As we ride the holiday wave into 2012, we often look back fondly on the memories we’ve had in the year. For most people, memories lie in the things they’ve done with the people they love, and sometimes, however unfortunate, the losses that make people into what they are today. As nerds, we generally make a top 5 list and let the internet argue about what games are our GAME OF THE YEAR.
Alright first of all, I’m no critic and whatever I say you can take with a grain of salt. I just know what I like and I’m gonna tell you what I like. But I have to say that there were a lot of great games that came out this year and there are quite a few I still need to play (I’m looking at you Skyrim!!), but with that in mind I feel satisfied jumping into this list. Let’s get to it!
OK, so, Grant says that “I should do 5 categories because of blah!” But screw that. I didn’t play too many games this year, and forcing underqualified entries into being “good” just isn’t my style.
Note: If your favorite games aren’t on here, there are two possibilities as to why.
1) I didn’t play them
2) They sucked.
These are just games that I can totes vouch for.
So, let’s rock.
A Primer
Well guys, Deuce-Eleven is on its way out, and with that comes all the end of the year awards for things like movies, music, video games, and television. In an attempt to expand what this website consists of, we’ve decided to do our own take on the process, starting with video games. Depending on how this goes we might expand into the other mediums or change the format, but for now the process will go a little something like this…
Each member makes up their own five categories involving video games they played this year. These categories can be whatever the author wants – it’s totally up to the individual member which kind of games they highlight for this year and why, with the only limitation being there can only be FIVE. Honorable mentions are allowed, but the goal is to show off five games that REALLY made an impact on the author this year. Also an important note: The games in these lists don’t necessarily have to have been RELEASED in 2011 – it’s more a reflection on what we played in 2011 than what came out in 2011. So without further ado, I’ll kick things off.
