Video games can be many things to many people, so the idea of proclaiming a single one as the best of 2012 strikes us as a little limiting. This year, instead of screaming at each other for hours in a sweaty, smoke-filled room until we emerge with a handful of winners, your friends at 1UP have decided to forsake categorization and write about the experiences that brought us the most enjoyment this year -- and that's the point of playing video games, isn't it?
Games can fill a lot of roles in our lives. If we want to immerse ourselves in a good story, The Walking Dead can step up. The social lubricant of an online experience allows us to connect with friends via World of Warcraft and Call of Duty. If we're seeking nostalgia, Nintendo has the entire Virtual Console library at our disposal. We can make a bus ride go faster with Tetris, or reflect on our lives with Braid. A versatile medium, indeed.
