BenLuke Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 What do you think was the best game of last year ? For me, at least, it was either Bastion or Portal 2, with Skyward Sword coming behind those two. Quote BZPRPG Profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legolover-361 Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I haven't played many 2011 video games, and the only one that sticks out in my mind is Portal 2. The game took the amazing potential provided in the first Portal... and actually got even more out. If not the best game of 2011, Portal 2 must at least be one of the best sequels.

Terminus Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 (edited) I got a few games from 2011, but most of my stuff I got last year were games I missed out on. And I have about 5 games which I even have yet to play which I want to from 2011 (inFamous 2, littleBIG Planet 2, Bleach: Soul Ressurecion, Portal 2, and Skyward Sword, and you can see there are some big ones I've yet to play) anyways, I have a top 10 list.1: Arcana Heart 32: Dissidia 012 [duodecim] Final Fantasy3: Kingdom Hearts re:coded4: inFamous: Festival of Blood5: Mario Kart 76: Atelier Totori: The Adventurer of Arland7: Dead or Alive: Dimensions8: Zenonia 3 & 4: The Midgard Story and Return of the Legend9: Mighty Switch Force10: Pushmo Edited January 26, 2012 by Terminus24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creep Of The Deep Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Tough question. Out of all the games I have tried of this year my top 10 would be1. Portal 22. Sonic Generations3. Batman: Arkham City4. Rayman Origins5. Sonic CD (360)6. Mortal Kombat 7. Dead Space 28. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (sue me)9. Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 310. L.A. NoireThat's pretty much my Top 10 of 2011. Quote Do not trust corrupted memories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eeko Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I didn't play many 2011 games, so probably a tie between Portal 2 and Skyward Sword. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavyMetalSunshineSister Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Ummm... Wow.I definitely can't call myself a gamer, so it's good that I don't. My game of the year is probably backgammon.That being said, Minecraft went 1.0 (and later 1.1), so, since I play that, I guess it would have to be my pick.

Toa of Dancing Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I'd say Portal 2, followed very closely by Bastion, and then Beat Hazard Ultra (XD).

Queen of Liars Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Hardly played any games from 2011, but I guess I would have to say Alice: Madness Returns. Even if it is a lot due to waiting for it for 11 years, but it's still a great game.Skyrim was of course also good, and I'm sure that if I could run it, I would say the same about Battlefield 3.

GSR Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I can never choose a "best game", but the one that really stands out in my memory is Ghost Trick. A very fun, unique, and stylish puzzle/adventure game for the DS that was largely overlooked. Quote Hey: I'm not very active around BZP right now.

SonicBOOM XS Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I didn't play many 2011 games, but Battlefield 3 was fun.My GOTY choice would definitely be Sonic Generations, though.

Trevsky Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I purchased 5 games from 2011 this year; Portal 2, Uncharted 3, Battlefield 3, and Skyrim.Now I'm a major fan of the franchise, but I'd immediately disqualify Uncharted 3 because of the fact that it didn't raise the bar from Uncharted 2 (my 2009 GOTY) at all. The game proved itself a worthy successor by the end, with several epic moments and excellent character development, however the experience was less polished and less fresh then it was in the last entry in the series. I never touched the multiplayer or co-op, but in my mind the singleplayer didn't quite expand on the second game like I would hope. Battlefield 3 is a fantastic multiplayer experience, a cheerfully fun distraction to enjoy with friends. From a crashing a jet, to defending a bomb site in a tank, to balls out rushing with a tricked out shotgun, BF3 never lets down on entertaining moments. What I've played of the singleplayer was decent, but it does little to distinguish itself from its completion; it borrows heavily from the Cod4 mission structure and the Blops story and handles neither aspect quite as well. As a result the campaign rarely rose above a strictly forgettable time sink, although it is never miserable.For the week or so that I played it, Skyrim was the most amazing thing ever. It is such an amazing culmination of (almost) everything I want in a Role Playing Game, I simply became overwhelmed by the sheer amount of things to do and wound up quitting. However, glitches and stiff character animations come far from belittling this amazing experience.However, Portal 2 is such a triumph of game design and writing that I feel obligated to give it my personal Game of The Year. Here is a game that we can hold to be a new standard standard of amazing writing and storytelling, with amazing levels and mechanics. Round it off with spectular voice acting, quirky humor only Valve could deliver, and unforgettable moments, and you have a fantastic game. oh, and I also played a fair amount of multiplayer on my friend's PS3. While undoubtedly a massive blockbuster, it falls flat on innovation and... well, being fun. Seriously, Cod has been a major disappointment since the release of MW2, and this title is no different. This game belongs nowhere in a discussion of GOTY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-D-D-Ddude Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 (edited) Somebody complaining about filler in a game that is often considered too short...Uh, what? The FIRST Portal was too short (well, some people say that, I thought it was fine though), Portal 2 is a decent length. Besides, I've read around, plenty of people hated the 7th chapter. Well, I didn't hate it, I just felt it was an artificial lengthing that wasted a really cool concept.
