Say what you want about this year’s E3, but we’ve seen and playeda bunch of great gamesthis week. In fact, we were overwhelmed with all of the offerings, and narrowing down the selection to only one from all of the games in our 17 categories was pretty difficult.
You see, Hawkenwas amazing,Beyond: Two Soulswas beautiful, andMetal Gear Rising: Revengeanceis the most fun you’ll ever have with a katana-wielding cyborg.Tomb Raidertells a story I’ve always wanted to hear,Dishonoredturns stealth on its head, andPikmin 3is like a long-recurring dream finally coming true. But, even with as great as these all are, one stood above them this E3.
Destructoid is proud to awardThe Last of Usour Game of the Show award for E3 2012.
Show attendees never stopped talking about this game. Naughty Dog’s post-apocalyptic setting, gritty survival story, and the relationship between its two main characters, Joel and Ellie, have already made their way into the minds of gamers everywhere. This cross-country trip across a post-pandemic America looks to go far beyond their already excellentUnchartedseries in both setting and gameplay, and we can’t wait to see more of it.
