The Editors at IGN write: "Video game storytelling reached new heights in 2013. Bombastic, AAA experiences like The Last of Us featured characters that felt true to life. Indie hit Gone Home made us feel deeply connected to a character that we never actually met.

It's that time of the year when all the writers at Canadian Online Gamers reflect on the past year and come up with their Games of the Year. "For the past few years, the Canadian Online Gamers crew have come together in collaboration to share with you our best and worst games of the year. Some of our picks have come from way out in left field while others have come as no surprise. This year Grand Theft Auto 5 and Bioshock Infinite are sure to get plenty of votes. Remarkably enough they didnt clean up as much as you would expect.

For Part One, we take a look at the games that received top honors this year from each of our writers. Part Two will be published later this week and we will look at which games just didnt make the cut."

Josh from Bag of Games writes "This years wealth of phenomenal titles undeniably left gamers with an ever-increasing back log of great experiences to consume well after 2014s inevitable arrival, with highly anticipated releases like The Last of Us, Grand Theft Auto V, Bioshock Infinite, Injustice: Gods Among Us, and Tomb Raider pushing our current-gen consoles to the absolute limit before their next-gen counterparts predictably steal our undivided attention. But amongst the hidden gems, undiscovered masterpieces, and underappreciated sleeper hits populating our chosen systems lies the infamous bargain bin scrapers, games so unbelievably horrendous and downright disappointing that they completely shatter the expectations of gamers and the respectability of interactive entertainment as a whole. From ugly cash-grabbing movie tie-ins to poorly-crafted original experiences, the Bag of Games team has painfully journeyed through this years most atrocious titles; emerging bruised, batter...
