We are quite late with this but here it is, LevelSave’s Game of the Year. Last year, we did a podcast in which some of us argued for our favorite games and that’s how we got our GOTY. This year, we decided to try something slightly different. We had our writers vote on their top six games. The games that were voted on the most, made it to the next round. We voted again with the three games that got the most votes getting GOTY honors. Just like last year...
Want to play one of the most surprisingly fantastic games of this year? Then stop lollygagging and go pick up Tomb Raider on Steam. Or, while you are there, just pick up every Tomb Raider for an extra $4. Yes, every Tomb Raider game (with the exception of Guardian of Light) for only $14. Damn it feels good to be a gamer. Tomb Raider was one of those games that came out of left field for me. I had heard it was good, but I was woefully unprepared for its excellence. Maybe it...
So we finally did it. After scheduling conflicts, a botched Mayan apocalypse, and what can only be described as the worst water polo accident of 2012, we finally have our Game of the Year list. We at LevelSave have done our best to bring you our list with as much transparency and balance among the team as we could. Several team members (see: almost all) live in separate parts of the country(s) and so coming together to argue about videogames is not as simple as one might...
There are times when we lament being in separate parts of the county; being closer together would greatly help in some projects that we all could do. Being close for Game of the Year discussions may result in serious bodily harm to some members of the team.
Don’t worry readers, we have not gone anywhere, it’s just the holidays. We’ve also been rounding up our Game of the Year nominations. There have been some incredible games that have come our way this year, right? From retail Goliaths like the conclusion of the Mass Effect trilogy, Mass Effect 3, to the downloadable giant-killers like Dust: An Elysian Tail and Journey. We had incredible games that were pure game play magic like Fez to games with no game play...
What a year it has been, not only for me personally but also for the video game industry itself. When I think of all the games I’ve played and all of the moments that we have experienced it makes me almost wish I would have taken more time to soak it all in and truly appreciate it . Featured here will be my favorite moments from the year past and also a few game of the year categories. We will see an overall Game of the Year, Moment of the Year, Indie Game of the Year...
The Spike Video Game Awards have ended, and the game of 2012 has been crowned. Under that crown: The Walking Dead: The Game. Telltale Games has crafted what are arguably the most emotional moments of my gaming career and they’re now being celebrated for that. Telltale has done with their five episodes what few developers can do in an entire series: truly connect us with our characters and there emotions on a magnificent level. Telltale Games also took home the VGA...
If you told me last year that a zombie adventure game would be in top ranking for my Game of the Year I would have laughed in your face. And now here we are, with only two episodes left and I could not be more excited. Last episode broke me; here’s hoping that this episode can live up to that high.
