all Luca.

Except for blunder of the year. That belongs to reddit and the plague of MRA's, militant atheists, and the great pedocaust of 2k11 (aka, the downfall of r/jailbait)


And with strange aeons, even Death may lay down in the street and die.

Figured I'd bump the thread with my own answer.

Literature:
lol

Games:
Best Overall Game: Bastion. Holy crap, really really really well done. Story was easy to get into, gameplay was simple and fun, and that narrator!
Best Arcade/Independent Game: Bastion. See above.
Best "AAA" Release: Didn't really buy many big releases this year. I'd probably say Skyward Sword just because it did keep me occupied for a few weeks.
Best Multiplayer Game: Magicka
Biggest Disappointment: L.A. Noire
Worst Overall Game: L.A. Noire

Movies:
Favorite Film: Rise of the Planet of the Apes. No, seriously.
Favorite Actor/Actress: None
Biggest Surprise: Rise of the Planet of the Apes.
Best Trailer: Super 8
Worst Film: Thor. I'm very lucky this year, could've been much worse.

Music:
Don't even think I bought any music this year. Mainly just freebies off the internet and other crap.

Overall:
Favorite Internet Video: BLONIC
Blunder of the Year: SOPA and PIPA bills.

Well, I'm hungry.

And I have nothing of value to contribute to this thread.

Thanks.
