| The_Liquid_Laser said: The leading category before the runoff vote was actually "Other", but after doing the runoff vote, the top 2 games from the main poll stayed the same. The 2004 Game of the Year is Half-Life 2 and the runner up is World of Warcraft. This is the first year that both spots went to PC games. I also think it will likely be the last. This time period kind of marks the end of the era for big name PC exclusives. Almost all of the big PC game developers got roped into console gaming going forward. This year is PC gaming's way of going out with a bang. |
Depending on what year you put Minecraft in, 2009 when it was first made public, or 2011, when it was "officially" launched (though at that point it wasn't PC exclusive anymore), that could be the one that wins.
Not that PC won't have some really great exclusives going forward, but yeah, generally speaking, most PC devs and publishers went multiplatform, some with OG XBOX, like Bethesda and Bioware, some few years later with PS360, so really slim chances of PC exclusive winning again for quite some time (unless VG Chartz harbours secret cults of ARMA, Witcher 1, STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl, SPORE, Machinarium or something like that).
