2011 was an incredible year for gaming. Skyrim, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, The Witcher 2, Skyward Sword and so many other great games. Bioshock creator Ken Levine said that he believes 2011 was the best year for gaming in a long time. Below is a quote of what he told Eurogamer.

“It's a year to be proud of, I always make time for games.

That’s important. If you’re not playing games you’re compromising your ability as a game developer to make good games.

It’s been an interesting year. It’s the best year since – and I’m not just saying this because of my game – 2007. A lot of great games, like Portal, came out that year. It’s the best year in a very long time.

There have been a ton of games I’ve been playing. I play more games right now mostly because there’s just so much good stuff to play.

2011 is a year to be proud of our industry,” he continued. ”It’s a year to be proud of the Uncharted guys. It’s a year to be proud of Epic. It’s a year to be proud of the Call of Duty guys. It’s a year to be proud of everybody because people are delivering this year in a way the industry hasn’t delivered in a very long time.”
