Well, it seems it is (already?!) that time of year again. What do you believe are the big six to be featured in Geoff Keleigh’s The Game Awards?

Here are the highest rated releases this year according to: OpenCritic and MetaCritic.

Though last year’s show definitely left a bit of a blemish on my perception of the overall show, I think it’s still fun to speculate on what games will get that coveted “TGA Nominee” accolade. That said, here’s what I’m leaning toward:

GTA VI (safe)
TLoZ: Ocarina of Time (safe)
Resdent Evil Requiem (safe)
Mina the Hollower (safe)
*throws dart at wall for the remaining two slots…*
Forza Horizon 6
Pokémon Pokopia

Those last two slots can be filled in by like twenty other games lol. There are a lot of games that scored in the 87-89 region this year. Though Forza and Pokopia are the highest rated among them, so that’s my reasoning. Phantom Blade Zero may sneak it’s way in though, if early impressions reflect what the reviews will end up being.

I feel like GTA VI will sweep the show, just like Expedition 33 last year.

That said, I want Resident Evil Requiem and PRAGMATA to win a couple of awards.

The nominees will be made public mid November. GTA6 will launch November 19. Will the jurors have enough time with the game to nominate it (no idea when review copies go out)? Or simply do so on brand value alone?

Further more I think:

Resident Evil9
Pragmata
Star Wars Galactic Racer
Mina the Hollower
Big Walk
Ocarina of Time

GTA VI.
RES Requien.
007: First Light.
Pokopia. 
Zelda: OoT.

Not sure abut the 6th game. Sadly Mina the Hollower is unlikely, but would be a good surprise in my book.
