I know this is a couple months early, but 90% of the major games have been released and this place is DEAD. So why not? Haha. You can list games from any console, but only ones that have been RELEASED in 2013. No one gives a shit about the old games you decided to play this year. Haha.
What were the best games you played in 2013?
Here's my list...

Here's my list...
5.)
Tomb Raider
8.5/10
I had my doubts when this was first announced. Thankfully I ignored them and bought this day one. A great game. Not an Uncharted clone like I had originally feared. ( And yes, I know... Uncharted was heavily inspired by the original Tomb Raider. It just took all that stuff and improved it a 100%) It had a great story, decent voice acting and excellent graphics. A great origin story for Lara Croft.
4.)
Grand Theft Auto V
9/10
Easily the best GTA game yet. I really enjoyed having the story split between three characters. Trevor was by far the best character, followed by Franklin and then Michael. It looked great, had some great missions and was just nice to have an enormous game area to run amok in again.
3.)
Batman: Arkham Origins
9.25/10
Another game I was very skeptical about. The first two Arkham games are some of the best ever made. But then I heard Rocksteady weren't making it, and that Conroy & Hamill wouldn't be voicing the leads. It didn't look good. WB Montreal hit a home run though. This easily lived up the the Arkham name. I'd say it was the second best of the series. Baker killed it as the Joker and Roger Craig Smith was a very good Batman.
2.)
BioShock Infinite
9.75/10
An incredible game. Duh. The story was awesome, the characters great and again, it looked fabulous. I think I've said it on here before, but I wasn't a huge fan of moving away from Rapture but I knew they had pretty much used that place up. Columbia might have been even better. Definitely a game I need to beat again in the near future.
1.)
The Last of Us
9.95/10
Proof that Naughty Dog owned this generation. A brutal, unforgiving story that gave new life to the tired post-apocalyptic/zombie story. Joel & Ellie's relationship was second to only Lee & Clementine's, from last year's Telltale's The Walking Dead. The story was exceptional, getting darker and more disturbing as it went along. All in all, almost a perfect game.
