Top 10 Games of 2011

[Lypno]

Good taste! You don't seem to like FPS much, do you? Neither do I. I subscribed :)rib

[Zelda4u2]

You dont really said why you didnt spend more time on Skyrim.

[LegallyBlindGamer]

Hey, Stephanie. Did you get the Season Pass for Saints Row 3? I highly recommend it. Genli Bowl VII is hilarious.

[CreepersKO]

Is MW3 GOOD?!

[marcosity428]

Did you forget skyward sword?

[toptenvideogames]

Oh yeah you are so right 2012 is going to be an amazing year for games and what a cool list this is! i really want to play bastion and dead island and i will make room for those very soon.

[Bosch671]

Oh thats too bad no MW3.

[nabilahazwani88]

Bastion ic came out at Google Chrome

[BRADi28thelegand]

no black opps wtf

[MirzaK9]

@BRADi28thelegand because it sucked..

[SuperSoundwave100]

@BRADi28thelegand Black ops didn't came out in 2011

[jdivergh22]

nice vid!

[quinze3]

nice vid



[MikeJustesenFilms]

Saints Row The Third is one of the funniest 1000 Gamerpoint games i've gotten yet! AWESOME GAME.

[quickfreeze4]

Yes Dead Space 2 is a great game. Hell yea Mario Kart 7 is so awesome. I recently play the Uncharted trilogy and I am a HUGE fan of Naughty Dog now. Great List Steph

[merobb986]

I'm very surprised by no Skyward Sword or Arkham City.

[vain911]

really...saints row..Batman: Arkham City easyily trumps all that..just saying

[spiritsjoy]

I liked LOH-Trails in the Sky

[doginmylense]

Great list. I just picked up Rayman Origins I can't wait to check it out.

[ninjacape]

I picked Rayman Origins as my game of the year. But great list Steph!

[pedrohsp2]

nice list steph, i have a question, are you excited about the wii u release?

[noelh1234]

Uncharted 3 gave us high hopes and, compared to the 2nd one, wasn't as good but it's still a great game. Good choices.

[219garyind]

great top 10 Steph

[techblach67]

Yes!!!! I knew you were going to pick that for #1......I love the writing...and the insanity of that "Saintly" game....good pick!

[MrBacchus18]

Glad to see Monster Tale on your list, its a major sleeper.

[NintendoGamerTV]

I agree with you on the #1 game, Saints Row The Third is the best game of the year!!!!!

[mrjaman100]

how could you put skyrim at 10.

[beyondgoodhope]

I tink Monster Tale is better than most of the high profile releases that came out this year. Awsome list.

[ShayminRulz]

WHAT....?!?! i thought for sure Skyward Sword would be your #1 game! Its not even on the list?!

[AlexanderArts]

You know when Steph says "It's bananas!" then she really loves something. Well I liked Skyrim, and Deadspace 2 but most of the other games I didn't play - some because I didn't have the system, but others were badly reviewed. I could try to check them out when they get cheaper.

[awesomemusicandgames]

Some of my favorite games from last year are:

Rayman Origins

Assasins Creed Revelations

Alice Madness Return

Zelda Skyward Sword

And even tho I haven't finished it yet Xenoblade Chronicles are awesome! :)

[Lifeisboring09]

loved this vid because u showed us clips of the gameplay so it actually gave me a view of the game

[gamereviewsss]

loved the ds love in this!

[darkangel3812]

i cant believe how so many people liked saints row 3 because i absolutely dont like it because it never felt like the originals and most of the missions where the same thing and yes i do like sum stuff in it especial the beginning but after seeing the beginning mission then playin the game it was a big let down 4 me because the rest of the game didnt feel as great as the first mission

[bigbucks451]

pretty awesome steph! i am pretty stoked about the wii u and luigis mansion 2 and animal crossing 3d!! :D

[VinnysRapGameSnaps]

u got some real good games in there! loved mario kart 7 especially :) never tried super mario 3d land yet. never really knew if it was fully worth the retail price cuz i havent seen any used ones at my game shops

[mismos15]

OMG

Where is Batman ?????????????

[deadhippie61]

dark souls

[narutobboy]

Hi Steph!, i was wondering didn't you like Batman Arkham City?

[StephsTooDef]

@narutobboy I did. I finally got around to completing it last week. Really good game.

[ShyBoy6D9]

@StephsTooDef I can definitely understand it being difficult to choose. There were a few moments when I said Wait, how did she forget________ and ________?! but that's bound to happen with any Top 10 list. It doesn't look like 2012 will let up either, and I'm not sure if that's good or bad!

[Darro85]

I completely forgot about Dead Island and could have at it in my top 10 or at least honourable mentions.

Don't know if you've watched my video yet Steph but you have 4 games that were in mine also with Bastion being in the same place at 8. Saints Row: The Third is awesome and hence why it placed highly on my list.

Monster Tale is a game I've been meaning to pick up for a while now. Don't know if it came out here. Import if not. Great top 10 nonetheless!

[StephsTooDef]

@Darro85 Did you post it. I remembering you saying you were working on it but I never saw it in my sub box. I'll go check now.

Oh....and make sure you get your hands on Monster Tale. I'm sure you will love it!

[Darro85]

@StephsTooDef Yeah, posted it last week. Tweeted about it but I guessed your didn't notice them. Feed box on Youtube kind of sucks I guess.

[panter485]

Dead island also an underestimated game really fun to play for hours with m8's but its no fun on the xbox360

[StephsTooDef]

@panter485 Why isn't it fun on the 360?

[panter485]

@StephsTooDef well its fun but not as much you can mod it on pc the graphics are way better and the mods make the game more fun to like more missions and monsters shouts weapons magic and all of those things but sure its fun on the xbox360 but way better on the pc just sayin :)

[Marcus4833]

@StephsTooDef I have 3ds but I havn´t played Pokémon Rumble Blast.

[RCngneer]

@Marcus4833 if your thinking of getting pokemon rumble blast get its is preety fun and a bit of a step frome the rpg games

[panter485]

skyrim 10# lol x) would have been my number 1 and its way better on pc :)

[henryblazer20]

how did Just Dance 3 not make the list?????????? thumbs way down on this one :)

[StephsTooDef]

@henryblazer20 Lol.

[Anthology7IN]

Glad to see Dead Space 2 to get a mention. Youtuber's and Publications seem to have forgotten about it.

[0000Ishbo]

Very awesome list girl! :D My top one is skyrim haha

[Marcus4833]

My top 5 games are

5. Pokémon Heartgold. (ds)

4. Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. ( Game Boy Advance)

3. Pokémon Platinum. (ds)

2. Pokémon Black and White. (ds)

1. Age Of Empires Online (Pc)

[panter485]

@Marcus4833 Noob sebbe :D

[StephsTooDef]

@Marcus4833 Well alright. Do you have a 3DS? Have you played Pokemon Rumble Blast?

[NintendoFanFTW]

Great list! :D

[StephsTooDef]

@NintendoFanFTW Thank you.

[GamezOfWar]

Such great taste in games Steph!!

Great video all around,brilliantly edited!

[StephsTooDef]

@GamezOfWar Thank you, Joshua. It took me forever to edit this video. That's probably why I don't do videos like these too often. lol.

[Pokemonisepic1]

My top 5 games are (these games have been relaesed before 2011 exept for 2-3 games)

5. Pokémon Heartgold. (ds)

4. Zelda Ocarina Of Times. (3ds)

3. Supermario 3d land. (3ds)

2. Pokémon Black and White. (ds)

1. Call Of Duty World At War. ( Xbox-360)

[DaJoshDude]

@Pokemonisepic1 Naww CoD 4 was better than WaW in my opinion

[StephsTooDef]

@Pokemonisepic1 Cool!

[nano69ify]

I am so glad it wasn't skyrim. Well my top 10 were.... 10 Mario Kart 7 9 Dissidia Final Fantasy 012 8 Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time 3D. 7 Little Big Planet 2 6 Pokemon Black & White 5 Super Mario 3D Land 4 Disgaea 4 3 Uncharted 3 2 Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword 1 Hyperdimension Neptunia.

[metalmayhem007]

@nano69ify Why is hyperdimension neptunia your number 1? just curious i have it and i think it was quite bad i did enjoy the script but i hated the shares aspect and i quit playing because i got stuck.

[StephsTooDef]

@nano69ify Love that list. I haven't played a few of those games.

[MrGameFreak174]

Great list a lot of great game's i did my top 10 video if you can check it out, Great vid

[StephsTooDef]

@MrGameFreak174 I'll check it out. 

[COBYZ831]

what weres skylanders?

[StephsTooDef]

@COBYZ831 Skylanders gets an honorable mention. I'm glad I had an opportunity to play such a fun game this year. 

[bubbles4buttons]

straight away i loved this top 10 because skyrim was 10 not 1!

[StephsTooDef]

@bubbles4buttons Skyrim seems to be a lot of peoples #1. I didn't spend enough time with it to give it that honor.

[apurdaneta]

Batman was pretty good

[StephsTooDef]

@apurdaneta Yes it was. I started off with that on my list. It definitely gets an honorable mention from me.

[waskwask83]

Nice list , ive just completed uncharted 3 , unfortunately yeh it wasnt as great as the second one T_T i didn't WOW me either what a shame but nice game overall

[StephsTooDef]

@waskwask83 Agreed. I mean it did WOW me but not like Uncharted 2 did. I think Naughty Dog set the bar so high with Uncharted 2 that it was going to be hard for Uncharted 3 to keep up.

[waskwask83]

@xxxHDP74xxx well thats Ur opinion ,, dead space 2 was my fav althogh it REALLY disapointed me at the same time

[jannefinland]

1. Deus Ex: Human Revolution

2. Saints Row: The Third

3. Modern Warfare 3

4. Skyrim

5. Rage

6. Battlefield 3

7. Portal 2

8. LA Noire

9. Outland

10. Duke Nukem Forever

[StephsTooDef]

@jannefinland Good stuff there. A few of those games will be in my overlooked '11 games that is coming soon.

[evilbeaver181]

my number 1 is dark souls, not for everyone but i loved it.

[StephsTooDef]

@evilbeaver181 That's another game I want to try out despite the fact that I got nowhere in Demon Souls.

[LyricalMasterMind1]

Good list!

[tierreallen]

No skyward sword?

[StephsTooDef]

@tierreallen Nope...not this time. I'm sure once I get around to playing more of it, I'll love it.

[pdowski1976]

my top 10 1. Skyrim 2.Uncharted Drakes Deception 3. Assassins Creed Revalations 4. Batman Arkham City 5. NHL12 6. Madden12 7.NBA 2k12 8. Saints Row The 3RD 9. WWE '12 10. Dead Island

[StephsTooDef]

@pdowski1976 Nice list!

[pdowski1976]

All good games! But you forgot Assassins Creed Revalations!

[slammajamma8]

SR3 #1? and sorry but dead island SUCKS!!! IMO

[StephsTooDef]

@slammajamma8 Everyone's entitled to their own opinion so you don't have to be sorry for that.

[ShadowForce44]

@StephsTooDef when you said number 1 i was expecting skyword sword to be there. what number would it be (cool list by the way)

[StephsTooDef]

@ShadowForce44 I'm ashamed that I didn't get a chance to play more Skyward Sword. I'm planning on getting around to it soon!

[Mariohenri90]

wow it's been a long time!How have you been?

[StephsTooDef]

@Mariohenri90 I've been well. How have you bee?

[callmemarc]

It's Bananas!

[StephsTooDef]

@callmemarc Yes it is! :)

[MeetingFlipper]

great list Steph, I didnt think I would get so addicted to saints row the third but I ended up putting 70 hours in and i am still playing it lol, great video steph :D

[StephsTooDef]

@MeetingFlipper Thanks! Saints Row The Third definitely surprised me. It really is a blast to play. Did you get the DLC?

[MeetingFlipper]

@StephsTooDef sadly I didnt but maybe soon i might haha did u?

[ShyBoy6D9]

I could never do a Top 10 for 2011. If I had to pick a #1, it'd probably change every time I was asked, because there are just so many amazing games. I normally don't play my games multiple times through until months or even years later when I just feel like playing them again, but this year, I found myself playing through multiple games multiple times.

Thank you for not making Skyrim #1. Makes the list more interesting. :P

[StephsTooDef]

@ShyBoy6D9 It was so hard trying to find the correct order for the games, and even harder booting some off of the list. So many great games came out last year!

[NintyFanboy64]

love u steph your the best!

[StephsTooDef]

@NintyFanboy64 Thank you! Awww...you're making me blush. :-P

[beyoncefan2382]

Great list! Super Mario 3D Land and Mario Kart 7 are def. on my top 10 list as well.

[StephsTooDef]

@beyoncefan2382 Sweet. Both of those games are awesome.

[xxkomebackkidxx]

Great seeing a list where Skyrim isnt number 1. I liked a good amount of your picks as well but I can't find Dead Island anywhere in town and I so want to get my hands on that.

[StephsTooDef]

@xxkomebackkidxx You can't find Dead Island? Have you tried Amazon?

[suiton629]

@StephsTooDef LOL I still haven't started Dead Space 2.. =P Also still haven't gotten a 3DS (not enough money & waiting for a new model) and still didn't get Mario Kart 7. I got Uncharted 3 but still didn't start that one either... But is Uncharted 3 really it? There's Golden Abyss and I think we could get 1 more Uncharted game. Saint's Row 3 is your favorite? Hm.. Not mine since I don't play open world sandbox games (Saint's Row, GTA, etc).

[metalmayhem007]

@suiton629 Uncharted 4 is very likely to be on Ps4 and i am certain there will be one along with another one on vita. Naughty dog have said that they will make more uncharted as long as people want them. So there is no way this is the end of uncharted since it has become sony's flagship series.

[StephsTooDef]

@suiton629 Hopefully we get another Uncharted game but apparently 3 was the end of the trilogy. Yes, Saints Row is a gem.

[StephsTooDef]

@suiton629 Oh....if you can find some time for Dead Space 2. It's pretty awesome.

[AshXXMayftw]

I'm not fussing about Steph but it seems Skyward Sword is just a forgotten piece of art.

[TheMountainman14]

Awesome list. I love Rayman Origins myself. It's disappointing that the game has sold so poorly. It did launch at a bad time with Skyrim MW3 and Zelda all coming out around the same time.

[xxxHDP74xxx]

@TheMountainman14 rayman is better than all those 3 combined

[StephsTooDef]

@TheMountainman14 I'm stunned that a game as awesome as Rayman Origins isn't selling that well. I plan on doing a video on this game and hopefully that can open up some eyes to this title.

[ddhhT]

good list

[StephsTooDef]

@ddhhT Thanks.

[relewis2011]

Nathan Drake just filed a divorce with you, Steph, for not deeming his game, GOTY ;) LOL

Really excellent list here, Steph! What's hilarious is the fact that I only played ONE, yes, ONE game on your list here. I do plan to play and buy the vast majority of the games on your list, though, especially Rayman Origins, MK7, Mario 3D Land and DEFINITELY Saint's Row the Third. The game looks like a blast to play, so I cannot wait to get my hands on it.

Great video as always!!!

[StephsTooDef]

@relewis2011 I know....he's probably really disappointed in me. I still love him though. You're going to have a blast playing through those games. They're great.

Thanks for the support, Rusty.

[mymarleyisgone]

Killing zombies is gonna be A LOT better in 2012 and here is why :D

Resident Evil revelations for 3DS

Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City

and...

wait for it

RESIDENT EVIL 6

[StephsTooDef]

@mymarleyisgone You're right. All 3 Resident Evil (alone) will keep up the zombie trend! Can't wait.

[Five500Hundred]

1. Uncharted 3

2. Portal 2

3. LittleBigPlanet 2

I didn't game last year as much as I usually do, but those are my top three picks. Are you getting SSX, Steph?

[StephsTooDef]

@Five500Hundred Nice. I'm playing through Portal 2 a little bit at a time right now. It's super clever!

Yes I am getting SSX!

[Snestastic]

Great choices Steph, i'm also still playing Saints Row at the moment. Just driving round killing the other gangs and doing side missions now, it's a fantastic game :)

[StephsTooDef]

@Snestastic That's awesome. I spent a few hours doing that! Enjoy the game.

[EDDY2553]

SKYRIM<3 your missing out I put 200 hours in skyrim and I'm RANK 81

[StephsTooDef]

@EDDY2553 Nice. I doubt I'm missing out. I totally don't have 200 hours to just devote to Skyrim.

[schniEEF0R]

wtf

[StephsTooDef]

@schniEEF0R Wtf? What's the wtf about?

[NestieXD]

Is there anything better than having lunch at subways and watching ur vids? I dont think so. Most of ur top 10 I like as well. I am sure the 3ds will have its break through this year. Hopefully the psp vita won't flop. A friend of mine recommend saints row 3 to me and I have to admit it cannot get any crazier than this. 007, mission impossible? All bull crap compared to it. I love it. Keep ur vids coming :-)

[StephsTooDef]

@NestieXD Well I'm glad I could entertain you while you were having lunch. The 3DS is hot right now and as long as it keeps up that momentum I'm sure it will be fine. The Vita won't flop....it's just way too sexy! LOL.

[iLiamlolama]

@StephsTooDef It was nice to see nintendo games because i'm a nintendo freak but Steph I was 100% sure that Uncharted 3 would be the top but no, and I was surprised that Skyward Sword wasn't in the top but it wasn't in mine and I only have nintendo consoles :) and with your DS collection video are you going to show your 3DS collection. Keep up the videos.

[StephsTooDef]

@iLiamlolama As long as Nintendo keeps me happy I'll continue to show them love. I figured people would be surprised that Uncharted 3 didn't make my #1. I just couldn't do it....It didn't impress as much as the top 3 games didn. DS collection will be up at the end of this month (or beginning of February) and no I will not be showing my 3DS collection with that.

[hangia]

It's nice to see Dead Island on this list. I got the game on launch and I didn't experience any bugs or glitches. I got 1000 points of achievements too so it's not like I didn't explore the entire game. I was actually disappointing with the updated they made with the patch created. I hate the fact that kicking now takes away your stamina. Oh well though, at least I got to play it before they ruined it.

[StephsTooDef]

@hangia Glad to hear someone else enjoyed the game. I think I enjoyed it more because I didn't have high expectations coming into the experience. I've got to go back and get the DLC and prepare myself for the new DLC coming out soon.

[DragonballVsZelda]

where's skyward sword? >.< I agree with you about super mario 3d land (: it's amazing

[StephsTooDef]

@DragonballVsZelda Skyward Sword is still sitting on my self. I just haven't spent enough time with it.

[jacksplicer0292]

saints row beat uncharted i respect your opinion but im going to have to disagree 

[StephsTooDef]

@jacksplicer0292 I'm not claiming that Saints Row is the better game. That obviously isn't the case. The rankings in the list are based upon how much fun I had with the game and the impression that it left on me. I still love Uncharted 3, but as I said it just wasn't as epic as the 2nd one.

[link100zelda]

I was surprise Skyward sword was not on the list, Saints row is good too though but i'm more a nintendo freak xD

[StephsTooDef]

@link100zelda I was surprised as well. Skyward Sword is a game I need to spend more time with ASAP!

[StephsTooDef]

@SOLIDSNAKEXXX360 Highly doubtful. I just got around to playing it too late. It really doesn't have anything to do with me playing it on the PC or the console.

[TheSuperGamerss]

I Have Rayman for Xbox360, Got to me one of my top 5! :D

[StephsTooDef]

@TheSuperGamerss Awesome! Such a gem.

[TheSuperGamerss]

@StephsTooDef I Use to play it alot when i was like 9 or 10 and to get it back is just great, hope you had a good new year! :)

[yuchubbijos]

wow! skyrim at 10th! can't wait to see your other games



[StephsTooDef]

@yuchubbijos Skyrim was #10 because I started playing it late in December. If I would have played more of it I'm sure it would have been higher on my list.

[antrite08]

2011 was crazy for video games towards the end of the year! doesn't look like it's going to let up in 2012 with the vita coming out and the wii u! my wallet stay's sad lol!

[StephsTooDef]

@antrite08 I know. There is so much coming out this year. It's a great time to be a gamer but I also have to make sure I can still save some money.

[Locheyz]

pretty good list :D

[StephsTooDef]

@Locheyz Thanks.
