Best Action / Adventure Game
Dishonored, Bethesda Softworks
In a year bursting with sequels, tie-ins and follow-ups, the game that snuck up and nabbed our favorite action game award was brand spanking new. Set in a fascinating world powered by whale oil and overrun by corruption, Dishonored stole our hearts with its compelling take on stealth gameplay -- and its awesome Blink ability.
Honorable mention: Assassin's Creed III, Darksiders 2
