Top 5 Games of May 2011 | VGW's Essential Gaming

VGW: You know, we were really looking forward to writing about this month. After our time at PAX East, we were sure that May was going to go down in history as one of, if not the greatest month in the history of the gaming industry. Then something happened: the AAA titles began to slide to June instead. It all started with Dungeon Siege III and Duke Nukem Forever, but soon enough Red Faction: Armageddon and F.3.A.R. joined them as official June 2011 releases.

Despite all of these release date relocations, May 2011 is far from bare. Check out our picks for what we here at VGW think you should be excited for over the next several weeks and let us know what else we should have our eyes open for!

I hope Brink is good and has a solid player base.

L.A Noire And Maybe Brink (Depending on reviews)

killyourfm4771d ago

Personally, DiRT 3 is way up on my list.

KDubyah4771d ago (Edited 4771d ago )

Already got LA Noire pre ordered, and paid off. And, I'ma be going to go get Brink as well.
Not a bad month for games, not bad at all. Two of my most anticipated games, this month. :)

L.A. Noire And Bully — Rockstar's Lost Gems That Deserve A Sequel As Much As GTA

Hanzala from eXputer: "I do appreciate GTA 6, Rockstar, but if I could trade it for a new L.A. Noire or a Bully game, I'd do so in a heartbeat."

Skuletor48d ago

How are they lost? You can get L.A. Noire on Steam, PS5, Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch and Bully is on the PS5 and Xbox Series too.

Psychonaut8548d ago

I want a new Manhunt game. But that will never happen.

Demetrius48d ago

Mfs are too sensitive nowadays and would cry instead of being concerned bout real world problems

Demetrius48d ago

Whenever gta 6 launch we won't be getting another rockstar title for another 10 years lol but on the positive side they bou to come back n show how open world supposed to be done 🔥

Skuletor47d ago

I won't expect any singleplayer DLC like IV's The Lost & Damned or The Ballad of Gay Tony after it launches either

One I never finished. I've been looking at the ps4 version off Amazon the last few months just never bit

Knightofelemia152d ago

It's worth playing LA Noire is one of my favorite Rockstar games. But I would also check out pawnshops or thrift stores if you want the game dirt cheap. Someone may have been dumb enough to dump the game.

andy85153d ago

Baffles me when people have these opinions about acclaimed games 😂

RhinoGamer88153d ago

100% agree... not perfect, but an engaging/refreshing experience.

sagapo153d ago

Agree, at time of release those facial expressions were amazing! They still hold strong even today imo.
The game on its own was good. Something fresh, but sidequests were a bit meh after a while.

Nacho_Z153d ago

I picked it up on sale recently, going to play it next summer. I'll get more out of it this time, first time around I treated the open world like it was GTA and goofed about, whereas now I'll play it with more respect. RDR2 has trained me well.

I also hadn't read Raymond Chandler at the time so presumably that'll add another layer of enjoyment too.

1nsomniac153d ago (Edited 153d ago )

Absolutely stunning game. So underrated. Played through it again last year and it still stands up so well. Like many of rockstars games it’s actually a far better experience on PC. I didn’t enjoy it as much on console. Completed it at least 3 times on pc.

The rumours of a sequel are awesome news despite the fact I think Rockstar are now the shell of the company they once were.

SyntheticForm153d ago

Team Bondi made a hell of a game.
