Best of the Rest: Mike's picks of 2011
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine
This game was listed right after Skyrim, Batman: Arkham City, and Portal 2 at number four in my top five of the year, and I think it deserves that spot, even over higher-profile contenders like Gears of War 3 and Modern Warfare 3. The pitch-perfect pacing and incredible setting (I am now a die-hard Black Library reader -- start with the great Eisenhorn by Dan Abnett) elevate this one from just another third-person action game to one of the best video games of the year.
