I'm a Borderlands 2 fanboy :fp:

But it does cover, action, adventure, RPG and shooter elements pretty well, although I gave the last to Halo because it was fairly decent. Held my attention the most, bar wipeout 2048 this year in games.

I haven't played nearly as much this year as I'd usually play. First 3 or 4 months it was all Skyrim and Zelda, middle of the year it was all handhelds, end of year Borderlands 2 basically.

I think Vita, for it seemly to have little coming out for it, is actually the handheld of the year for me, its been played more than the 3DS, although that will probably change at Xmas with a new Layton and Paper Mario to look forward to. But wipeout, gravity rush, Virtue's Last Reward, everybody's golf and escape plan AND then the classics like FF tactics and all those PSP RPG's, its just a great little system.

Not sure I can vote as I've not played much this year, but this thread and talk on NeoGAF made me check out The Walking Dead. It's a brilliant game! Would be refreshing for something non-AAA to win an award like this.
