The 2014 Game of the Year is Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze and the runner up is Alien: Isolation.  Things really changed after the runoff vote with the top 2 games both being from write-in nominees.



curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
My Bet With curl-6

By the way I feel like run-offs should last longer - I keep almost missing the votes!

Yeah, they are way too short, I missed this one completely (not that it would matter, I was abstaining anyway, since I didn't play Bayonetta out of the contenders in run-off, and that seemed like it could actually deserve the title).

I'm stunned DKTF won GotY...... it wasn't even that good of a game.

I 112%’d Tropical Freeze. That game was ridiculously good. So much satisfaction.

Ya I missed this one also. Voted Mario Kart 8 in the first round but missed the run off vote.

Yep, another game I played co-op with my wife and we both gave up in frustration. Not a good co-op game.

I see MK8 took 2nd place after voting closed. I still prefer Alien Isolation more, however my wife and youngest love MK8, more universal appeal.

Honestly, co-op is pretty bad indeed. The game's clearly made to be played by 1 player, and at that it shines.
