What game won the most awards?

Halo 4, it won 3 awards


And yet didn't win the overall GOTY.  Gaming critics are becoming more like film critics every year...

Halo 4 very well deserved! I think the campain is not as good as the H3 one but multiplayer is amazing!!

Well done to Journey. Although I didnt like it, I know folks who do.

Im happy Halo 4 is getting the attention for best graphics pretty much everywhere. And Sound. Best sound ever in a game.

Also Hallalujah. Halo 4 beats out COD BLOPS 2 for Multiplayer. And it deserves to.

game with highest review score should get game of the year not other way round

If I didn't see it, I wouldn't have believed it! Good job, Journey!!

Hey, my personal game of the year is Dragon's Dogma but congrats to the winners. Great games, all around. I was especially surprised by how much I enjoyed The Walking Dead. I thought it was a buried treasure but I guess every felt like I felt.

While I agree with this somewhat, the reviews are by one single man and the awards are for the whole editorial staff. Therefore it is rather hard unless the score given is like cummulated by each staff member which would mean everyone has to play one game and share thoughts to review it. Bit difficult really and the closest thing to that which we got is called Metacritic or Gamerankings. By looking there, the winner actually was up there in the top so it does make some sense :)
