As far as I’m concerned, this is the clear winner and my first 10/10 game this decade.
Not saying they are bad games but 6 sequels, one of them a remake, and not a single new game. That pretty much summarizes the state of the current gaming industry.
We’ve got some great contenders this year!
- Alan Wake 2
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Resident Evil 4
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
Who are you voting for (or would vote for) and why?
Baldur’s Gate 3, because it’s one of the best games I’ve ever played, but also I haven’t played more than a few minutes of the other games on the list. Alan Wake 2 is only a storefront that doesn’t support my operating system; Spider-Man 2 is stuck on a console that I don’t intend to buy so I won’t play it for at least two years (and even then it seems way too similar to the last games); Resident Evil 4 is surely better than the last time I played it, but I’m not in a rush to play a revised version of that game; Super Mario Bros. Wonder I can say shocks me that people are rating it this highly; and even if I wasn’t pissed off at Nintendo these days, Tears of the Kingdom still didn’t build on Breath of the Wild the way I wanted it to.
Absolutely stacked year, I don’t think I could choose!
Alan Wake 2, but TotK was so close. Spiderman 2 was disappointing.
Oh the marketing show
Zelda vs BG3 IMO
My heart says BG3, but my head also says BG3, because if you look at Google trends, BG3 has held the conversation longer and with higher peaks. Still, the winner is realistically only one of these two games.
I think realistically, TotK is going to win the popularity aspect by a longshot. Even though BG3 is, IMO an objectively more impressive feat, and most of the novelty in TotK was already in BotW.
The awards are voted on by journalists, not fans, so the games favored to win are the ones that woo the most outlets, not the ones that sell the most copies. They’re correlated, but if a staff of game reviewers is holding the game that sold a third as many copies in higher esteem, it can still win in this show.
I’m just basing it off the fact that anyone can click that link and vote on which one they want to win GOTY.
It’s a separate tally.
Mario Wonder is a fantastic game, but it has absolutely no business being on this list.
@pixelscript @HowSwayy what utter bollocks, Mario Wonder is by far the best of the bunch. Outstanding game and the best 2D entry since 1991.
Of the 3 I’ve played, it’s TotK
Most of the nominees were just not deserving (through an the categories) ngl
I bet it will be a close call between spiderman and zelda
Baldur’s Gate 3 should win, but it won’t. It’ll be Zelda or Spider-Man.
Forgot about all these games
