What's your PC game of the year?

December 13th, 2010

It's that time of year again. A time when everyone and their dog attempts to name the single best game of the year.

Frontrunners for "best PC game" so far include, Mass Effect 2, Civilization V, Starcraft II, and Fallout: New Vegas. Other mentions include Battlefield: Bad Company 2, the indie-hit Minecraft, and even NBA 2K11. Yep, NBA 2K11.

Regarding the latter, an overwhelming number of reviewers are calling it not only the best basketball game of the year, but the "greatest sports game of a generation." I'm not big on sport simulators, but when I read praise like that, I make it a point to put said game on top of my play list. Regardless of genre.

What about you? Provided you're qualified (aka have played a lot of games this year), what's your pick for PC game of the year?

Honestly, I'd rather not pick one single game, especially across different genres. SC2 is great, but so is BC2 and FONV. If I was forced at gunpoint to pick one I might choose BC2 depending on how good Vietnam is when I try it out next week.

I would have to say Mass Effect 2. Although Starcraft 2 would be right behind it.

An honorable mention of Mass Effect 2, Starcraft 2 and Bad Company 2.
With the prize going to... Oh' man, hard choice..

Mass Effect 2 because it's so very rare these days for a single player game to have so much content and such an amazingly rich storyline.

The graphics were very polished and beautiful and the feel of the game was natural and smooth across all platforms.

With easily twenty-hours or more of gametime this game is proof that the cake is not a lie.

This. Why? because I have sooo much trouble in choosing between SC2 and ME2...Both this games are just great.

Yes, I would much rather have a question about a certain genre than just any game, it's hard to choose...

That's some SHONKEH business right there!

how has no one mentioned call of duty black ops? It is easily better than Battlefield: Bad Company 2

Honestly; League of Legends, imo. Very very fun game. Just a few issues here are there.
