[KWelch60]

thank god saints row the third did not win ! that game is SHIT !

[SuperMarioandSonic]

Does gamespot have something against nintendo. Not saying that arkham city was bad. I just liked skyward sword was better

[ronvnkl232]

@SuperMarioandSonic of course they have aomething against nintendo like pretty much almost every gaming site

[Pockydon]

All of the games on this list are amazing games and i think they all deserve it in their own way, but for me L.A Noire is my preferred game .

[Mr13X13]

where the fuck is AC: Revelations??

[PePsiilingo]

@devin9402 You cant say better

U3 grahpis on a 4-5year old fat PS3 with almost full space works like a brand new gaming PC for 950bucks

Batman is a good game but after you beat the campaign you have nothing

In u3 you have MP atlest and a 7-9hours campaing

[devin9402]

i love batman and its beter than uncharted 3 but im suprised it beat uncharted

[RedMage86]

@devin9402 If you know it's better than Uncharted 3 than why are you surprised? Uncharted 3 wasn't very good anyway

[TheCaptainEpic]

@RedMage86 Uncharted 3 was great? What are you talking about?

[ronvnkl232]

@TheCaptainEpic yes it is great but uncharted 2 was better (in the campaign)

[XsharkunX]

Zelda Skyward Sword, best game of the year. :)

[DfeNsIvEmAn52]

don't say shit haters. it's the goddamn batman.

[jpkrox]

@ps31871 - Don't judge a book by its cover , in this case , don't judge a game by its genre .

[shadlad91]

Um ..maybe i am missing something but how does a game that's plagued with so many problems that are still to be fixed right get a award ? I have the PC version and it runs like crap ,stutters and many more things yet i come here and i see them getting awards for a shit job. The first batman kicked ass and i am damn sure the actual story and game play of this one is great but how do i congrats some one on a half done game. get it to run right and smooth then will give u the award.

[9htsky]

@shadlad91 maybe ur pc sucks

[shadlad91]

@9htsky well if a AMD Phenom II 965 Black Edition Quad Core OCed at 3.8 ghz , 8GB of DDR3 ram along with a AMD HD6990 video card and Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit cant run this game at a solid 60fps when it can BF3 and Crysis 2 with Maldos high res texture mod , plus many more including the first bat man, well id say it is the game that sucks programing wise not my PC. Do some research, people with even more powerful PCs then mine are having the same issues.

[ps31871]

@Romario3210 no cus i dont play stupid crap!

[Sanadzappy123]

and sr3

[Sanadzappy123]

l,a noire and ac revalations ftw

[ps31871]

Batman? They are stupid and retarted!

[Romario3210]

@ps31871 have u played the game?

[haseo0815]

Isnt Deus Ex an RPG?

[buzol111]

TARGET: Best Action Adventure Game

Batman Arkham Asylum: MISSION COMPLETE

Batman: Arkham City: MISSION COMPLETE

Batman: Arkham World: In progress



[theredeemedshow]

stupid adds,13 vids to see,so 13*30secs is zeven and half minutes of adds sighs

[topografer]

It was close between UC3 and Batman i think but batman was indeed better, actually it was better than any game this year for me.. BTW why is deus ex in this category again?

[FalconEyez51]

double nerd orgasm when i saw this and the new dark knight trailer ! aaaaaah love batman

[goatfather66]

today is the day for Bat's fan ;)

Rocksteady release new dlc free today for us as a early Christmas present

[t2lotus]

he looks so sad

[faustrocket565]

I just finished the zsasz part and about to go into the stell mill with most of the missions and trophies done and I'm having a blast, I'm already looking forward to the next BATMAN game and finally while watching this I was playing the red hood track of the bridge just making more eager to play the game more (it may not be epic but it's my favorite track.

[TheMechaninja]

Uncharted doesn't fit into this group of games, in Saints row, arkham city and noire are free roamers, UC3 is strictly story and multiplayer.

[Mirata87]

@TheMechaninja But it's still action, so it fits

[haseo0815]

@TheMechaninja LA Noire is a sorry excuse for an open world, on top of that this is best action adventure as in epic action set pieces which Uncharted acheives in

[batmanunleashed]

Arkham City is just... overwhelming. You'd think that you've seen a good Batman villain then Rocksteady gives you someone else, then after that, another big one. They went through all these lengths to give us gamers the maximum Batman experience, and also giving us 3 characters more to play around with, not only that, they added skins to the players, and more challenge maps. Just truly outstanding work by Rocksteady. Thank you so much for this beautiful game.

[GoochOwnsYou]

How did an RPG get nominated as an Action Adventure game?

[iranmanesh15]

Congratulations to Batman Arkham City! It truly deserves to win for it's very dark edgy and amazing atmosphere, it's well written story, it's phenomenal voice acting especially Mark Hamill and Kevin Conroy, it's layered dimensional and entertaining characters, and it's unforgettable kick ass action!!! This is coming from an Uncharted fan. I also love Uncharted 3 but I love Arkham City much more it just amazed me more besides Uncharted 2 was also better than 3 in my opinion! Long Live Arkham City

[jakeel85]

Well deserved.

[clotz15]

Batman: Arkham City IS the best!

[SulfurousReview2]

Cool

[Jamesshadowlorder]

Batman arkham city is the only game here that has the best animations.

[KingdomSlayah]

Wooo for Batman!!! Even though i wished Uncharted 3 won

[rohanmystery]

Incidentally, The Dark Knight Rises trailer released today :D, Go Batman Arkham City

[FrogDude14]

Warms my heart...

[portealactico]

Definitivamentee Batman fue el mejor juego del an'o for sure !

[crazyguyinmak77]

haters gunna hate. Batman Arkham City was a masterpiece of the Batman mythos

[Danisgt1]

I Finished This Game One Hundred Times...

AND STILL LOVED IT!

[blackwolf4885]

BATMAN ROCKS 100% YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheDufase19089]

BATMAN ARKHAM CITY FTW!!!

[OldSchoolgamerNZ]

Deus Ex: HR is still the better game IMO

[MrMixer108]

Saints Row 3 and Uncharted 3 are the best in this category imo, they made you feel like you were in some crazy amazing action movie. I actually hated the first Batman game (Arkham Asylum?), so I never really gave this one a chance. Is it better?

[oblivion69inception]

Batman is great but Uncharted is above its quality...

[brownsugarcandie2007]

It shouldn't have EVEN been doubted that Batman wouldn't have won. I mean, it's been winning every award, from just about every gaming channel, and TV show, and online, that were doing VGA's. x)

[blainecol]

@brownsugarcandie2007 Batman is the winner by far for action adventure.

[brownsugarcandie2007]

@blainecol In your opinion. My opinion varies.

[blainecol]

@brownsugarcandie2007 What game do you believe should have won? I liked Uncharted 3 allot but I liked Arkham City just a little bit more I mean the story and the voice acting was phenomenal, I haven't seen voice acting in a game that good in a long time, and the characters were awesome and vivid, I liked uncharted 3 allot the story was great but the characters to me i don't know... just didn't click, and the voice acting was really good, just Arkham City was amazing.

[brownsugarcandie2007]

@blainecol I loved SO many games this year. I'd go with UC3, since I've been a fan of Naughty Dog, for quite awhile.So I know the quality of gaming to expect from them as devs. But, I also love Batman as well, watched my bro play the 1st one, he just never got time to pick up AC. I also love SR3. The missions were action packed, & created characters fit RIGHT into the game,& it feels more alive, voice work, and everything. Defiantly a step up from SR2. This is a great year for gaming.

[sheeshumer100000]

im gonna have to go with l.a. noire, don't get me wrong, i played the rest of the games but la noire was just plain awesome and it is one of the most unique games I have seen in a while. rockstar u did keep on bringing out good games, also the game style u get in the game, is not offered by other games on the market. im pretty confident abt that.

but then again this is my OPINION!

:-)

[thegamingwarhero]

@sheeshumer100000 yes it was a good game, but I don't think it was the best action game, cuz it was mostly more of a puzzle.

[sheeshumer100000]

@thegamingwarhero dude i said that's my OPINION! and it clearly says action ADVENTURE game...

[thegamingwarhero]

@sheeshumer100000 it does yes, but the other games showcased here contain more actual action than L.A. Noire. But you can have your opinion I'm fine with that.

[sheeshumer100000]

@thegamingwarhero thx for at least excepting my opinion ;-)

[texas224]

Assassins Creed Revelations.. a pity..

[GoldBasicFriend]

Oh Nooooooooooo!

[chrispen9]

Batman?....guys, you're making the wrong choices....it should have been Uncharted 3.

[TheFrassKilla]

@chrispen9 have u played through batman arkham city?

[eagleboy2030]

@chrispen9 In what universe?

[polltery]

I SHOUTED "YESSS" WHEN I SAW BATMAN!! =D

[clubbrugge17]

[CartoonsConnections]

[flare4488]

Let me start off I own all these games and they all r wonderful and I agree, batman should win in every way.NOW TIME FOR ARKHAM WORLD!!!!! Jk

[WannabeTheAwesomest]

@flare4488 I totally agree! BTW Arkham World would be EPIC!!! Can't wait to get the game for my birthday.

[flare4488]
