Note .the awards that I have no opinion on i'll just skip such as this one.
Game of the Year
•Assassin’s Creed: IV Black Flag
•Bioshock Infinite
•Grand Theft Auto V
•The Last of Us
•The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds
Outstanding Achievement in Game Direction
•Brothers – A Tale of Two Sons
•Grand Theft Auto V
•Papers, Please
•Tearaway
•The Last of Us
Outstanding achievement in game direction (Director) why would they nominate a game rather than the director? anyways I have no opinion on this.
Outstanding Innovation in Gaming
•Grand Theft Auto V
•Papers, Please
•Tearaway
•The Last of Us
•The Stanley Parable
okay this one is just bullshit, all of these games except the winner were innovative, even Last Of Us fans realize that the game is not innovative in anyway, why did it win in Innovation? , it didn't try anything new! , i would go for Papers, Please, what other game have you play as a border passport toll?, none , what other game have you be a survivor in a post apocalyptic setting ? every game with a post apocalyptic setting
Outstanding Achievement in Original Music Composition
•Beyond: Two Souls
•BioShock Infinite
•Puppeteer
•rain
•Rayman Legends
Here is another one that bugged me, Bioshock's soundtrack was a bunch of cover songs and remixes from older songs , this is like giving Need for Speed "Original" Music "composition", see where the error is?, Bioshock only had the credit music and some ambient music in the background, did you hear the crazy good Rayman Legends soundtrack? or celtic classical music of puppeteer? or the moody and dark music of Rain? (I haven't played Beyond as of writing this) , all of these are ORIGINAL Music COMPOSITION , and they say why do people not take the gaming industry seriously, if they can't read what the award means, Bioshock's music was only cover songs from 80s and 50's like Girls just wanna have fun, and Everybody wants to rule the world, and Erine Goodbye (my favorite song in the game) , even though I enjoyed those songs, Its NOT original composition , they didn't write them
Outstanding Achievement in Sound Design
•Battlefield 4
•BioShock Infinite
•God of War: Ascension
•Grand Theft Auto 5
•The Last of Us
Outstanding Achievement in Story
•Beyond: Two Souls
•BioShock Infinite
•The Last of Us
•The Novelist
•Tomb Raider
didn't know Novelist had a story, got to play it
Outstanding Character Performance
•Grand Theft Auto 5 — Trevor
•Ryse — Marius Titus
•The Last of Us — Ellie
•The Last of Us — Joel
•The Stanley Parable — Narrator
Having only watch the cutscenes I have no idea why Ryse was even nominated, the characters were bland like a hollywood movie.
Outstanding Achievement in Art Direction
•BioShock Infinite
•Puppeteer
•Rayman Legends
•Tearaway
•The Last of Us
This is another Award I have an issue with, did it really win against Puppeteer, Tearaway, Infinite and Rayman Legends? all of these had a unique art direction . What did Last Of Us have? it was realistic in it's "art" and urban, its like saying ARMA looks more artsy than Borderlands , see where am I going? ARMA is hyper realistic, Borderlands is comic like and colorful, did Last Of Us have more " Art " than Puppeteer? , the game that is actually all about art ? . how can you take this seriously without raising an eyebrow? , its like having Madden vs Journey and Madden wins for most daring game concept, you got to be joking.
Outstanding Achievement in Visual Engineering
•Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag
•Battlefield 4
•Grand Theft Auto 5
•Ryse
•The Last of Us
Outstanding Achievement in Gameplay Engineering
•Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag
•Forza Motorsport 5
•Grand Theft Auto 5
•Super Mario 3D World
•The Last of Us
Again why is AC IV even mentioned? the game was rushed and was loaded with terrible AI and glitches and ITS STILL NOT FIXED not to mention the terrible looting system or the useless weapons you get or the goodawful battle system, this isn't Engineering, this is just cut and paste.
Outstanding Achievement in Animation
•Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag
•Beyond: Two Souls
•Puppeteer
•Rayman Legends
The Last of Us
Adventure Game of the Year
•Assassin’s Creed: IV Black Flag
•Tearaway
•The Last of Us
•The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds
•Tomb Raider
Action Game of the Year
•Battlefield 4
•Bioshock Infinite
•Dead Rising 3
•DmC: Devil May Cry
•Resogun
Bioshock's winning in Action? the game's action was it's least finest aspect, how did it win? you just go around shooting hordes and hordes of people until the next horde comes in and then there is a cutscene, and it dragged on way too much, it felt like Quake Arena but with fancy cutscenes and a companion AI

this is a joke, why is there no japanese fighting games here? there are a lot of them released? , for example DOA 5 : Ultimate is one of the best fighting games in recent years, why isn't it on here?
Strategy/Simulation Game of the Year
•Europa Universalis 4
•Fire Emblem: Awakening
•Sid Meier’s Civilization 5: Brave New World

Role-Playing/Massively Multiplayer Game of the Year

okay this one is crap, first off, Diablo 3 is compelete shit, and doesn't deserve to be even nominated, and second why did they make MMO and RPGs one award? why not have these and then "MMO" for say... actual MMOs ? , did they run out of awards? , why is Tales Of Xillia so goddamn underrated?
and thats that, what do you guys think?
