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?
To be perfectly frank, video games about war generally don't have a whole lot to say. Your protagonist is usually an infallible American hero who can give and take damage like the lead in a summer blockbuster. Your guns are generally pointed at some various shades of foreign invaders with backstories as shallow as a kiddie pool. And then there's the plot...well, the less we say about the plot of most action games, the better. It's with this low bar that I entered Spec Ops: The Line. After I was done, everything had changed.
