Community GOTY for 2012: The Final Vote


The final results are in! The top ten hasn't changed much from the sneak peek I took last year (a whole year ago, how peculiar!), but Sleeping Dogs jumped in. We've also included the next most popular to bring us up to an even 20. I'm quite happy that FTL and Chivalry are in there. Great games, truly brilliant.

These are all because of YOU:

20. Chivalry: Medieval Warfare
19. Spec Ops: The Line
18. Planetside 2
17. FTL: Faster Than Light
16. Batman: Arkham City


15. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
14. Journey
13. Torchlight II
12. Max Payne 3 (Down from 10th)
11. Mass Effect 3


10. Assassin's Creed III (Down from 8th)
9. Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition
8. Hitman Absolution (Down from 7th)
7. Sleeping Dogs (New Top Ten Entry)
6. Guild Wars 2


5. XCOM: Enemy Unknown
4. Far Cry 3 (Down from 3rd)
3. Dishonored (Up from 4th)
2. The Walking Dead
1. Borderlands 2

We don't need to say anything about Borderlands 2 apart from this...
So... do you agree?

  2. Crusader Kings II should be on this list. Love this site.

    1. CK2 is definitely an amazing game. I started playing it again over Christmas.

  3. I was sad that Borderlands 2 didn't make it on more lists, very happy to see it here. There was no other game I had more fun with last year by a wide margin.

  4. The only bad game in the list is Mass Effect 3

  5. I'd say Borderlands 2 and Dishonored are really overrated. I think Max Payne 3 should be higher up, as well as Spec Ops: The Line and Hitman: Absolution

    1. I'd personally put Dishonored above Hitman. It may have been a little gimmicky but its basically Hitman/Thief with Dovahkiin powers! That can't NOT be awesome :p

  6. Only GG-distributed games? Then maybe the list is OK. If not, Diablo 3 missing is a glaring omission.

    1. It was from all votes, so not just GMG-distributed games ;) In that list of 20 there are 5 that (at time of writing!) we don't have on our website.

      Diablo 3 only received a handful of votes.
