Let's see... Good games I've played that came out this year...
Mass Effect 3: I was playing it, and enjoying it quite a bit, close to as much as Mass Effect 2 (My 2010 objective game of the year) Then I spoiled the ending for myself and completely lost interest in playing it. Whoops.
Xenoblade: Played about 20 hours of it. Enjoyed it quite a bit. Then I got a bad case of side quest fatigue, and stopped playing it. Why didn't I just stop doing side quests and finish the main plot? I dunno, didn't feel like it.
Warriors Orochi 3: Maybe the most fun I had playing a game this year? But it's a Musou game. Can I really say a Musou game is the game of the year?
Soul Calibur 5: I rented it. It was good. I haven't felt like playing it/watching it since returning it, though.
Street Fighter X Tekken: Whoops, I said good games
So, uh.... None of the above?
