The 20 Best Games of 2012

Zavvi.com: "At the end of both 2010 and 2011, our annual rundown of the best games of the year was intended to be a mere top ten list, until we tallied up each year’s batch of supreme software and arrived at a figure that was far closer to 30 than just 10."

Far cry 3 should be #1.

For me it is Xenoblade, though I have not played Far Cry 3 as I know I'm getting it as a christmas present. Patndora's tower and The Last Story is also fantastic titles. Just wish they and Xenoblade were released for a HD console instead.

Im superised ive only played 8 of the 20. But IMO Binary Domain, Kingdom of Amaluer, & Spec ops the line belong on that list.

i'll add the missing games:
RE6
Dragon's Dogma
RE: Revelations
FFXIII-2
Xenoblade
Max Anarchy aka Anarchy Reigns

Zavvi? So only retail games right? Because both Journey and WD should be there.

[dafegamer]

not even one sony game. I call bs

[Al80]

Yeah, because there were some great Sony games released this year

[Hicken]

Lack of Gravity Rush and Journey is telling, certainly.

Hard to say really it is up to the gamer?

Given that the thumbnail is a Mass Effect image, we can discern the following:

1. Either the article tries to portray Mass Effect 3 as one of the best games of 2012 (or even a good game) in which case it's not worth reading.

-or-

2. It's using the ME3 image in an attempt to garner additional hits from the still-lingering controversy, in which case it's not worth reading.

or

3. Mass Effct 3 is actually one of the best games of 2012, or at least a good game.
