PlayStation Blogcast 056: My Big Fat Game of the Year Show

You have spoken! The winners of the first-annual PlayStation.Blog Game of the Year Awards have been revealed at last! Now it’s time to listen to a bunch of people you don’t know discuss great PlayStation games you may or may not have played. Behold! The final, thrilling episode of PlayStation Blogcast for 2012 is about to begin.

It’s high time we brought in the illustrious Dan Hsu, Editor-in-Chief (“EIC” if you’re super cool) of GamesBeat and former Editor-in-Chief of EGM, to class up the joint for a few precious hours. Along with straight-shooting PR man Aram Jabbari and a loveable scamp we’ve dubbed Nick Suttner, we plunge into the year’s best moments in gaming, whether it’s the stark vistas of Journey, the monochromatic mysteries of The Unfinished Swan, or the eye-popping menus of Persona 4 Golden. We touch on a ton of titles across PS3, PS Vita and PS Mobile, so this is a great chance to get inspiration for those last few stocking stuffers.

With the holiday PlayStation Store seeing a light holiday publishing schedule next week, today’s show focus squarely on our favorite games of the year — be sure to leave yours in the comments, too.

Thanks again for your support of PlayStation Blogcast. Happy holidays and see you in early January!
