Time to post your Top 5 Games of 2012, and I'm here to start us all off.
To make this a little less hectic, let's limit everything to games released in 2012.
Special Mention to any and all DLC's for 2011 releases.
5. Call of Duty Black Ops 2
Say what you will about CoD. but I think Blops 2 was a step in the right direction after a couple of years of stumbles, and the multiplayer is the finest since MW2.
4. Mass Effect 3
Despite the ending to the series not being up to snuff, Mass Effect 3 was still a highly memorable game that brought the series polish to a shine, and who could forget that last Mordin Mission...
3. The Walking Dead
A game that I was encouraged to play, and ended up enjoying a whole lot more than I initially thought it would. Likeable characters, an interesting story and a bundle of atmosphere made this one hell of a game.
2. Spec Ops: The Line
A complete surprise, Spec Ops is not a fun game, but an arresting one. What started out as a banal and by the numbers shoot'em up evolved into one of the most thought provoking and refreshing game stories ever. If I was measuring games strictly by how important I think they are, this would be at number 1.
1. Halo 4
Easily the most fun I've had all year, and easily the best entry to the Halo Series. Halo 4 gave the Halo franchise a much needed makeover that takes the amazing base formula and updates it to blow you out of the water.
