My Top 5 Games of 2011


2011 was a huge year for me in the sense of video games. From the beginning of the year all the way through December hot titles were flying onto the shelves leaving us gamers begging for a mystical item that could fill our wallets.

1. Batman: Arkham City (XBOX 360, PS3, PC)


Why?
Rocksteady was able to create a game that plunges gamers into the shoes of the Dark Knight himself. I found myself thrown into may situations in which I had to plan my attack and think, strategically of course, like Batman to get the job done.


2. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword (WII)

Why?
I always found the Legend of Zelda to be amazing and when I finally got my hands on the newest installment I was thrilled. The developers were able to freshen up what was to be expected from Zelda, reinvent it completely, create an in-depth plot, and utilize the game for amazing use with the Wii's motion controls.


3. Little Big Planet 2 (PS3)



Why?
Media Molecule created a game that allows players to create their own games. A very smart idea on the developers part because their is always fresh content being produced. With a massive amount of creative tools and techniques players can create playable multiplayer games, films, and more.

4. Battlefield 3 (XBOX 360, PS3, PC)



Why?
Battlefield 3 was released in mid-October and was powered by the critically acclaimed Frostbite 2 engine. The engine was implemented and, in my opinion, delivered an amazing battle experience. Yes, the console versions were not as impressive as the PC's, but still the game blew me away.

5. Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception (PS3)


Our latest Uncharted 3 footage.
Why? 
The developers at Naughty Dog were able to create a compelling story (although it did feel a little less than full). They chucked gamers into history changing treasure hunt that turned our favored Nathan Drake into a reckless son of a bitch. Tensions were high, emotions were pouring out, and hundreds of year old homes were being burned down. I loved every second of it, and when I was done I spent a large amount of time battling it out in their revamped multiplayer mode.

Gotham City Impostors Combines FPS with Superheroes

     How incredible is this? Gotham City Impostors appears to have all the elements of a classic First Person Shooter combined with all the fun and unpredictability of the the heroes and villains of Gotham City.      Basically, the entire plot of this game is "When Batman is away, Impostors will play." Their are two teams that are dedicated to battling out by all means necessary. The Batman impostors who dress up as closely as they can to the caped crusader, look completely unprofessional. They are not what you would expect Batman to look like, but that is the entire point of this game. On the other team lies the maniacal Joker impostors who make themselves useful by going on insane rants when the real Batman is busy.      Gotham City Impostors is an all multiplayer game and will be available for PS3, Xbox 360, and PC in  early 2012. This game will be download only, so if you are interested you might want to have a way...
