Seriously though...it's quite ridiculous that Journey has been given so many GOTY awards. Even if it is fantastic, it's just too short to be a credicle GOTY canditate...Borderlands 2 would be my choice and should be lots of these sites' choices too given the amount of effort that went into it and the quality and duration of it.

Journey winning GOTY is kinda like Temple Run winning GOTY. It's a good game, but it shouldn't be rated on the same level as full 20+ hour retail games

I've now spend more time with Journey then with Dishonered and Forza Horizon combined. It's one of those games that keeps me coming back, especially since it's possible to do a full run in one sitting. Even on the 12th time my companion managed to show me something new.

Should Kingdoms of Amalur win since you can spend 200 hours on that game?
"That means easy difficulty, skip all cut scenes and dialogue, sprint everywhere that's sprintable, fast travel everywhere you can, don't do any combat you don't need to do… that all took around 200 hours, and that was a speed run."
I got so bored after 20 hours I haven't touched it since.

I haven't played it but it's well deserved. How The Walking Dead can get GOTY is beyond me. They are fun little episodes but nothing amazing.

Game lasts like 1,5-2 hours. Fairly certain VGC doesnt type "2 hours" until it actually hits 2:00:00, so you've beaten it in somewhere around 1:00:00 ->1:59:99 xD


Glad you rike it
