My game of the year, so becuase they think like me they're great!!, if not, they would be trash....of course.

I predicted this would happen when RDR 2 launched with a 97 metacritic. I ranted then that i thought it was overrated and the press untrustworthy, and that it will be like 2013 again with TLOU and GTA V, and after the game awards this became pretty clear.

I love GTA V to death and I love Red dead too but there's no doubt TLOU and GOW are better overall games. Two big pros they have is the gameplay is better and they're not riddled with shark card/gold bar type microtransactions. 

GoW no because it’s only SP, but LoU yes it’s loaded with microtransactions, pay to win weapons, etc. Microtransactions literally changed the meta of LoU MP, it was a shame to see. At least they dialed the aggressive pay to win aspects back in Uncharted 4, as far as I know. Though even it has its own “shark card” currency and loads of microtransactions.

Congrats to GoW, I’ll finish it eventually, same with Red Dead.
