Well, the cat is officially out of the bag. Portal 2 is Destructoid’s Game of the Year 2011! It wasn’t my personal vote for Game of the Year, but now that I think about it Portal 2 definitely deserves it and I’m glad to see it won. It was an amazing year for games, so here’s to what’s in store for us in 2012.
Other than our GOTY winner, the Steam Winter Sales started today, there was a good amount of talk about the PSVita and so many more amazing things happened on 12/19/11.
