I have to say it's a bit sad to not see WWHD in the art one. Sure, it's a remake but damn does it look pretty! Cheebee's sig shows it the best.

Best art design should be Ni No Kuni, according to my completely unbiased opinion, *cough* studio Ghibli!

wait they gave best tech to TLoU? What is the point of a separate best tech award if you are going to give it to a game for it's amazing art design?

Best graphics technical? and a 7th gen game won? why have a misleading award category.
also God of War should be mentioned, as should Crysis 3, and Metro.
7th gen it was probably God of War > The Last of Us > Crysis 3 > Metro
8th Killzone obviously

on pc crysis and metro

Agree, the game that has come closest to looking like an anime so far.

LOl Metro and crysis 3 on PC destroys TLOU and i Love TLOU it deserved GOTY but graphics? IGN forgetting PC exists.

I personally think Mario 3D World had the best art direction. Not trying to stir any hate, but just my personal opinion :P

Agreed... Sadly it wasn't even considered.

In terms of graphics technology... yeah lets just lazily give that to TLOU...

Not sure if hardcore gamers were happy or conflicted by this. All those wasted Ryse Vs Killzone threads.
