I agree i have still to play a game this year that is better than UC4 it's an amazing game .. but maybe FFXV and The Last Guardian will change that.

The vehicle parts were good. The story was simple but the characters were good. The gunplay was VERY good. There was just too many moments of platforming that required no skill. No way to fail. Moments that look exhilarating and dangerous but really, they aren't. I'm sure the online was good but I've never tried it. 

When I think of "Game of the Year", I think of a game that's a classic. I'll return to it time and again. I don't see myself doing that with Uncharted 4 or really any 2016 game. The exceptions are so flawed, I can't give them that title, either. For what it's worth, Uncharted 4 is really polished and detailed. Naughty Dog put a hell of a lot of effort into making it something special.

Have you already beaten Dishonored 2 and Deus Ex? Both games were amazing. Not sure how strict your gaming taste is. 

Mafia and Mirror's Edge were a bit dissapointing. 

I feel like dark souls or FF XV or world of FF deserve it more. An underdog candidate would be pokemon sun and moon

...wasn't RoTR last year? I don't think getting a port to a new console puts it in the running for this year...

O/T: Uncharted 4 was...massively underwhelming for me, though for what it's worth, this entire year has been pretty underwhelming. Most of the sequels I was looking forward to felt like a step back from their predecessors (Fire Emblem, Ace Attorney, Deus Ex, X-Com). I'd probably give it to Dark Souls 3, or perhaps even the fan made Metroid game, AM2R.

Hoping for Dishonored 2 to come through.

So far I'd probably give my GOTY to Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE, as I found it to be a very enjoyable JRPG. It had great, lovable characters, great presentation and music, and an excellent battle system that really feels like you're part of a concert, and no party member is left out in a fight. It def breathed new life into the genre, and was just a joy to play.

Uncharted 4's my GotY so far, but I don't love it nearly as much as you. It's actually my least favourite of the 4 main games. It's mainly my GotY because of the lack of new games I've played. The only other 2016 releases I've played are Mirror's Edge, Mafia III, which both disappointed, NHL 17 and DOOM. I'm only a few levels into DOOM right now, and it's been pretty good, so it could surpass Uncharted. FF XV's the only upcoming release that has a chance of beating it

I have to play DS3, TLG and FFXV to say, but it is my GOTY so far.

Yeah, I absolutely loved the chaining part. It was so cool to see everyone jump in for a hit, sometimes even triggering a duet attack also, which lead to an even longer string of attacks xD I think my highest was 18? Though, by the end battles would take such a long time to finish.

I disagree.

The game has poor pacing, a long-drawn out story that could've ended much sooner, and a (failed) attempt at trying to making the game more open world IMO. I think Uncharted 4 went a bit too far away from what made UC2 great, a fun, linear, action-packed, lighthearted summer-action-movie-like flick. They tried too hard to pull influences from TLOU (another game I have platnum for) in this, which IMO ruined it.

I have platinum trophies for UC2 and UC3, but I haven't even completed my first playthrough of UC4 yet (bought the game at launch).
