Our movie podcast was posted Sunday, and after that I felt a little dirty about calling it “The Best Movies of 2012″. Are these really the best games of 2012? That’s what we think, but that’s because they were our favorites. Enough rambling, Rick and I each wrote a list of our 10 favorite games in order, here is our combined list in reverse order.

Favorite Video Games of 2012

Just Dance 4 – Reviewed by Conan O’Brien
On October - 1 - 2012
Conan doesn’t play video games, or particularly like them, but he’s been reviewing them. In his latest edition of “Clueless Gamer” he plays the yet-to-be-released Just Dance 4 with international women’s soccer star Alex Morgan. Check out the video below.
Build Your Fortune in the Virtual World
On August - 29 - 2012
Guild Wars 2 came out Tuesday (or at 12:01AM midnight Saturday if you’re hardcore). A couple days before that they released this infographic created by an economist about the Guild Wars 2 economy/ economic system. It shed some light on how to make money within the game and what isn’t going to make you much. Like how chests and found gold is the lowest of the low, and questing isn’t going to make you in-game rich. But crafting and crafting materials can make you very rich. Jewelers tend to make much more than other in-game professions.
Anyway, feel free to click on the graph above to enlarge it and see for yourself.
Sony’s Puppeteer
On August - 15 - 2012
Sony recently announced Puppeteer at Gamescom in Germany, and it looks like a very interesting game. You play as a puppet during a show in a world that moves around you, and you use a pair of scissors as a weapon. Check out the debut trailer and some more info below.
OUYA’s Kickstarter Complete
On August - 9 - 2012
They asked for $950K, but instead they got over $8.5 million. That’s quite a large difference. If you didn’t get in on the Kickstarter campaign you’ll have to wait until OUYA hits store shelves.
More Deaths Than The Descent
On July - 30 - 2012
Spelunky is a DAMN good game. It’s hard, sure, but when you succeed at anything within it it is extremely satisfying. Plus, a lot of your deaths(and there will be a LOT of deaths) just end up being humorous. Unless it’s frustrating, they can be frustrating. This game requires patience, but it will reward that with hours of fun.
Check out a short video review below.
Drift & Smash
On July - 30 - 2012
If Fast & The Furious: Tokyo Drift is one of your favorite movies, or you just like watching cars smash into each other, then Dirt Showdown is the game for you. Check out the video review below.
Like Portal, Only Not
On July - 29 - 2012
Quantum Conundrum is a great game. It’s an Airtight Games/Square Enix first-person puzzle game designed by Kim Swift (one of the designers of the first Portal). Check out our video review below.
