Agree. Whoever thought 'press a button as onscreen shows you' was a good game method needs to be stamped on by all the gamers.


Why not just play on a Hardcore Server?


I have now tried hardcore mode on battlefield 3. It's honestly not that hardcore....

Favourite Game of 2011 - Skyrim

Don't know about the storyline - I've just got hold of a mace and some conjuration spells and am wombling clockwise around the map. Taking on Forsaken at level 5 is a bit exciting. It's the best exploration game ever. Can't wait for the complete-UI-overhaul-for-PC mod.

Most Disappointing Game of 2011 - none.

My favourite games of 2011 are two I just started playing very recently, which have been mercilessly sucking up all my free (and otherwise) time like miniature black holes of Doom:


* Anno 2070 - strategy game, in the line of Civilization, Sim-City and other colony building and management games. Real-time based instead of turns, but slow-paced enough. I'm only in the honeymoon period with this one, but I'm loving it so far, very nicely detailed, with seemingly a lot of depth, options, commodities to manufacture, technologies to research, etc...

The campaign mode is basically an extended tutorial to gradually introduce the player to the game's mechanics and complexities, but the core of the game is in its sandbox mode. There are also single mission scenarios you can play, but I haven't explored those yet.


* Terraria - discovered this through a thread Brujo Loco made about it, gracias! A 2D / classic arcade shooter version of Minecraft in all of its sandbox goodness, but with less emphasis on Lego construction gameplay, and more on adventuring, exploring, fighting monsters, collecting items, etc...

Worst games out 2011 are...

Rage

Dragon Age 2

Star Wars the old republic



What is most striking about this is that both Skyrim, batman and uncharted was made by independent developers and that EA are responsible for 3 of my worst games of 2011 and activision for 1, except Rage all big companies fail again, worse than their 2010 and 2009 records.

2011 was a great year for my gaming though. Skyrim has stolen 100's of hours from my life. Worst spent money to me was SWTOR. best spent was Skyrim.
