Nice, watched the whole stream. Felicia Day is pretty darn hot! And the guy who plays Thor is super-tall.

Why did they hype up that Thor game at the VGAs? It looked like utter crap.

Agreed - I am not sure what they are thinking with that one. Video games based on movies generally are not well-done and, even from the looks of this one in the trailer, this one doesn't seem to be any different.

A whole lot of whiners who cannot handle the fact that some people like games other than the ones they worship. Reviews and awards are ultimately always going to boil down to opinions. Grow up and get over it.

I very much agree with what you're saying. This years been great for gaming and there are just so many games this year i can call GOTY worthy. It's been a great year for games and that all that matters! Good comment.

It was fine really. A lot of people surprised about Overwatch won GOTY which doesn't suprise to me really. I knew it was coming. Fan art, cosplay and fan base are huge. Even Overwatch is the most people played time.

I don't disagree with you but I don't know if game of the year should be given to a game which is entire conceptual identity is based on another game that's almost 10 years old...and still current mind you.

Sorry but not sure it's enough to say it was the best game of the year which I believe should hold weight in regards to being conceptually creative.

In no way shape or form can we say OverWatch is conceptually creative if it's essentially copying another game.

To create is to make something and I do not believe that blizzard created the concept of that game clearly that was already done with Team Fortress 2

They simply made a version of another idea that's a very hard for me to say is worth game of the year.

If anybody was to consider if there were possibly paid off this might be one of the most genuine times to think that because I find it very very hard to believe that the majority of the industry believes this was the best game this year.

A good game yes, to say game of the year is to say it's doing something that is absolutely above and beyond in regards to creativity and it's hard to say creativity for me from a team that created a game from a concept that was not their own...

It is kind of pathetic. As gamers, we don't need marketing like this, in what's supposed to be an award show.
In a entertainment medium that generates revenues on par with movies and music, I don't understand why video game entertainment isnt recognized in other award shows.
There are a couple a year, that slip my mind. However, these are shows that honor Music, Movies, and Television. Maybe they have added videogame honors as of late and i'm behind the eight ball on this one.
I feel as though the "VGA'S" are treated as a niche event. Therefore we get, what we get. I wonder what would be different if they were broadcast through MTV, or even a network like FOX or NBC?

Well for one thing they would get commercials which would pay for the event to happen, commercials which cost a lot more since more people are watching. Think of how much ad-time at the Superbowl costs, and that's because of the audience each commercial gets. The only way that Geoff Keighley can produce the awards is with corporate sponsorship, and with not as many people watching The Game Awards, the ads sell for less money, which means there have to be more of them to pay for the show. Since the commercials are usually taking the form of new game reveals and promotions however, that's a lot more palatable to the video game audience than it would be to a network audience watching ads for dish soap and car insurance, so at least we can be thankful for that.

Unfortunately gaming is still a very expensive medium.

I completely agree with you we're just not in the era of gaming where we can have an award show that's like that one day but right now we're just not 100% there yet.

In my personal opinion we need an award show that has the Integrity to not accept any paid marketing to suggest that their decisions were swayed in any way shape or form by special interest.

If the companies want to Market that's why we have commercials for but that should not be time taken away from the award show itself.

I completely agree with you though I could not say the vgas or anything near what those other award shows are

There have been some decent vgas in the past. The last couple of years seem to have gone backwards. I didn't even think about "paid influence!" ....I'm gonna look at the vga's now and online sites like "ign" through a different lens from now on. I suppose the most integral "best of the year" awards will be the gamer votes, not the media publications

How if someone thought overwatch was more deserving=unfair? Grow up not everyone like the same games as you. GA opinion overwatch > uncharted 4 live with it.

Thats all your opinion at the end of the day overwatch won live with it.

Overwatch is great... But it's no Uncharted. The story, character interactions, visuals and attention to detail are simply greater in Uncharted. My guess is that you don't own Uncharted 4.

The majority people are of the opinion that Uncharted 4 > Overwatch.
Live with it.

Except OverWatch is concept is basically Team Fortress 2 I'm sorry but any spinning or dissecting of that comment in regards to the nuances is irrelevant....

At the end of the day you have a class-based game with some of the exact same classes like engineer that are making sentrys with the objectives that are essentially the same from Team Fortress 2.

That alone is why I could not put this game as the best game of this year because the idea behind this game is already the concept of another game regardless of the nuances that they have the base of it is Team Fortress 2.

So many other more creative and deserving games in regards to technical achievements and New Concepts deserve that award.

This seriously sounds like blizzard paid them to win this award and it wouldn't Shock Me even slightly.

I just don't see many outlets giving this game game of the year in a year where a final fantasy and Uncharted released

Lol no.

For a team Fortress clone? Ummmm

I understand its popularity but winning an award like this is extremely suspicious.

Its popularity does not make it creative or different in any way shape or form.

If you're ready to throw this popularity contest on the table to win Awards we might as well start giving Call of Duty and FIFA the award every single year...

@ ED

FF15 wasn't nominated because of its release date so I won't talk about it but by your logic why should Uncharted 4 have won when its the 5th game in the franchise and follows the same concept and basic premise of its 4 predecessors? What's so creative about Uncharted 4?

"I understand its popularity but winning an award like this is extremely suspicious. "

Why? Overwatch has a 91 metacritic so that meant that critics enjoyed it and thought it was a great game. What the hell is so suspicious about critics awarding it GOTY?
