although it is a great game, there isnt enough new stuff to even consider it the best game of 2011.
skyrim to me sounds a lot like WOW or something, i guess if thats what your into its sick.
Battlefield 3 for me wins, most innovative game out there, deff. pushing the limits and moving forward unlike COD which is the same old bullshit (still fun...but bullshit). Battlefields sound, feel, map size, vehicles, lighting/graphics and everything is just awesome, h8ters just cant adapt from COD arcade style run and guns
