The words summer and blockbuster simply go together at this point. They’ve become as much a part of American pop culture as baseball, apple pie, and all the rest of the clichés about this wonderful land. But movies don’t have a monopoly on summer blockbusters anymore. The games industry has gotten in on the act, too, and the summer of 2012 saw some of the best offerings outside of the holiday rush since… pretty much ever. Click through the slideshow as we count down the 10 best games for XBox 360 and PS3 that released this summer.

The Top 10 Video Games of Summer 2012

7. Starhawk

Starhawk is nothing if not unique. It’s got an old-west themed sci-fi story (that’s smarter than Cowboys and Aliens) and seamlessly crosses genres by combining a third-person shooter with a real-time strategy. The game takes place in the distant future and drops you into a violent struggle over a resource called Rift Energy. Naturally, you’ll wind up in situations where you’re going to have shoot your way out, but you’ve also got to build bases and defense turrets, thinking hard about where everything should go to increase your chances of survival.
