Let's face it: There were a lot of great Video Games released this year. Some were good, and some were bad. That being said, here are the ones I enjoyed the most:
Shin Megami Tensei IV

Shin Megami Tensei IV is a 3DS RPG from the Shin Megami Tensei series of RPGs. (Obviously). Featuring a System similar to Pokemon, you have to persuade Demons to join your party and shape the world into one of your choice. One that falls under the Rule of God, one that falls under the Rule of Lucifer, or one under the rule of Humanity. I've played tons of RPGs in my time, and this one feels like a fresh take on the Genre, despite having been done before. It's quite an improvement over it's predecessor, Nocturne, and it can be made to be a lot easier, or a lot harder, depending on your tastes.
Grand Theft Auto V

Grand Theft Auto V is an open-world Action Game. Following in the footsteps of it's successful, but clunky prequel, it makes some subtle, but brilliant changes to the Gameplay of GTA IV, which makes it far more playable than IV, which in turn enables it to be more fun. Despite a poor launch of the online component, Rockstar was responsive to the complaints of the players and made it work, creating one of the more fun titles for 2013.
Pokemon X

Pokemon X is the latest game, along with Pokemon Y, in the Pokemon Series of games. Featuring the familiar gameplay we've come to know and love, it added more features to the age-old formula, giving it a fresh new style. It's also quite emotional, especially at the end. I never thought a Pokemon Game could touch my heart with it's story, but this one did, and that's why it is awesome. I can't wait to see how the developers top this one.
Now, what is the one true Game of the Year in my opinion? Well... 
Killer Instinct

Killer Instinct is the long awaited Sequel to Killer Instinct 2, which was released over a decade ago in Arcades, and honestly, I could never ask for a more worthy sequel to it. This game is fighting game perfection. I've never been too good at fighting games, but I can play this one easily. More content is coming to it next year, and the Ultra Edition includes the original Killer Instinct. To put it simple terms, I love this game, and it is the very definition of awesome.
Well, that's it. See you all next post!
