15 bucks downloadable games winning overall GOTYs just show how weak this year was.

It is an amazing game but I honestly have to agree a bit.

Last year we had like so many games up to that quality. This year really lacked and nearly every sequel really disappointed peers in one way or the other.


Next Year The Last of Us will probably dominate and GOW:A will get overshadowed by its awesomeness

It really is hard to say considering its a new IP. Like.. we really dont know if it'll reach the greatness of Uncharted. I sure hope so but it is hard to tell without actually playing the game. But yeah, its possible :P. Itll be a stellar year though so im not too sure regarding its domination. GTA, Bioshock etc

Ok, are you willing to take the bet?

Haha I think ill pass xD. I do think its possible.. but its hard because next year boats some very good games. Itll probably win at some places IF the game is everything ND promised and if they can deliver which we have no reason to doubt based on their past, but winning it all while possible will be difficult :P Id say the same regarding any game next year though! Unless Uncharted 4 was out because thats just a critical darling x'D

GTA 4 was tied with MGS4 and beaten by Fallout 3 in overall GOTY awards, could happen again xD

I saw the Amazon list earlier today, that surprised me a lot. You'd figure a retailer would go with the "sales = quality" formula and pick a blockbuster but they must have some employees who actually know games.

Amazon also had two Vita games in the top 20 (three if you count Zero Escape). Black Ops 2 was number 20, which I thought was amusing.

The VGA judges are members of the gaming press. The most notable judges from all over.The round table comes from the major sites as well, so the decision could've been made from that point on.

Where's the true GOTY SRW OG2nd?

Still don't agree but congrats to Journey :) Glad to see a smaller company get some success this year.

It's not about the size or price of the game. It's about how amazing the experience was. The music and atmosphere of Journey is completley revelutionary for a video game and completley sucked me into the experience. Not many other games can do that....

Deserved and expected... I'm saying the Journey is GOTY content after the first day I played it (one day after the release).

The Walking Dead Game deserves too... this game is really good.

This year just these two stood out... well maybe Borderlands 2... the other is not GOTY content for me.
