10. Smart As ( suprisingly fun! )

I bought alot more games than these but most didn't release in 2012. My top 5 wouldn't have changed anyways so it's not like the Vita games are there by default they out classed ALOT of console games.

top of my head

1. Xenoblade Chronicles
2. Dark Souls DLC: Artorias of the Abyss
3. FF XIII-2
4. Journey
5. Catherine

1. Xenoblade Chronicles
2. Pushmo
3. Kid Icarus: Uprising
4. The Last Story
5. Rhythm Heaven Fever
6. Nintendoland
7. Black Cops 2
8. Smite
9. Tribes: Ascend
10. Kirby Collection

A quiet but amazing year this year. Only wish my 3DS wasn't stolen so I could play more DS and 3DS games.

1. Dark Soul's (PC Release)
2. Hitman: Absolution (PC)
3. Final Fantasy XIII-2 (PS3)
4 Dishonored (PC)
5. Sleeping Dogs (PC)
6. Chaos Rings II (Ipad)
7. Binary Domain (PC)
8. The Walking Dead (PC)
9. Halo 4 (XBOX360)
10. Far Cry 3 (PC)

Didn't count Xenoblade, or witcher 2 (extended edition I want to put it :P) because I got it last year, those are most the games I played last year,

Darksiders 2, Assasins Creed 3, Mass Efffect 3, Last Story, and borderlands didn't make it. And I thought they were decently made games that were just boring. I don't think I played anything else. I'm Still waiting for Xcom to get cheap, but that will probably push other games off.

1. Journey

2. Guild Wars 2

3. Halo 4

4 Alan Wake

5. Spec Ops: The Line

6. The Walking Dead

7. AW: American Nightmare

8. Black Light: Retribution

9. Tribes Ascend

10. Hotline Miami

1. Hitman: Absolution.

2. Sonic & All-Stars Racing: Transformed.

3. Resident Evil: Revelations.

4. Binary Domain.

5. Sleeping Dogs.

6. Double Dragon: Neon.

7. Dust: An Elysian Tail.

8. Forza Horizon.

9. WWE '13

10. Halo 4.

All new games, decided not to include classics released on xbla/psn this year like Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown, Jet Set Radio, Sonic Advanture 2, Tony Hawk's HD etc.

1) Assassin's Creed III
2) Mass Effect 3
3) PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale
4) Assassin's Creed III: Liberation
5) Call of Duty Black Ops II
6) Uncharted: Golden Abyss
7) Max Payne 3
8) Transformers Fall of Cybertron
9) Far Cry 3
10) Street Fighter X Tekken
10)

Some of these games I didn't play till 2013, but I'll list them anyway. I don't own Halo 4 or Nintendoland, but I bought very few games that came out this year so I can't even list 10 games from 2012 that I own. Number 5 and up are all 9+ games imo. Most surprised by how much I'm currently enjoying Dark Souls. Seriously, if they didn't make coop with a specific friend so frustrating to accomplish this could have been one of the best games this gen.

1. Dark Souls(PC)
2. FTL
3. The Walking Dead
4. Halo 4
5. Xcom: Enemy Unknown
6. Counter Strike GO
7. Spec Ops: The Line
8. Dishonored
9. Nintendoland
10. Scribblenauts Unlimited

Got a new job in January last year so I haven't played 10 games this year due to commitments (well not played enough to judge properly anyway).

1. The Walking Dead
2. Mass Effect 3
3. Halo4
4. Assassins Creed 3
5. Machinarium (Android version)

Small mention to Skyrim which I only started playing towards the end of 2012 and has taken up a lot of time too even if it wasn't a 2012 game.

1. Mass Effect 3
2. Far Cry 3
3. Fifa 13
4. Persona 4 Golden
5. Dishonored
6. Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed
7. Gravity Rush
8. Final Fantasy XIII-2
9. Borderlands 2
10. Sleeping Dogs

Rather mediocre year imo.
Surprisingly, 4 out of 10 games are japanese ones!
