What are your picks for the best/worst games of 2011?

How many people mentioned DXHR?

I'm playing through it right now. I just finished the first boss battle before posting this. So far, it's fantastic (except the boss battle, which was unfairly difficult). I love the setting and dialogue. It's a really intelligent game that creates a believable world with believable problems. I really love all of the debate over the use of augmentation technology. It makes me uncertain of which side I want to fight for, and since it gives me choices to make in that regard, I really love the moral quandry of it all. I can't decide if I want to side with Sariff industries or not, and I'm not sure who to trust. It's really some of the best videogame writing I have seen. It's a hard game to put down.

Some of my top games:

Cathrine
Radiant Historia
Skyrim
Ico/Shadow of Colossus pack (I know it is not technically "new", but it's one of the few 2011 releases I purchased)
Deus Ex

There were a lot of games I wanted to play, but haven't gotten yet. I probably forgetting something too... o well.

Well not really retro, but its a shmup. A rarity these days.

Goty:
Motorstorm: Apocalypse (ps3)

Yes, I own all the other games in the series. I liked the change of scenery, it is one of the best looking games on ps3, and online was vastly improved. For me, it is tied with Pacific Rift as my favorite.

Worst:
Marvel vs Capcom 3 (ps3)

^you just say you hate it though. You don't explain what it is you hate about it. I don't get it. I think it's better than 2.

Au contraire, I think MvC 2 is the better game.
