What Was Your Favorite 2011 Video Game Release?

With the new year only beginning, it is time to look back and reflect on 2011 and think about all the amazing games released during that time...It was great, wasn't it?
Given that, what game released in 2011 did you like the most? Remakes can count, I guess, as well as game releases to different systems within this year.
Keep in mind I mostly added games that were relatively popular that were released this year. If the game you liked isn't on the list, just check off Other and post below =)
Personally, I liked The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. I'll probably do a review on it shortly, describing all the pros and cons, but in short, I found it to be rather revolutionary - it's one of the only games I've seen that effectively uses motion controls, i.e. you feel like you're swinging a sword. On top of that, the story was reasonably good, even though it does use a semi-typical "Legend of Zelda" formula.

Skyrim. Better than Portal 2, and I haven't dedicated enough time to ToR to consider it for a vote.

Minecraft
is a sandbox-building independent video game written in Java originally by Swedish creator Markus "Notch" Persson and now by his company, Mojang, formed from the proceeds of the game. It was released as an alpha on May 17, 2009, with a beta version on December 20, 2010. Official releases for iOS and Android have been released and the full version of the PC game was released on November 18, 2011 at MineCon 2011.
Sort of true...

Bastion. The gameplay, aesthetics and soundtrack were all superb. Plus, that ending made me cry so hard. Still does.

while I'm not surprised that skyrim got the overwhelming majority (truly awesome game) I'm a bit perplexed that nobody really liked Deus Ex at all.
Heck, after skyrim, that was my favorite game of this year (haven't played arkham city yet though :S still hasn't gotten to venezuela)

Halo: Anniversary Edition was by far the best game I bought this last year.

Not voting at all because I can't really choose between Skyrim, Deus Ex and Arkham City. I spent the most time in Skyrim, logging around 70 hours, but the gaem had a few flaws that kind of makes me hesitate to pick it.
Either way, all three were awesome.

If Skyrim came out in January 2011 I bet it wouldn't have so many votes.
Or more, because more people would have had the chance to play it?

Why why why isn't Assass Creed: Revelations on this list? It has sold more than Battlefield 3..
