This is a feature top 10 list from gaming website PlanetXbox360.com, which looks at the top 10 video game sleeper hits of 2011; these are games that are not your major retail sellers but will still be so worth playing once released later this year.

There is no doubt that 2011 will be a big year for Xbox 360 when it comes to hit games, with some of them – Crysis 2, Bulletstorm – already making the rounds, and others – Mortal Kombat, Shift 2: Unleashed – coming in a matter of weeks. But what about the games that are expected to be “sleeper” hits, the ones that the gaming community recognizes more than the masses? Well, there will be plenty of those, and here now are ten games that we believe will set the tone for gaming greatness, even if they don’t sell in the multi-millions. These should definitely be “sleeper” hits for the next-gen consoles set to release in 2011, later this year we’ll take a look at the major players.
