Probably Sleeping dogs, Deadly Premonition, Shadows of the Damned, Stranglehold, Vanquish and Metro: Last Light =D

I keep hearing a lot about Vanquish, may need to check that up!

GOW: Ascension - The best combat I've experienced in any GOW game despite its minor flaws.
Gravity Rush - A fun and rewarding experience. Very memorable as well.
Beyond: 2 Souls - A great game that deviates from the norm.
Darksiders
Darksiders 2 - Both this and its predecessor were fine action games and were sorely under appreciated.
Playstation All Stars: Battle Royale - I had a blast with this. Far from perfect, but it was still fun.
Sly: TiT - Old school platforming at its finest this year.
Puppeteer - A decent platformer that kept me glued to the TV.
Rayman Origins - Same as above. I wish these games were appreciated more.



 

Playstation = The Beast from the East

Sony + Nintendo = WIN! PS3 + PSV + PS4 + Wii U + 3DS

Try demo first, to see if it's your kind of game.

viva panta, last story, harvest moon tree of tranquility, godfater 1 the game, naruto rise of the ninja.

Still have to play The Last Story, currently hanging out on my shelf. Rise of the Ninja was great, but I preferred Broken Bond.

Third Birthday. The story was bad but entertaining in a videogamey sort of way (opposite of what parasite eve is though), but the gameplay was fun with a lot of interesting mechanics. Music was amazing.

Alpha Protocol. The shooting was terrible, but the decision making system was like like mass

Trails in the Sky. This is underrated by critics not fans (fans rate it quite highly). My favorite overall JRPG in last 10 years other than Persona 3 FES, and TWEWY.

alpha protocol is a really great stealth /spy game(imo 88%) with a good story,but as soon as you play it as shooter it is a 40% game with horrible AI)
really hard to rate it fair



twisted metal and starhawk come to mind. bastion too. ohh and PS all stars, that game is so fun (even though its name sucks)

Sly 4
great game.Made me wish to beat up several reviewers(those guys who rate the 45th sequel of the 749th always the same fps constantly 88% but downrating this game for lack of innovation etc)

kameo
Great game but low sales numbers.Don't know why boring,skillfree fable3 can sell 5 millions whilethis can't

blue dragon-by far best current gen rpg imo(must admitt:haven't played xenoblade),great story,great gameplay,nice design good graphics

Holy crap! I forgot about Sly 4. Really loved that game and I hope they bring the Sly Collection to Vita. I'm hoping Sanzuru is working on Sly 5 for PS4/Vita!! I personally wasn't too big on Blue Dragon, but it was overlooked.

yeah I didn't edit my thing completely. I was going to take it out for your reasons.

But I agree. It's more of a hard game to rate because it does some things great. And some things absolutely terrible. Depending on how much you can ignore the absolutely terrible things is how much you'd like the game.
