Top games I played 2012

A list of the games which I enjoyed in 2012. It includes games I played during the year and not the year they were released. I have some major 2012 titles that I haven't played yet, such as 'Farcry 3', 'Walking Dead' and "Journey"

This year has been a very Higgledy-piggledy year of gaming for me, I have continued to delay buying the games (saving pennies) so tended to be playing the games many months after everyone else. I dropped xboxlive, only picking it up on trials of £1 a month deals. I have began to move back across to the PC, (Left4Dead 2) as the console hardware seems a bit 'boring' .

I have played quite a lot of retro machines and indie titles this year, I enjoyed the indie titles Brimstone and Manic Miner 360 on xbla . actually found two games on my mobile phone I enjoyed playing, Subway Surf and New Star Soccer. Enjoyed the score chase with my mates and kids.

Last day of the year I bought a Wii U, it hasnt arrived yet but I am excited to try it out. Why did I get it. Many reasons really

- New tech, like trying out new gaming experiences

- Think will be fun to play with the kids, my Xbox/PS3 and PC titles seem to be still mature focused.

- hearing peoples views cant wait to try out Wii U Universe

- and heard Zombie U takes pointers from Demon Souls, now its a must get :)

- and i just wanted to support this gaming company, that isnt trying to shove non-gaming stuff down my throat

List items

  • Dark Souls is amazing, I start playing it and lose myself in the world. This game is one of the reason I play video games. I like exploring the world, I like the feeling that I am getting better at the game mechanics. Levelling is fun and the magic users have some neat tricks. I think I have put about 45hrs into it, I expect that i will be putting in another 100 at least

  • This game is brilliant, a joy to play. I adore everything about this game, Tight controls, gameplay, Graphics, Sounds, I put so many hrs into it. Played it single player, played it with my kid. This game gave me so much joy, fun. In an ideal world, this would be a killer app for the system

  • yet to play it coop, having a zombie killing good time on SP

  • Had a blast, action all the way. Really enjoyed it. Like watching a summer blockbuster movie

  • Enjoyed it, but was a bit let down overall. Was expecting better following the awesomeness of ME2. Think the shooting mechanics are its weak point, I would have also preferred more RPG

  • played the demo with my son lots of time, adore everything about this game. Picked up the full game in the sales and ready to hit it more with Luke.

  • only played the first few hrs, but already loving it. Gonna wait until I update my graphics card before I play the rest :)

  • Another Surprise, wasnt expecting much. But the game play was solid and lots of action. Just blank the boss battles :)

  • Had to Cave shumps, love playing them, but just no good at them
