May 1st, exactly 122 days into the year, is a perfect day to discuss what the GamerNode crew thinks has been great about gaming in 2012, along with the things that have been, well, not so great. Eddie Inzauto, Dan Crabtree, Jason Fanelli, and Greg Galiffa make their picks, and also discuss which games have been the very best of the first third of the year. GotFTotY, if you will. Listen and send in your choices via Facebook, Twitter, and GamerNode.com. Tom Hanks and Ken Levine say so.

Versus Node theme, "Dungeon" by Koji Kondo for Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda, 1987. Remixed by Brian Schulman and Charles Kantz, 2010. Outro, "Nascence" by Austin Wintory for thatgamecompany's Journey, 2012.
