Gamasutra - News - Gamasutra Best Of 2011: Top 5 PC Games
In 2011, the definition of a "PC game" became increasingly hard to quantify. Indies are flourishing in the space more than ever, and a number of popular PC games are making their way to consoles or even mobile devices. With so many options out there, it became harder to define the quintessential "PC" experience.
While PC gaming, by its loosest definition, includes any game that can be played on a PC, this year Gamasutra chose to only highlight games that are available exclusively on the platform. That means no iOS ports, no console ports, just a single PC release as of 2011.
5. Rift
4. Atom Zombie
3. The Binding of Isaac
2. Minecraft
1. The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings

I've played rift at a friends and although its fun, i don't think i will ever get into the p2p model with so many other f2p games out there. swotr is coming out and yes I want to try it, but am also hessitant due to p2p nature. I've never played minecraft either but heard the game is complex. I also don't know if I would ever be able to get into a game with graphics liek those (my opinion).
Of course if they included console port games, then Skyrim and Battlefield 3 would be on the list too. Do you guys who have played atom zombie and the binding of isaac think it deserves the top 5 spot?
