2012 Showies: mini of the Year

Image
Nominate your PlayStation mini of the year. This is one of the favorite categories of The Showies. Leave a comment here or tweet the hashtag #2012Showiesmini. I don't play a lot of minis but when I do I play Wizorbs. It's by far the best and most well-rounded mini I have ever played. Who doesn't want an RPG block breaking game? Dungeon crawling while I break blocks, use potions and unlock chests. Yes, it's that good.

2012 Showies: Best Game You Haven't Played

Image
Nominate the best game that you have not played yet. It's that game that you want to play so bad, but something always prevents you. It can be any video game out there. Just leave a comment here or use the hashtag #2012ShowiesNotPlayed on twitter. I will start it off with the most spammed game this community has ever seen on twitter, Clash of Clans. All spongebobbies every tweets about is invading and getting invaded but us on android can't join in the fun. Either he loves this game or hates us and does it to make us feel bad.

2012 Showies: Nominate Your Shooter of the Year

Image
One of the most contested categories for the 2012 Showies is, the Shooter of the Year. Who will it be? COD Vita, Blops 2, Medal of Honor: Warfighter, Borderlands 2, Killzone HD Trilogy? There are so many bad shooters to choose from, thank goodness there is one that stands above the rest. To nominate your shooter of the year comment or use the  #2012ShowiesShooter  on twitter. I nominate the only shooter released this year that dared to change the game, the shooter that went to the edge, the shooter that made no compromises. Yes, you are correct, that game is Spec Ops: The Line. It's goes without saying that Spec Ops completely redefined the shooter genre. The only way to properly describe it is to give the the 2012 Showies Shooter of the Year Award. Do the right thing and nominate it again.

2012 Showies: Nominate Your PSN Game of the Year

Image
It's time to nominate the best PSN Game of 2012. Just make sure that  it's a PSN only game. This can either be on the PSP, PSVita or PS3 as long as it released of the PSN first. (Games like Journey count as a PSN release even though it came out on disc later. Also this doesn't have to be exclusive either). You can nominate a game by leaving a comment on this post or by using the hashtag  #2012ShowiesPSNGOTY . I will start the nominations off with the absolute best PSN game that was released in 2012 and that would be Journey. Absolutely gorgeous  the best co-op on the PlayStation and one of the most unique experiences in gaming ever. If you haven't played Journey you are doing gaming wrong.

This isn't only the best way to play Need for Speed: Most Wanted, it's the only way you should play it. Don't be a sheep and play the dumbed down and overpriced version. Play the fun, cheap and amazing version.

It's time to get the nominations going for the 2012 Showies. Check back here everyday for a new post. There are two ways to nominate a game. You can either nominate a game by leaving a comment on this post for your PS3 exclusive of the year or use a hashtag on twitter  #2012ShowiesPS3Exclusive . This needs to be disc based games only. PSN exclusive will have it's own category. It's just that simple so get to nominating! I will start the nominations off with MLB12: The Show. By far the best in terms of quality, replayability, value, dev dedication, and fun. I mean just look at the video below and tell me that is not the best game released for the PS3 this year.
