For me, so far, it has to be Dawn of War II: Retribution.
The thing is that I bought The Witcher 2 from GoG.com about a week ago or so, and I have yet to install it since I still haven't finished the original which I also just recently bought from GoG (mainly due to the fuss surrounding The Witcher 2, admittedly, otherwise I never really wanted to play the original at all, but I gave it a go). After I finish the first I'll get to see what's that sequel all about, but for now yeah I'd say it's Retribution, and I do believe that Crysis 2 should get an honorable mention. Additionally, I think that despite its numerous issues and drawbacks Dragon Age 2 shouldn't be forgotten too fast either, the voice acting alone should grant it a noticeable seat somewhere within decency at worst.
When it comes to consoles (I.E console-exclusive, at least for now, perhaps it will change later this year and I do hope that it will) it has to be Mortal Kombat (2011). I've played it just last week-end at my cousin's place (360 version) and I absolutely loved it. It reminded me a lot of Mortal Kombat II which at that point I still believed was the best of the entire saga, but now that I've played that latest MK I have to say that it really is the best of them all, in my opinion, and if I had a 360 it would be an instant buy. I sincerily hope that it will be ported to the PC, not to mention that I bought the MadCatz fightpad for Street Fighter IV last year and I can't imagine the fun I'd have playing that new MK on that controller, thumbs up to NetherRealm Studios (Midway Games' legacy, also thanks Mr. Boon) for making a superb MK game, it took that many years to come back to its roots but finally we're there now.
