

Great list, thanks Alex!

I miss Alex :(

SLEEPY DAWGS!

Woo, Alex, Woo! Woo!

Alex!

Woo!

Awesome.  Some much needed Hotline Miami love.  That game is fucking great.

I love you Alex!

Fantastic list!

Wait, you're number 8 on the overall leaderboard in Rock Band Blitz? Alex, you're nuts.

Anyways, awesome list. It would have even been more awesome if number 2 and 1 were switched but whatever...

As expected, Alex continues to be entertaining while liking almost completely different things from me, much as he did on Screened. Well, except for Sleeping Dogs.

Alex is starting to transform from Someone's Son into Someone's Dad.

Didt anyone else other than Alex and Vinny play Sleeping Dogs? Shame it didn't make anyone else's top 10 list.

Alex in the flesh a rare sight these days.

It's cool to see the variety in everybody's GotY this year. Alex is the first staff member to pick the same GotY as someone else.

nicolas cage lol...yeah healthy weight.

Awesome list, Alex!

He put a Harmonix game at number ten this completely invalidates his opinion guys
