Best
Dark Souls (PC)
Worst
Dark Souls (PC) - Three and a half months later and there's still not an official patch for, at minimum, increasing the resolution. A PhD student spent 3 weeks creating his patch, and 2 weeks and 6 days of that time he didn't even have the game. The game is unplayable with a keyboard. I can't shit on the quality of this port enough.
Most Overrated
Diablo 3 - I played through up to Inferno on 2 characters only for lack of other co-op games to play, and I wish I hadn't because it really just kind of sucks.
Dumbest Feature
Auction House in Diablo 3 - Hey, let's implement a random loot system to entice players with the prospect of scoring that rare and powerful item, then completely undermine it by just letting them buy and sell anything putting into sharper focus what a boring grind our dumb game is.
Runner-up: Real Money Auction House in Diablo 3 - People that use this are the people that need their taxes raised. At least buy a boat or two chicks at once, instead of spending money on a fucking random number generator.
Funniest Moment
I will never stop imitating the wheezy overacting of Cain.
Best RPG
Dragon's Dogma - This also wins for "Best Game That Needs a Sequel," "Best Game That Needs Co-op," and "Game I Can't Load Into Fast Enough Before the Title Music Turns Fruity."
Best Game I Agree With Last About
Mark of the Ninja - I guess this also wins for best indie game.
