Subject: Walking Dead took GOTY?

Honestly, I'm pretty surprised. Never played the game before, but it must have been a pretty cool game to get GOTY this year. Also, Borderlands got shooter of the year. Crazy, no?

I like how your sub box is full of science and political videos but your recommendations are full of anime girls kissing each other.

Just Zoid being Zoid ^_^

Not crazy at all

I ain't even mad.

  • 12.08.2012 11:27 AM PDT

Not crazy at all. They're both well deserved.

Take me into your heart! Accept me as your savior! Nail me to the -blam!- cross, and let me be reborn!

I was a little surprised. I've heard nothing but praise for its story and characters, I might need to pick it up sometime.

This, also that this year had bad games.

Next year will be different with better releases.

Well, considering COD usually takes the shooter of the year. Not saying Borderlands 2 is a bad game, I was just expecting a usual shooter like Halo or COD to take the award.

Walking Dead has received very positive reviews and appeals to many types of gamers. It also has a pretty great story. Can the same be said for the other nominees?

This is how it goes:
-This Year-
These games suck!
Last year was better!
Next year will hopefully be better!

-Next Year-
These games suck!
Last year was better!
Next year will hopefully be better!

What house has a rocket pod, has legs, and has a long narrow barrel that probably shoots something powerful?

Sounds like you're describing the lower half of my body, actually.

TWD didn't deserve it. VGAs is a joke.

Point and click comic book won GOTY. All other awards are invalid.

I kinda like it. It was definitely a much needed slap in the face to main-line developers that they need to change.

"You are the last of your kind: bred for combat, built for war. You're the master of any weapon, pilot of any vehicle, and fear no enemy"

I played it, and it was not GOTY nominee worthy.

It was a great game, with an 8/10 story. I think the VGA's were trying to prove they weren't complete sellouts, when they actually are.

If you haven't played, it's a game that supposedly tailors to how you play, when in actuality, no matter what you do, you get the same result. Every time. With a few exceptions.

You can pick when 1 out of 2 people die, which was pretty cool, but other than that singular exception, everyone dies when the game says, and all you do is determine your relationship with them, which jerks your heartstrings a little. It was an interactive novel.

Just look at the games that have won in the last 5 years. BioShock, Read Dead Redemption, Skyrim, Oblivion, GTA 4.

Point and click adventure games and QTEs? Don't be surprised if we start seeing more QTEs in our games.

  • 12.08.2012 11:58 AM PDT

The ending especially makes you truly feel the mood of the game not many games can do that these days, so it deserved it.

I'm not suggesting that they will copy it, but now understand that a lot of people no longer really care for linear FPS's.

Though, that argument really doesn't help explian how Borderlands 2 lost, I can't explain that.

Same. I was definitely shocked to see that Borderlands took the cake.

It doesn't explain how Dishonored lost either. People vote for game of the year correct?

Have you guys seen the TellTale Games forums? These guy seem to be convinced that it deserved it.

Maybe I have bad taste.

No. A panel of judges vote on the winner.
