The wave of major new video game releases has finally settled as 2011 winds down and we prepare to celebrate the new year. But before we look forward to an even bigger year of gaming in 2012, let’s reflect back on what the gaming industry entertained us with in 2011.
For the 2011 Game Rant Video Game Awards, we've again expanded upon what we did in our first two years, growing from a single game of the year winner, to seven broad categories, to what we have this year: 15 categories. Read on for the nominees (and click here for the winners).
Skyrim, Battlefield 3, Batman, & Uncharted 3 = Phenomenal games. I haven’t played ACR yet getting it for Christmas. If it anything like the others It should get some love too.
Assassin’s Creed revelations is AWESOME! It’s better than Batman Arkham City! Because there is lot of things to do in ACR not just fight thugs, there are tons ways,equipments or methods. I love this game, I’ve been following AC from the first AC, and it’s best it has a different feel than ACII and ACB which is good, it more like ACI and mixed of ACB and ACII. The story of ACB was lacking, there wasn’t magic in ACB but story ACR is EPIC. I’ts really awesome to play again as Altair, if you played the first AC you will see he is better assassin. den defense are awesome once you get used to them, they are really good if you keep playing them and have great holidays!
He probably didn’t see it because the site didn’t have someone yelling at him “Gears of War 3 is right here on the list! Look here! Take a look right here! Look right here for Gears of War 3! Hey you, you should take a look right here!”
LOL, that game thinks you’re stupid, when you need to do something, instead of letting you use your common sense to figure it out (hm, fire, meet fire extinguisher??) they blatantly just scream at you what you need to do over and over and over until you do it, lol. I swear, if they screamed at me to put out the fire with the fire extinguisher one more time I would figure out how to put him out with the freakin’ fire extinguisher… I guess using our brains while playing is a thing of the past…
I love battlefield 3, AC, MW3, and Witcher; but I believe the skyward sward deserves game of the year. It had everything to be a nominee and everything to be a winner. Battlefield deserves best shooter.. All those games were amazing though!!!!

I want Bastion to win the Indie game award.
Everything about the game is amazing, so amazing I felt it to be, that I went and purchased a CD format of the soundtrack.
Now I wish they bring a second out.
Gears of War 3 in my opinion was the worst out of the series.
“”"”"SPOILER”"”"”"
Dom’s death made me lose all interest in the game. I only played through the game just to see if he somehow lived.

WTF!?
Assassin’s Creed is nominated for best story over The Witcher 2? You have played these game right…?
Assassins creed has always had a great story, hence the award
Skyrim or Darksoul for GTY
I love battlefield 3, AC, MW3, and Witcher; but I believe the skyward sward deserves game of the year. It had everything to be a nominee and everything to be a winner. Battlefield deserves best shooter.. All those games were amazing though!!!!
