    I know, I just got confused seeing Agas' post with all the game releases for the year. Just wanted to confirm whether or not the noms started!

    Haha, I don't want to make anyone confuse. Forgive my marketing kind of writing. :)
    Right now is the "nomination brainstorm" period so I'm just listing all GOTW games that probably can be in consideration. Hopefully it helps.

    Modern Combat 4 so far. I don't have time to look into the other games yet. So occupied with Mc4. Which I'll vote for.

    I had to add Mutant Mudds to my list... This game is freakin amazing... I'm also going back and replaying some games to see how they hold up after completing them... I'm thinking Gene Effect and Lost Winds might come down off the list. I do love them both, but as far as holding up through a second (or third) playthrough isn't something they're really doing well for me... All the other games on my list (minus Mutant Mudds, Autumn Dynasty and Eufloria... Though I've put in countless hours to Eufloria, and have a feeling I'll be doing the same with AD's skirmish and MP modes) - I've played through at least twice, and could easily play through and complete them a couple more times...

    I'm just still blown away by how many fantastic titles hit the AppStore this year... Even with the influx of the whole freemium/IAP driven models, there's still been quite a few amazing games. Definitely looking forward to the coming years. =oD


    ***to anyone wondering... I'm pretty sure Eufloria is going to snag my #1 spot...

    Wow, I just realized Little Acorns came out this year :eek: Man, that seems like forever ago. I really need to go through every single receipt I have to make up this list and damn it's going to be hard narrowing them down...

    Ha.. Yeah, Little Acorns almost made my list... It was in my top 20, but I wound up cutting it... =oP

    Still though, fantastic game, even though World 4 isn't coming, it's a great platformer definitely worth a purchase and the time you'd sink into it. =oD
