PlayStation Fans Name Their Favorite Games Of 2012

The virtual polls have officially closed and the gamer-selected PlayStation Blog Game of the Year titles have been announced. It was a long, hard-fought battle of clicking on selections and then clicking on the “vote” button, but now we can finally reveal which games you, the gamers, have chosen to the best of the best on Sony’s family of consoles.

Keep in mind that these selections were made by the fans, who were given about a week to peruse a list of about 15 games per category, select their favorite and then cast their vote. If you have any gripes about which titles were selected, you only have your fellow nerds to hold accountable.
