Or has that been left to Yahtzee?
Every year I do a "Top Ten Shittiest Games" rundown. That's coming next week.

Yes, on Christmas Eve.

Yes, I feel slightly guilty.
One thing I'd like to tell ya about the awards so far is that I like the new background you put up. It's not all that fancy, but I still like it when people give attention to the smaller details of things.

Side note: For the top ten worst games,


As always, thank God for you Jim.

It tells you what the song is after the credits. I forgot what it was called though.

So Jim's first "Outstanding game of 2012" is also the first game in my bottom 5 of 2012...
Spectacular...

I'll go out on a limb and guess that Mass Effect 3 and Black Ops 2 are going to be on the list as well.
Those are just guesses though

and tomorrow... The Walking Dead... maybe... The surgical mask was prominently featured in Episode 4.

Considering my taste in games probably the only game I've played that may end up on this list will be The Walking Dead.

At the risk of drawing everyone else's Ire...Dishonoured was one of the worst choices you could have picked, Jim. It's a bland, cookie-cutter game made solely because DX:HR sold well. It uses a good chunk of the same gameplay from that game too, with the lethal and non lethal routes, while also coming off as a pretty badly done Theif. Even more confusingly, it can't decide which it wants to be. The gameplay was so bad, I couldn't finish it in one sitting.

Also...not sure if Dubstep or Drum & Bass used in the opening there.

I'm surprised so many people didn't get the clue, or maybe I did a facepalm at their lack of knowledge. It's obviously Lone Survivor.



Let's give Spec Ops The Line some love, especially for its progressive IN-GAME storytelling and critique of modern military or just violent games in general.

i think the same, but then it would be a really loose clue
If we're sticking to loose clues it could be borderlands 2. Doctor Zed wears the mask too.

I need to pick up Dishonored one of these days. My bet's on Lone Survivor winning it tommorow. And if so, I agree. I don't like or even play horror games, but that one caught my eye and sucked me in.

I played Dishonored for 3 missions and got bored. It felt to much like other games i've played.

Exciting. Love to see Dishonored getting more press. Can't wait for the next entries.

Top 10 "I really hope you didn't just buy these as a gift" list.

We encourage all forms of dream crushing here. :D

What the hell was that?

The game footage montage combined with the dub-step soundtrack makes me want to hate Jim, even though I usually think he's OK.

would the shortening of the award name be the Jimmy?
No, I think it would be "Jimmy Hat"... which is a special kind of... hat... that you wear on your... Jimmy.

I refute that assumption with Lone Survivor - a game that absolutely deserves an award or two.

So you put a 1 minute intro into a 4 minutes video and will spam those 1 day each over 5 days.

Ahh Jim still referencing FF-IX's music as the backing tune but the Backing music while Jim is talking on camera is from FF-VII the marching tune when you have to imitate a Shin-ra Soldier at Junon Harbour.
