Your 5 Must-Buy games 2011

[999realthings]

While I know the year is nearly over, if you can only buy 5 games from 2011 which 5 would you pick?
Personally, my picks are: Portal 2, Deus Ex: HR, Batman:AC, Skyrim & Saint's Row 3.

 

[Ulquiorra4sama]

Deus Ex: Human Revolution
Batman: Arkham City
Uncharted 3
Assassin's Creed: Revelations
Saints Row: The Third

No doubt my must buy list and i already have 2. The other three pre ordered.

 

[Clive Howlitzer]

Let us see, only 5 games to choose from upcoming and already released games, eh?
Dragon Age 2
Total War: Shogun 2
The Witcher 2
Deus Ex: Human Revolution
Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
How about that, exactly 5 and I don't feel like I missed anything. I also already own all of them but Skyrim!

 

[afroebob]

Portal, Arkham City, The Old Republic, Skyrim, and Dark Souls. Granted I have never bought any of them, I don't think I've bought a game since Halo Reach...

 

[dratyan]

Portal 2
Batman: Arkham City
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
The Witcher 2
Deus Ex: Human Revolution

 

[MercurySteam]

Dead Space 2, Saints Row The Third, Gears of War 3, Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Dragon Age 2.

All great games with plenty of replayability (hoping SR3 will too).

 

[ImperialSunlight]

Including those already out?
Dark Souls
Assassin's Creed: Revelations
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
Pokemon Black/White

Though I was personally disappointed with Pokemon White, I put it there because there wasn't anything better that I would buy.

 

[BehattedWanderer]

Portal 2, Dragon Age 2, Saint's Row the Third, Assassin's Creed Revelation, and LoZ: Skyward Sword. Three are already paid for, one will probably be my xmas game, and the other I'll pick up soon enough.

Likewise honorable mention goes to Arkham City, but since I didn't buy Arkham Asylum, I may get the special bundle that they're offering.

 

[Bat Vader]

This is going to be tough since most of the games I bought this year would make the list.

1. Deus Ex: Human Revolution. (PC)

2. Batman: Arkham City. (PC) Rented it for the X-BOX 360 but have to wait a month buy the PC version.

3. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. (PC)

4. The Witcher 2: Assassins Of Kings. (PC)

5. Star Wars: The Old Republic. (PC) I can't wait till December 20th, 2011.

Those are my top 5 buys for this year.

 

[999realthings]

Gotta say kinda suprise with overall list. So far, only 1 BF3 and no CoD

 

[Porecomesis]

1) Deus Ex: Human Revolution
2) Portal 2
3) Bastion
4) Driver: San Francisco
5) Cave Story 3D

6) Xenoblade Chronicles
7) Ico and Shadow of the Colossus Collection

ARGH! I HAVE TOO MANY GAMES THAT ARE AWESOME!

 

[OldAccount]

Strange, now that I think about it the only must have game for me was Arkham City and the the rest were sort of sudden impulses that I didn't plan(Deus Ex, Dead Island, Gears 3 and Deadspace 2 were among these)

 

[NellNell]

Skyrim
Dark Souls - Didn't know this was on Xbox till yesterday and now I'm pumped.
Super Mario Bros. 3D
Deus Ex: Human Revolution
Batman: Arkham City

 

[HassEsser]

Portal 2 (pre-ordered)
Deus Ex (pre-ordered)
Batman Arkham City (pre-ordered, waiting for release)
The Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword
Uncharted 3 (pre-ordered, waiting for release)

and that's literally every game I have interest in this year.

 

[Lord Doomhammer]

Portal 2
Bulletstorm
Crysis 2
Gears of War 3
Duke Nukem Forever


These are the games I've already gotten this year. That said I want to still get these, mostly because Duke Nukem was a load of shit and I want my fucking money back >:[ and I hate it and I cant believe I spent 80 bucks on the balls of steel edition.

On another note, bulletstorm and crysis were amazingly good, and for some reason nobody seems to have bought them.

Battlefield 3
Deus Ex: Human Revolution

Just realized I probably look like a ponce for basically only having shooters, I got a couple RPGs on steam like Hydrophobia, but that was crap too so it cant be on the list.

 

[Sir Shockwave]

My top 5 of the year (seeing as I have all the ones I'm interested in) -

1) Cthulu Saves the World!
2) Might & Magic VI
3) Deus Ex - Human Revolution
4) Global Agenda
5) Dawn of War II: Retribution

A quick note as well - these are all games that I purchased and played in this year. So before anyone moans "but X wasn't released in 2011!" - it still counts because I bought it this year. The list is also ranked according to which I liked more (so yeah, DX was beaten out by a Turn Based Strategy and a 8/16-Bit RPG O.O).

 

[razor343]

1) The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (PC)
2) Saint's Row The Third (PC)
3) Stronghold 3 (PC)
4) Assassin's Creed: Revelations (PC)
5) Postal 3 If it comes out this year (PC)
