Im watching the golden globe awards right now and the game of the year wards and movie awards have one thing in common. And that is that one movie or game pretty much wins every single major award. When I was going through the vgchartz and gamespot goty awards the only game i saw was red dead redemption. I think rdr won 75% of gamespot's awards. Sure it was good but did it do all of those things better then the other games? Sure RDR should have won overall goty, but heavy rain should have won best story (i thought the game portrayed a better story), and maybe god of war 3 for best ps3 game. But RDR takes all 3 of those awards. Why do critics that one game game or movie is better than all of the other games/movies in every way? |
Well for movies it can be due to the production values.... I'd argue that LOTR probably had the best costumes, best FX, best many things due to the budget they had to do it and the people being actual fans so doing the job doubly well... But yes that is a special case.
In games, well you're correct, although the budget is still a factor, it is very less so, and there is no reasons why one game should have all the honors.
Sadly the way people do this is by increasing the categories so that the game of the year contender don't even compete with each other.
