Best Xbox 360 games of 2012
The 87 best Xbox 360 games released in 2012, ranked from 11,810 critic and player ratings.
How this ranking is built
- Games are ranked on the aggregated critic score out of 100 imported from IGDB and Metacritic, never on Tier's own grades.
- A game only enters the ranking with at least 80 external ratings, so a single enthusiastic review never outranks a proven classic.
- Community grades from F to S are shown next to every game, and only stated as a fact above 5 Tier ratings.
- Release window covered: 2012.
- 37 games are listed on this page, carrying 11,810 ratings between them.
- Rankings are recomputed hourly; this one was last rebuilt on 29 September 2026.
