Thanks @Aldro.

Far Cry 3: 12
Halo 4: 9
Journey: 8
Max Payne 3: 3
Hitman: Absolution: 2
Assassin's Creed: 1

 

So far Far Cry 3 is the overall 2012 Best Graphics... the second place is between Halo 4 and Journey.

First of all his list is missing huge publications like GameInformer which gave Halo 4 best graphics.

The author of that blog is taking his sweet time updating the list.

He won't add Gameinformer to Halo 4 because I just checked it...

Dude it says " Shooter of the year best graphics ". He will only add stuff that actually takes games from all genres into consideration AND all platforms.

Surely you dont expect him to add stuff like "Best graphics on indie games" XD. He has however added the Shooter of the Year since that actually is on the site. But the graphics has to take all games into consideration.

 

For instance, here is Best Graphics for Action/adventure only where Journey wins at GameInformer. That isnt added either.

Why hasnt he added GameTrailers? strangely enough he only seems to be adding awards that you submit to him as well as ignoring the racing genre.

Check the past years, he doesnt exactly change the genres, theyre the same throughout i think. Like there is no music genre either etc. Suggested it to him like one or two years ago and didnt get no reply.

I think he might wait for GameTrailers to give overall GOTY before doing so. So he doesnt have to visit the sites several times. Just my hypothesis, I have no clue.

So yeah lets be patient.

 

EDIT: He just knocked off GameReactor Denmark giving Best Tech to Far Cry 3 as it, like mentioned, was Tech and not Visual/Graphics or whatever :P.

Its still cherry picking.


Plus I have the magazine right in front of me and they gave Halo 4 the overll best graphics of the year award.  Not just best shooter graphics
