Many great games (and some not so great) have appeared across all the systems this year, some launched with public frenzy or huge media campaigns (I'm not sure if anyone is unaware of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3's release).
 
However some games don't have their own hype machine for every Uncharted there's an El Shaddai.

Here are 11 games you may have missed this year and should look out for if you need something inbetween those killer Skyrim or MW sessions, they might not be AAA but they are quality titles.
 

El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron (PS3/360)

El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is a fantasy action game that will draw players into a rich storyline inspired by events in the Old Testament's apocryphal Book of Enoch.

More then just a action game El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is a gorgeously crafted game with platforming elements.

I almost cant put into words how great this game looks, with some sections in water colour or cel shading, this is one beautiful game.

Lucky the beauty is more then just skin deep with a very unique game where you must use holy weapons you cleanse from your enemies , El Shaddai offers something different to the many games out there and is worth one heck of a long look.

Philippa Warr: The Unbearable Heaviness Of My Skyrim Inventory

The developers of Skyrim, Fallout 3 et al probably forgot to include people like me in the beta testing stage. People who decide that their character is just the sort of jerk who would take a coffee cup (or related trophy) from each of her kills.

The link to this didn't make any sense, as it uses a picture of star wars the old republic, but there is no mention of that game in the list, so why use its picture.

This was really hard to read. Someone needs to proofread it for grammar.
