Salvador's Top 7: Favorite Games of 2011

So ladies and gentlemen, welcome to 2012's first Salvador's Top 7. This time around, I'm taking a look at my favorite games of 2011.

No, this isn't some Game Of The Year article. I am unfortunately only one guy and don't have the time to sit around and play games all day like I would like to. Thus, I've missed out on some great games this year. For example, I haven't finished Crysis 2, Deus Ex: Human Revolution is incomplete as well, I haven't played anything on the 3DS, and haven't even touched The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (GASP!).

Simply put, there were just too many good games and not enough free time for me to sit and play them all.

Note: I only include games I have personally played.
