Love how OP skips 2007 so Halo 3 doesn't get mentioned...

1 week to go for GTAV reviews and very possible GOTY candidate! Bumping this for any new users that might've missed it.

Interesting!

GTAIV had 98 meta but got fewer overall GOTY than Fallout 3 that had 93.
Instead it tied with MGS4 that had 94.

GTAV will be getting 97-98 meta. With TLOU at 95
and BI at 94.

Cant wait to see how this one turns out!

GTAV and TLOU slugging it out! TLOU is in the lead but it can go either way! Fun Fact: Both Rockstar and ND has had one game win GOTY in this generation (ND with UC2 2009, Rockstar with RDR 2010). Who will be the developer to finish with the most GOTY's under their belt?

 * The Winners of this year *


The Last of Us - 23

The Critics' Picks - 21

The Readers' Picks - 2


Grand Theft Auto V - 19

The Critics' Picks - 15

The Readers' Picks - 4


Bioshock Infinite - 3

Battlefield 4 - 2

Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon - 1

Tomb Raider - 1

Also this years "best graphics" is a bit of a mixed bag considering next gen is upon us and many of the outlets have actually decided to not even award it out! This topic is mostly about the 7th generation and this is likely to be the last year where we have a mostly 7th gen GOTY list

Do you know when thye will announce who won? Or  is it just whenever they finish getting in all the votes?

Whenever they finish. Usually the votes stop around March so we still got a way to go :P But by February, you should be able to see the winner (unless its as close as now.. still).

@Pezus
Why even bother XD But yeah Halo 3 wasnt in Top 5 back in 07

All TLOU wins thus far


25 wins for TLOU =>
