[Question] The Gamingforce Game of the Year 2013: Heigh-ho it's off to Vote we go

Sadly, 2013 was a year of playing mostly 2012 or earlier releases. I did manage to try out a few, though, and this is what I thought of them:

Metal Gear Revengeance - 35
For starters, I have never played a Kojima game before, much less anything Metal Gear related. This was such a treat to play, and much love to Skills for getting it for me. The gameplay is slick and fun as all hell; the plot was thin, linear, and contrived, but self-consciously so; and finally it was quite challenging, but not infuriatingly or unreasonably so. (Except Monsoon. He can suck all the dicks.)
I'm docking 5 points because they really can't write women characters for shit(even compensating for the fact that they're all written as caricatures), and because of the needlessly slow UI and loading animation crap. For example, during VR Missions, you have to wait through all the dumb camera panning and zooming, HUD "boot-up" animations, and so forth, every time you restart the mission. (Because you screwed up somewhere. And you will screw up. Many many times.) This is frustratingly poor ui design. Surely a quick-restart key wouldn't be that computationally taxing, would it?

Saint's Row IV - 30
By the time of this write-up, I've only gotten through 75% of the story, but I think that's enough to get an idea of the game for a review.
A worthy successor in the series. Enjoyable gameplay, great voice-acting, and that dark humour I can't help but love.
However, the majority of the game just felt like a reskin of the Prototype games. They also reused the Steelport map from SR3. Hella lazy, dudes.

Fez - 35

Best puzzle platformer I've played in ages.
Though, god DAMN, that rising lava level.
My only lament is that it was too short.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
