I would have voted Spec Ops but the Walking Dead man... so many emotions, few of them good.

 TL;CQ
Yes, in The Walking Dead you feel sorry for Clementine, you want to protect her, but what games makes you wanting to save the day and then it changes to you wanting to get revenge for a fallen comrade by killing un armed civilians? That is emotional involvement.

Honestly, who didn't fire their weapons into the crowd of civilians?

I agree with pretty much everything you said. Spec Ops had me trying to justify what I had done, it had me arguing with the developers and their loading screens for christs sake. I was enraged, saddened and bewildered all at the same time. But The Walking Dead... jesus it made me feel all those emotions and then some. 

And I didn't shoot the civilians.

The final episode of season 1 was just epic. Every character showed a Human side. It was sad seeing that Ben willing to die, but no-one deserves to be eate, the way he stood up to Kenny was his best moment. I am glad he stuck up for himself.

Kenny was a nice guy, became a douche then reverted back. Willing to die for Christa or Ben.

Omid and Christa willingly followed Lee to find Clementine was brave as well, despite the dangers and most likely death awaits them they still went with Lee.

And the champion himself. Lee. His dedication to finding Clementine by slicing his way through a horde towards the Marsh House was heart breaking the music just suited the scene. Heroic yet sad.



The characters present with Lee during the end really are heroes. Despite the horrors around them, there was still some Humanity.

Dragon's Dogma.

It's not necessarily the best game, but it brings features seldom seen in games to the table. Such as the boss fights. The combat, in general, is phenomenal, though the camera's ability to move passively ruins my fun a lot. They really should have had an option to make the camera move passively, or actively, like in Spyro: Gateway to Glimmer, which has been around since 1999 (apparently it's called "Ripto's Rage!" in other countries), so that's a bit of a fail, TBH.

It's got the absolute best character creator in the history of video games. If only I could show you what my Arisen (the PC) looks like, I know that most male BSN members (and even perhaps some female members) would agree with me - if they saw her - that the character creator is just that good!

So it gets my vote.

XCOM: Enemy Unknown

[breakdown71289]

Probably either Assassin's Creed III or Journey.....but i still have yet to play The Walking Dead series, so my opinion may change once i play it.

[brettc893]

So, I just played a ship battle from AC3.

Can that be GOTY by itself? Or just a game?

I'm completely with you on that. Amazingly done.

[Atalanta]

I should've known there'd be spoilers here for The Walking Dead. Boo.

[dreamgazer]

The experience in playing the two sides of Dishonored---high-death and high-stealth---will probably finish at the top of my list once the year's up.

[Blastback]

Of the games I've played, Fall of Cybertron.

[Cutlasskiwi]

My vote right now goes to Borderlands 2.

[Eire Icon]

Mass Effect 3 and of course The Walking Dead

[Laamaa]

Whoops, forgot to mention Dragon's Dogma! I loved how you could climb on monsters and such. Very entertaining in my opinion.

I've seen a friend playing some, and I have to agree with you there.

Torchlight 2 and Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion.

[Andarthiel_Demigod]

Definetly not the Walking Dead, Old School adventure games bore me to tears.

There were quite a lot of good releases in 2012 that it's hard for me to decided. But overall I will nominate Dishonored which was a fantastic game(if a little short).

Just out of interest - did you try playing it? 

[Volus Warlord]

Well, my favorite so far is Borderlands 2, honorable mention to XCOM.

While I probably played ME3 more than either one, that's only cause I've had it longer.

Probably not. Otherwise he/she would have tears from all the emotionals death scenes instead.

Nope, I dislike this genre so much that I refuse to play it, I didn't even get through the Back to he Future game(happens to be my fav movies of all time) that's how bored I was. I'll stick to the TV series thank you very much. To me, Zombie games need dto be full of action and fun for me to actually play them. Don't really care too much about plot in zombie game neither.

Spec Ops: The Line

This.

So ****ing under-rated, it's disgusting really.

I just hope that this game is seen as a gem in the future, a cult classic. One of those that age better and then suddenly remembered and becomes amazing.

I would have voted Spec Ops but the Walking Dead man... so many emotions, few of them good.

I know...I know...

I chose Spec Ops: The Line purely because it is so so so under-rated and deserves better treatment and everyone else is mentioning The Walking Dead which don't get me wrong is an amazing game, really brilliant and loved it so much.

But Nolan North's voice acting we phenomenal. I and pretty sure the majority know Nolan for Nathan 'Nate' Drake, the wise cracking douche from Uncharted, but Nolan did a completely different role I did not expect him to even deliver but he did indeed deliver.

The change from a calm and collective Walker to this violent monster that Walker became during the story was just brilliant, the change in Walker's tone, his behaviour and his general appeareance (that stare).

It's not Walker committing the crimes, it's the player and culminates at the ending where you have to acknowledge the fact that yourself, not Conrad committed atrocities and many many deaths, your survival will cause a war and causing even more deaths.

Walker's deal with Konrad at the ending was also great. Shooting Konrad (blame the developers) or shoot yourself (blame yourself) for all that has happened.

Subtle images are seen but are not even noticed such as during the sand storms the tallest tower Burj something is actually on fire, Konrad's mug is present in many levels and the tree itself a symbol for Walker's desperation for life (turn around and the tree is dead).

Also Walker is possibly, if not the most deepest character in gaming. He may seem like a general soldier mook but look deeper and you see the real Walker.

Those hallucinations of Konrad? That is Walker's self hatred. Walker's reason for carrying on into Dubai? He wants to be a hero. Walker's transformation? War has disintegrated his mind, he isn't invicible, he is just a Human. Why does he continue? He wants to correct his mistakes and of course again, be the hero.

Konrad's face in billboards? Konrad is deep rooted in Walker's sub-conscience without even realising. His encounter with heavy Lugo? He blames himself his his death. So many details are hidden but Walker is like an actual Human, you can see him under physical stress to the point where you can see him sweating.

His motivations change from saving people to wanting revenge. Even killing unarmed civilians (by then, no one is innocent). He fails in saving the day and makes mistakes (huge ****ing mistakes) and in the end screws everyone over in Dubai and depending if he lives, possibly America.

I wish more people would acknowledge this game. If game's are 'art', Spec Ops: The Line is a masterpiece and deserves a spot in the Smithsonian.

Yes, in The Walking Dead you feel sorry for Clementine, you want to protect her, but what games makes you wanting to save the day and then it changes to you wanting to get revenge for a fallen comrade by killing un armed civilians? That is emotional involvement.

Honestly, who didn't fire their weapons into the crowd of civilians?

You guys make me proud.

I so badly want to agree with you because I'm really enjoying this game and its boss battles, but as you mentioned it does have its fair share of issues. I wouldn't call it GOTY material, but it is an underrated RPG.

It's got the absolute best character creator in the history of video games.

I absolutely agree with this point, however. Best CC available. My own Arisen and Main Pawn --

Hmkay... you've made the right choice then - TWD is the wrong game for you.






Just kidding. Try out the demo at least, TWD rocks!

Mass Effect 3.

By far it has given me the most entertainment. Best of all, I didn't even need to buy or play it.

Your profile pic haunts me...
