Innovation in gaming to TLOU? Awesomeness in gaming yes, but innovation? TLOU is about as innovative as the iPhone, which is to say they just took a lot of the things that already exist in gaming and put them together in a cool package. Is that innovation? Maybe, but not to me.
TLOU is my personal GOTY, so I'm not criticising the innovation award because I think the game is overrated. I think the general hype for TLOU is spot on, I just think innovation is overstating things a bit.
