    2011 really was an awesome year for games. I miss the early 2010's in general. The fact that there are so many more games that were great but were not mentioned here is really a testament to the amount of quality games coming out back then.

    2011 was one hell of a year for gaming, so many high quality games all in one single year!

    I feel uncharted 3 is kind of underrated for its features in 2011, especially when it is overshadowed by uncharted 2

    Dark Souls deserves more than an honorable mention, it's still influencing modern games to this day

  • @catriamflockentanz
    @catriamflockentanz Рік тому +4

    What hardly anyone praises about OoT 3D, but totally should be mentioned:
    Having a dedicated virtual Ocarina Button instead of having to map it to a C Direction over and over again was a godsend.

    Glad to see Rayman Origins, Portal 2 and Batman Arkham City get their rightful recognition. For me 2011 is rounded out by Deus Ex Human Revolution and Driver San Francisco.

  • @eddiehimself

    Ah yes, 2011. Back when all first-person shooters looked like the screen had been smeared with Vaseline lol.

    • @eddiehimself
      @eddiehimself Рік тому

      Couldn't say. I've actually got a CRT TV I've got my PS3 hooked up to but not tried a FPS on it lol. I was also referring to the yellow-brown colour palette these games often come with as well

    Bethesda released Skyrim in 2011 and now here we are in 2023, just now putting the finishing touches on fixing their game up for them. And they have Skyrim's sequel set to release in 2028, so we'll have that finished for them by... 2040? Imagine making the first half of two great games in just a 30 year period. Bethesda is truly amazing.

    2011 games had this decadent climate. I love them all! Almost everyone was convinced that it was the end of a generation.

      2013, too. We don't get years like this anymore. We were spoiled with choice. Every month, we had like five big games to choose from. And, if we're being honest, they were all worth $60. Even "bad" games like Gears of War Judgment, Dead Space 3, Sly Cooper 4, and God of War Ascension were like 8s. They were fine. They were worse than the other critical masterpieces that make up their respective franchises but a step down from masterpiece is not shit.

  • @scoobydoobydoo4880

    Driver San Francisco is to this day one of the best ever sandbox games ever. I have no idea how it's not on this list.

  • @LaRavachole
    @LaRavachole Рік тому +4

    Played the shit out of Little Big Planet 2 back in the day, it was one of the first PS3 games I got and still is one of the best platformers I've ever played. Wish they made a new game. At least we have the Sackboy game but still.

    It's kind of sad to not see Sonic Generations on the list. But, having Rayman Origins on the list kind of makes up for it.

      hard to believe seeing it got ported to everything after its initial release. sometimes more than once. now you can play a version of Skyrim on the Alexa Pods

    Do you find it funny that Gears of War is known for stealth considered the main characters are'...well, not exactly inconspicous? :)

    Alice: Madness Returns has to be my GOTY of the year for 2011, it genuinely changed my life in huge ways.

  • @pol610
    @pol610 Рік тому +2

    Odd to put OoT, it was remade yes but in essence its still a port to another hardware.

    • @catriamflockentanz
      @catriamflockentanz Рік тому

      All new models equals port to you?
      That's certainly a peculiar opinion.

  • @justingochioco1121
    @justingochioco1121 Рік тому +2

    Why aren’t mortal Kombat 2011 or ultimate marvel vs Capcom 3 on the list as they were the best fighting games of that year

      Fighting games never made it as game of the year tho, they're more niche

  • @bullsonparade3
    @bullsonparade3 Рік тому +1

    Sonic Generations and MK9 should be honorable mentions

  • @frankbrodie5168
    @frankbrodie5168 Рік тому +3

    The Portal games don't do anything for me. But I will admit that my teenage son loves them both. And prefers Portal 2 over the original.

  • @Rorschach1030
    @Rorschach1030 Рік тому +1

    No Dark Souls, Mass Effect 2, or Minecraft or L.A Noire?? Kind of controversial list I have to say. Especially since Minecraft didn’t make it at all!

  • @12thMandalorian
    @12thMandalorian Рік тому +1

    The fact this video didn't contain Mass Effect 2 is suspicious

    @stephendonovan5056 Рік тому +1

    Great list... I think I slept on 2011 being a behemoth for video games... Things like Dark Souls and Limbo got their bigger receptions maybe a couple of years after their release. Akrham City was just a monster, never thought they could match Asylum.

    • @NickBLeaveIt
      @NickBLeaveIt Рік тому

      Limbo first released on 360 in 2010; its PS3 and PC versions were 2011.

    What the heck happened to Sony in the past decade? I know they still do hardware well but they used to have games that people would go out of their way to buy a whole console just to play.

    • @Sneaky_racoon_sly
      @Sneaky_racoon_sly Рік тому +3

    • @thestraydog
      @thestraydog Рік тому +1

      I mean it's not as common as it used to be, but Sony still has the Spider-Man games, God of War, Ratchet and Clank, etc. It's just a different market these days it seems. Kids are now obsessed with only a few games that they can easily play on their phones or tablets and parents are stoked that they don't have to drop $500 on a console anymore

  • @Pulpos999

    Maybe a little known "indie" game called Skyrim came out that November??
    Does somebody remember that? I think it was the ONLY time that game released.
