I would be interested in your reasoning behind Syndicate being a GOTY contender. ;)
My vote goes to Dishonored!
Far Cry 3 easily for me is GOTY, story is 100% kickass as well as the content within the game. i am still exploring and finding out new shit. Honestly, they sure hit a homerun with this game. Also, the evil bastard with the mohawk that is on the cover is a bad ass enemy and I found my self laughing at things he says. nasty mean but funny.
Needed to fill in the slots lol. Can't you tell by how awesome the games start, then get worse down the list.Quote:

Mass Effect 3. With the extended ending(which should have been the reg ending) EVERYTHING gets answered and it does make the choices you did matter. If you haven't seen extended then you really can not judge ME3.
So you chose that P.O.S over PSABR? :DQuote:

Fighting games as best game of the year? I never played Syndicate, just tossed it up there. I went ahead and changed it.Quote:

I have to think all the way back to the PS1 when i last (illegitimately) cared whether a in game character lived or died. Whilst mordin and legion were my personal stand outs, no doubt everyone had a character they preferred to listen to; or took note when they voiced their opinion on one of the MANY choices the games' fantastic story gave to you.
gameplay from the first two was not stellar, but Mass Effect 3 did everything right.
if anything could be seen as negative it would be that they purposefully slowed the story down, coz when i saw the reapers attack earth in the opening sequence i wanted nothing more than to wage interstellar war on their ass's right there and then.
there is no game on that list as deep as Mass Effect 3
STORY-unmatched
GAMEPLAY-On the higher end
CHARACTERS-Piss poor showing from every other game.
CONTENT- Multiplayer/Singleplayer interconnected. Deep Action RPG (ROLE PLAYING GAME)
Mass Effect 3 for GOTY!!!
I didn't choose Mass Effect 3 because I feel that Mass Effect 2 was better. And Far Cry 3 is just soooooo amazing lol.
Far Cry 3. Story is awesome and makes you want to continue, and its also addicting as hell. Played for 15 hours and it feels like time just flew by. For me, thats how you know a game is awesome.

my brothers, i thought we were all of the same mind my brothers!
:snicker
played farcry at my cousins house. didn't like it. Devs went too heavy with the Depth of field. i hate when things are that blurry. it is at odds with the way i 'see' :D
edit:
i should probably add that i can't exactly ding it for anything, i personally could not play it. i imagine it is quite a solid game however :D
edit-to-my-edit:
but obviously not as good as Mass Effect :p
When does voting end? Its a toss up between borderlands and far cry 3 right now. But I haven't finished far cry yet. Want to complete it before giving my final verdict.
I went for Borderlands 2.
It's a good game to kick back and chill with whilst catching up with friends online.
I would have voted for XCOM: Enemy Unknown but it's not on the poll. :(
Dishonored gets my vote. Runner-ups Assassin's Creed 3 and Mass Effect 3.
Far Cry 3 yo.
I'm gonna be polling you guys soon for our Best of 2012 list on the homepage. Hope to have it up by Monday.
Sleeping dogs for me
Such a weak gaming year.
I voted for Mass Effect 3. Kick ass action, amazing story, and the first game in awhile that truly drew me in and got me hooked. Also I have yet to play many games on that list or am in the process as we speak (Black Ops 2 and AC3).
Lets GO!!! Final Fantasy XIII-2. To be very honest, its only game I played this year.
What I've never understood about GOTY not only this site, but other forums or websites it's always the latest title. Don't get me wrong Far Cry 3 looks great, and I really want to buy it, but a game that's only been out for 1 month compared to other games that were out for a whole year.
Just saying.
