"triangal", really? I weep for the future

besides, an american football is shaped more like a rugby football (which is something an assie could relate to

Anyway.. not surprised by the list.

Just Dance 2 only came out for the Wii, but the third one was on 360 and PS3 as well? Or did only the Wii version outsell the other titles? I'm a little confused too, this is total combined sales across platforms for each game, right? Why didn't they do it like Japanese retail lists where each title is separated by console (like did PS3 Skyrim outsell 360 Battlefield 3? did Wii Just Dance 3 outsell PC Skyrim? etc.)

I'm glad to see Batman made the list, it earned it's sales.

Batman was the only game from that list I actually bought. I found it to be hyped and horribly overrated. The game is terrible but I found it to be very very average.

geminisama · Jan 13, 2012

To each his own, sir. I found it to be pretty good. Skyrim was my overhyped and horribly overrated title of the year.

Tom Bombadildo · Jan 13, 2012

Ehh. What're you gonna do? I bought two of these (Skyrim and BF3) and only played both for 7 hours total. Beat the Skyrim main quest in 5 and played 2 hours worth of BF3 online with some friends.

All in all I'm not surprised at the list though, could tell those would be the biggest games right from the start.

I understand and respect your views. I am glad we were able to comment on this topic in a reasonable fashion with good mutual respect.

Do just the main quest, no side quests or anything. You can do it in 5.

How many of the games did people here play or buy?
I got Skyrim, Gears 3 and Batman. Might try B3 & MW3 some day when they are like £5 each.

Proud owner of BF3, Skyrim (got it during the Xmas sale for £22!!!) and AC Revelations (my fave game out of all!). Had MW3 but eventually got sick of it, so I traded it for Mario Kart 7 and not a single regret.

Oh and good luck getting those games for a fiver, especially for COD. That thing takes years to get a massive price drop!

Portal 2
LA Noire
Child of Eden
Shadows of the Damned
Marvel vs Capcom 3
Uncharted 3
Ico/SotC Collection
Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky
Sonic Generations
Saint's Row The Third
Xenoblade

Here's a list of 2011 games I bought for comparison's sake. And for shits and giggles.

Haloman800 · Jan 13, 2012

Despite being a little late to the game, I knewSkyrim would be on here, & I've never even played it.

edit: late as in later in 2011

Likewise. I would shake your hand, but alas, I have no hands.

Wii gamers A.K.A casual gamers A.K.A people who don't really like video games innit.

Skelletonike · Jan 13, 2012

Most Americans don't have a really good taste in games... Only good games in that list (imo, that is), are Skyrim, GoW3, Assassins Creed and Batman

triassic911 · Jan 13, 2012

Out of that list, I bought Battlefield 3, Gears of War 3, and Assassin's Creed: Revelations. Really fun games.

shakirmoledina · Jan 13, 2012
