The GameArena Game of the Year 2012 Survey

GameArena's Game of the Year Survey is here! We want you to tell us what you thought the best games of 2012 are. If you tell us why you thought a certain game deserved the Game of the Year you'll also go in the draw to win a Sonos music pack - a wireless speaker you control via your phone.

Remember to answer the "Worst Game of the Year" question too - it's very important that we get to the bottom of that question.

The GameArena Game of the Year Survey

Remember last year how you all voted for Skyrim when the correct answer was Batman Arkham City? Jeepers guys don't screw this up again.

**** you and **** this ****** survey and you're going to die ************ and have a happy new year.

Also, I dearly wanted to enter Postal THR33 as worst game of the year, but no Other field for that one.

Do we win prizes based on most RIGHT answer, or most awesome answer? Because I'm confident my answer is awesome, and 100% confident it won't be right.

I'm confident my answer was 100% right AND awesome, but 0% popular.

It's based on awesome so you guys will have to duke it out in the arena of honour.

Well as we all know, no game released this year was more fun than Dark Souls last year, so Dark Souls PC wins by default.

The guy who had to make a mod to make the graphics not look like arse might debate that, but I'm backing you all the way!

The graphics were already equal or better than the console version, so if he did disagree on that basis he'd be an idiot.

Yeah I'm pretty displeased that Dark Souls PC isn't in a list, FOR SHAME. Of course, factoring in having had played it before already, it doesn't beat out the true GOTY this year Dishonored. I hope I win the contest!

Also if Miasmata was released a couple of weeks earlier so people could have played it it would totally belong on this list and y'all should go play it or read that What is that went up on Friday

So the community modders that 'fix' the resolution cap that was placed on it when it was so casually ported, they are idiots too? All the people who complained about the resolution issue, fools to the last? Everyone that called it on being poorly ported and asked when the resolution would be patched?... Just morons. I'll go tell'em. Someone fix the wiki too.

I fail to see what PC resolutions has to do with that comment.

That's easy :). You said it was fun, I said that it prolly wasn't fun for the guy who had mod the resolution packs, you said anyone who thought there was anything wrong with the graphics was mentally challenged, I challenged that... Mentally! *Mind blast!*

Yeah, no. That never happened.

*Stares at the guy who's post where he said just that was only a few posts ago and still visable to everyone?*

... What are we even doing right now?

Apparently both arguing the blindingly obvious, pointing it out multiple times to each other, essentially saying the same thing, and you still getting it completely wrong.
