The final pre-game candidate is an amazing first-person experience which reintroduces an iconic villain to the series and adds some amazing new features. Obviously, I’m talking about the impressive first-person puzzler Portal 2. You may, at this point, be wondering why there is an obvious Skyrim-esque void in this list. With a playtime of about six hours thus far, I felt it a bit unfair to include it. For the record, from what I’ve played of it, Skyrim was one of the best games I played last year. Now, let’s travel back in time to 2007 when Valve gave the world the wonderful gift that was Portal.
Electronic Entertainment Expos are exhausting. There are way to many people. Not enough places to take a break and sit down. There isn't enough time to take a break to sit down in any case on any day, so that last statement really shouldn't matter.

Thinking back to the history of sequels, it’s a rare treat when they are just as good as their predecessor. Even more rare are the sequels that far surpass what came before them. The Uncharted series started with a bang and brought cinematic action to the Playstation 3 in a time when it truly needed a hit. It was a fantastic game, so when a sequel was announced, it was hard to imagine it being much better. Thankfully, what came of that situation was one of the best games to have been released on the Playstation 3.
