The Last of Us Winning Game of the Year is Disappointing (To Me Atleast)

Winning GOTY where? Certainly didn't win here, didn't even with the PS3 GOTY. It's won on some game sites, but plenty of other games have won GOTY's. I wouldn't even say it's dominated GOTY. Seems that GTAV, LBTW and SM3DW are getting plenty of love here.

So what you are saying is that TLOU winning even one GOTY is disappointing?

And TLOU isn't a shooter. You can make it through entire levels doing only stealth or melee take downs (with the occasional bomb or molotov thrown in for good measure), or sneak past all the enemy without having to kill one. Shooting is an element of TLOU but stealth is far more important. The harder the difficulty setting the more you need to stealth, because ammo is very hard to come by on high difficulty. So to say just "another shooter" suggests you don't really know the game at all.

The Last of Us has completely dominated Game of the Year overall. It has won over 200 GOTY awards from sites around the world as highlighted in this thread. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=175911&page=1# That is well over what any other game this year has won.
