Post what games you liked in 2012 in list form wherein you rank them from best-best to least-best. Multi-platform games I played on PC.
1. X-COM Enemy Unknown (Multi) 2. Journey (PS3) 3. Mark of the Ninja (Multi, download) 4. The Walking Dead (Multi, download) 5. Sleeping Dogs (Multi) 6. Need for Speed: Most Wanted (Multi) 7. Crashmo (3DS) 8. Darksiders 2 (Multi) 9. Cook, Serve, Delicious! (PC) 10. Spec Ops: The Line (Multi)
Honorable mentions: FIFA 13 is better than FIFA 12, which was the best FIFA in about five years. Hotline Miami is pretty impressive, it just doesn't appeal to me at all Planetside 2 is a pretty good recreation of the first, in modern video game form. Persona 4 Golden is the ultimate version of one of the best JRPGs ever made (Persona 4 released for PS2 in 2008), and it's a thing you only get on the Vita. Torchlight 2 seems pretty good but I've only played about an hour of it, considering I put about 80 hours into the first Torchlight like a month before it came out, so I was pretty burned out on Torchlight. Syndicate is a real cool game that not enough people played and suffers from being too much like Deus Ex from last year (which was a real piece of shit). Tokyo Jungle this game is INSANE in all the best ways, but the actual playing of it is not that much fun. The Pinball Arcade just play Theater of Magic and Tales of the Arabian Nights one million times, you piece of shit.
Hot pieces of shit in 2012: Diablo 3 is a miserable failure almost exclusively because the real-money auction house exists. Fez I mean ok Phil Fish, you're a demented genius and all, and there's a ton of depth to your silly puzzle game and all, but maybe if a game takes you half a decade to complete and is exclusive to the 360, maybe make the game not run like a pile of dicks on that platform. Mass Effect 3 hey you know those dozens of hours you've put into making choices and crafting your own universe? Well, the conclusion to your story is going to come down to which of three doors you walk through. Thanks for letting us ruin Bioware's once glorious name! Orcs Must Die 2 only get this if you have friends who also want to play your weird cartoony tower defense game. Otherwise, load up single player and then literally go fuck yourself.
