Subject: How did Walking dead win GOTY?

It makes no sense... you would think that GOTY would be a game that everyone's talking about. A game that tons of people on your friends list play. I just have a feeling that the votes were messed with...

I'm pretty sure all of you know if it was really us voting, cod and halo would have instantly been a nominee for GOTY.

What do you guys think of the winner? I honestly find the game boring

It won game of the year because it was the best game of the year.

No, I don't want to join your group/clan/team/community.

Yes. You are right. But the VGAs appeal to the most casual demographic. You would think something like Halo or COD would win GOTY from the VGAs. It's actually quite surprising that Walking Dead won.

yeah your right. The best game of the year should be a game that no one ever talks about or plays.

  • 12.08.2012 5:50 PM PDT

Aside from a couple of categories, the VGAs are voted on by judges made up of the gaming press.

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.

The game is boring. Good story but that is it.

I was hoping dishonored would win.

^ this, lots of people talk about and play blops 2, but that doesn't automatically make it a good game. all the talking could be complaining for all we know

  • 12.08.2012 5:55 PM PDT

Honestly, I hadn't even heard of the game until the awards.

Pure Insanity
The point of war is not to die for one's clan, but it's to make the other bastard die for his
Right before you die, there is always a chance to save yourself, sieze that chance and live to fight another day
The best way to kill someone is to fight them with the same weapons they use and make them know you are better than them, not because of superior weaponry, but because of superior skill.

I first heard about it from the Roosterteeth podcast.

But seriously? It got GOTY?

  • 12.08.2012 5:57 PM PDT

because like any industry, the gaming industry is rife with corruption.

  • 12.08.2012 5:59 PM PDT

It's a giant QTE with a bit of analog stick action. Who -blam!- knows why it won.

Yes. Because it 100% deserved it.

Go play it.

  • 12.08.2012 6:00 PM PDT

It deserved it. Everybody that has played it has realized just what a masterpiece that game is. For once, I have nothing to be upset about for the VGAs.

  • 12.08.2012 6:01 PM PDT

I didn't like the game much either, but whatever.

Sometimes posts here make me lose a little extra faith in humanity. On topic VGA's are the biggest joke ever. No one should watch them.

Bye.

I loved it and I haven't even seen the TV show. The game was beautiful, and was told through story, not action.

For those looking to vent, get proper advice, or give it to those in need.

Because it's a great game. Now I'd make the case Dishonored and XCOM are a step above The Walking Dead. That doesn't mean you'd be wrong to discount the game as GOTY.

I don't buy into this bull-blam!- trying to discredit The Walking Dead as a video game. Are you going to say all Adventure games aren't "real" video games? Tales of Monkey Island wasn't a game either?

What is a video game? It's an interactive medium the player engages in by controlling an onscreen avatar. You control Lee. You make him walk around, choose dialogue options, and generally engage in what is happening on screen. That's what a video game is.
