you've met with a terrible fate, haven't you?

You know the drill. What have been your favorites this year? My list isn't exactly complete at the moment; I've yet to play Borderlands 2 and XCOM (will hopefully be getting both for Christmas) and I haven't gotten around to playing enough of Pokemon Black 2 to form an opinion of it yet. I'll probably be doing an in-depth blog post at the end of the year, but for now, here we go: 1. Xenoblade Chronicles / The Walking Dead (tie) 3. Mass Effect 3 4. May Payne 3 5. Kid Icarus: Uprising 6. The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings - Enhanced Edition 7. Dishonored 8. Soulcalibur V 9. Assassin's Creed III 10. Spec Ops: The Line Edited by Yeshua, Dec 13 2012, 12:53 AM.

I just bought the walking dead. I know it won game of the year from that spike thing, but is it really that good? Since I'm a fanboy of the show and comics I'll probably think highly of it, but like how long are the 5 episodes together? |

Each episode is roughly 2 1/2 to 3 hours long, so altogether it's probably 12-15 hours. Where The Walking Dead really succeeds is in the characters. The characters and their struggles feel extremely real, and it's by far and away one of the best story-driven games I've played. To call it a "game" is putting the term a bit loosely since it's more of an interactive story a la Heavy Rain, but it's an extremely emotionally-heavy game. Might as well call it All My Feels: The Game. |

best game of the year.... I guess CoD: black ops 2 since it's the only 2012 title I played that wasn't crap or a rehash. |

^You must not have played many games this year, then. Also, I edited in Soulcalibur to my list because I forgot about it. That game really kicked the year off right; most fun I've had with a game in that series since SC II. |

<3 But yes, big surprise, Xenoblade is definitely my favorite. Other than that, I don't think I've played any new games this year. |

I just realized the irony of saying it was the only title that wasn't crap or a rehash. But COD is one of my the most infamous series for being rehashed lolololololol |

Borderlands 2 is the only game from 2012 that I've played and I loved it but I'm not sure how I can say it's the best when it was the only one I played. |

FAAAAAAATHEEEEEEEER

Haven't played much from this year at all. I guess Pokemon Black 2 or MGS3D would take the title for my 2012 GOTY. |
