The RPG, this is one of my favorite game genres.  To me it embodies taking on the role of a character and truly making them your own.  This year we selected the following games as our nominees for Best RPG of 2011:

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Dark Souls
Pokemon Black and White
Witcher 2
Deus Ex: Human Revolution

There is what I view to be a clear winner for this category, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim gets Best RPG of 2011 from The Gameslave this year.  The amount of customizing you can do with your character and the limitless abilities make it a game for the ages.
