Top Ten Games of 2012

The Vine writes: Every gaming critic loves picking their Game of the Year. Even me (the idiot pictured above). But to be honest, it's far, far more edifying - and far easier - to pick a whole bunch of games that did it for them. And by did it, I mean ate up unfeasible amounts of time, and ensured the critic in question talked about nothing else with friends whilst playing. You know, the games that non-gamers were infuriated by throughout the year.

Well, here are my top ten games of 2013. Incidentally, this is also a great list of games to pick up if you missed out on them, and I'll endeavour to explain why in each entry. They aren't in any particular order, so let's begin!

It's great to see that Gravity Rush makes it in so many lists :) such a beautiful game

MelonSaurus4139d ago

Unfortunately it's not making it onto many lists actually. It's in my top 10 for sure though.

NovusTerminus4139d ago

Same, a wonderful game, but the director said he was working on a sequel... And that's all we can ask for really, it got enough praise to get Kat in ASBR, and to get a GR2!

Y_51504139d ago

Yes that game made me wish I got a Vita sooner! :)

Knushwood Butt4139d ago

Just beat Gravity Rush.

I have lots of praise for it but I hope they polish the gameplay more for the sequel.

tachy0n4139d ago

waiting anxiously for Gravity Rush 2!! :D

loool now i want to play Gravity Rush for the 5 time :/

CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.

miyamoto4139d ago

Hope GR2 is both for PSV and PS3

Kur04139d ago

It should stay PSV exclusive.

r214139d ago

NO, GR is a psv exclusive and shall remain so. As much as I'd like a ps3 version to happen, I'd rather have it on the vita a thousands fold more.

It's A Crime That There's No Sleeping Dogs 2 Yet

Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."

LG_Fox_Brazil4d ago

I agree, I consider the first one a cult classic already

isarai4d ago

You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is

CrimsonWing693d ago

That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.

solideagle3d ago

Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion

Abnor_Mal3d ago

Doesn’t Microsoft own the IP now since they acquired Activision?

DaReapa3d ago

No. Square Enix owns the IP.

Abnor_Mal3d ago

Oh okay, Activision owned True Crime, but when that didn’t sell as intended it was canceled. Six months later Square Enix bought the rights and changed the title to Sleeping Dogs.*

*As per Wikipedia

boing13d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Sleeping Dogs was a sleeper hit back then. It was fantastic. It actually still is. Would love a sequel to this, or at least a revive of True Crime series.

Forget Gravity Rush movie, give us another GR game!

porkChop101d ago

I didn't even know a movie was coming. If they can get the visuals and everything right I'll watch it.

Barlos101d ago

I didn't either, until this article. I'm also surprised, since GR was a commercial flop. Seems weird that they'd want to invest money into making it into a film.

I think the games are great though, especially on Vita. I think the move to PS4 killed the experience a little, but I'd still like to see a new one.

1Victor101d ago

I didn’t know it was in development ether but it makes sense after they saw the first doctor strange movie and the far from home fight, if it’s like that’s it’s going to be one of those Oscar nominees

Cacabunga101d ago

GR movie and shutting Japan Studio.. so stupid

porkChop101d ago

@Cacabunga

Oh yeah... Well there goes any hope for a new game. Shuttering Japan Studio was a really bad decision.

Surely you’d think if the movie is coming so is another game

And I couldn’t be happier.

Only played the demo of gr2 but let me say it’s one of the most artistic and inventive new games. Ps5 will power gr3 to new heights
Fingers crossed

Made my day hearing this.

Finally, something innovative

Redemption-64101d ago

GR2 flopped, which would they make a new game? A movie has more appeal and a successful hit at the bix office, could lead to a new game for the franchise

ChasterMies101d ago

Ok, I’ll stop sitting on Gravity Rush 2. It’s been in my library for only 8 years.

Chocoburger101d ago

Play Gravity Rush Remastered first if you haven't already, the stories are linked together. GR 2 is a fantastic game, it has a lot of stuff to see and do. In fact I have purposefully not completed the game 100% because I simply didn't want the game to end. I still have some trophies to collect, and a whole free story DLC chapter to play through.

Gravity Rush 3 would be amazing! But the team that made parts 1 and 2 were shut down, so I don't expect it to happen. This was Jim Ryan's biggest sin of all, shutting down PlayStation Japan Studios. What a shame.

FinalFantasyFanatic101d ago

Why not both? I really like the games and was disappointed we didn't get a third game to finish off the story, but I wouldn't mind a movie either if it's well done. Maybe it'll drum up enough interest to get us that third game.

gold_drake101d ago

damn that is aaalot of ppl

id rather have another Gravity Rush game than a movie tbh

DarXyde101d ago

Same. This series really resonates with my gaming spirit. I love these games so much that I got four platinums out of two games. I was always dreading that we would never get another game after Japan Studio's closure, but I'm feeling hopeful in them not giving up on the franchise with this move. My guess is that they're going to use this as a funding point

MrNinosan101d ago

That is the same amount as daily loading screens... never mind

watching the video is better then going through 31 pages of gamingbolt.

LG_Fox_Brazil150d ago

Do they explain in the video why there are two numbers 3? Starfield and Tears of the Kingdom?

xeniate144d ago

It's always refreshing to see games embracing the streaming community.
