Awesome pick. (Portal 2) :D I figured someone would mention TW2. I felt almost disappointed in some ways. I guess I prefer the dark atmosphere of the first.

I agree the darker atmosphere of the first one was better, but I think pretty much every other aspect of TW2 is an improvement on the first. Which is saying something, because there wasn't much about TW1 I didn't love.

I'm also tempted to go out today and pick up Deus Ex, so there could be another one to add to my list :D

Witcher 2 easily. Waiting for Deus Ex to import... Portal 2 was OK for a playtrough, that's all it means to me.

while i did enjoyed a lot of games this year particularly shogun, portal 2 and witcher 2 (yet to play Dues Ex 3), but the game which I enjoyed the most was frozen synapse, probably because it surprised me the most (and I really like TBS games)

I'd probably give it to Portal 2, but the Witcher 2 was awfully close to it. Deus Ex has been surprisingly good so far (10 hours in), but hasn't really blown me away. I guess it doesn't help that I really liked EYE a month ago.

Dragon Age 2 and Crysis 2. Such fantastic games that improved over their predecessors in every single way :P. Portal 2 so far, I really loved Bastion as well seeing how that was $15 and turning out to be something rather special.

Deus Ex: HR for me. I just got Deus Ex: HR last night and am loving every minute of it so far. They did a great job on the PC version in my opinion.

Shogun 2, after the DX 11 patch it is one of the most perfect games I know of

Deus Ex and Witcher 2 right behind (6 hours into DE:HR so that may change)

- The Witcher2 = Amazing rpg with great graphics, story and combat.

- Total War Shogun2 = Have played 100+ hours on this game already, up there with Dawn of Discovery for my favorite strategy game this gen, the Total War series is back people!

- Deus Ex: HR = I never thought that we would get another Deus Ex game that was like the first one but HR really surprised me, fantastic game

I honestly cant pick atm between those three, all are fantastic game and its going to be hard for other games to beat what these 3 have done for the rest of htis year.

Portal2 was good, Terraria I really like also, Bastion and Avadon are good to and I also liked Brink but those three games above are in a league of there own.

I really could make a case for each of those 3 games I listed above for GOTY so far, will have to wait till the end of the year to fully decide though.

Great picks, Kozz. :) Yeah, it has been a wonderful year so far in gaming. Not to mention all the amazing indie games. My favorite indies are SPAZ, and Avadon? (is it indie? too lazy to google lol). The Witcher 2 although at the heels of my Deus Ex HR, :) just wasn't as memorable for me as the original. Most importantly though, I think 2011 offered such a variety of games in different genres and categories so that everyone had a nice slice of the pie, sorta speak. You have a WRPG in one hand, a bag of indie games in the other, strategy game in one. And there's more to come! It's like the year started with a huge bang and then there's a creepy guy standing in the dark corner that says: "It's just getting started."

I'm kinda glad Skyrim is coming out in November. It'll give me ample time to go through most of my semester and finish strong. I'll probably pick it up day one and practice self-control. That game is going to warp me.

I can't really say, Dragon Age 2 so far but I think that might be the only 2011 game I've played so far. I intend to play Deus Ex, Dead Space 2, and LA Noire sometime. I've been mostly playing games from last year or older. Just got a decent PC for gaming last year so I've a lot to catch up on for PC.

It doesn't need to be released to be my GotY: Disgaea 3. But to keep it PC (since it's the PC board), it's rathe rhard, I guess I go with Age of Empires Online

I have to be honest, I'm surprised with all the mentions of the witcher 2 and portal 2. I thought both were sort of disappointing. I thought the witcher had a really weak second half and I wasn't all that into the combat, and portal 2 seemed like they tried to force the charm in.

I guess Portal 2, not many good games this year, with the exception of dead space 2. I hated the witcher 2, didn't give dragon age 2 a chance, I hated 1 though so maybe I will try 2, and crysis 2 looks like a fun game for a weekend.
