Yes? Awesome! You're entered to win a $100 Amazon gift card!
No? Go do it! Then you'll be entered to win a $100 Amazon gift card!
We've held these awards at a point where we expect you've played all the games on the list you really care about. Still, out of courtesy to your fellow N4Gers please keep the discussion below spoiler-free.
Here's a bit of an FAQ:
1. How did you end up with these nominees?
User nominations! http://n4g.com/user/blogpos...
N4G is a user driven site, so having the staff deliver a list to you for you to vote on seemed contrary to the way N4G works. We want the official N4G GOTY poll and results to be a reflection of the current N4G community, so all nominations come from you.
________________
2. Will we see ALL of the nominations?
If it was nominated only once, probably not. We set the bar at being nominated by at least two users.
________________
3. Where and when do we vote?
Now and here: http://goty.n4g.com/

4. What if I want to suggest a category for next year?
Go ahead! Use the comments, PM, sky writer - just let us know and we'll consider it!

Thanks to everyone that submitted nominations and happy voting!
PlayStation tweets: "Helldivers fans -- we’ve heard your feedback on the Helldivers 2 account linking update. The May 6 update, which would have required Steam and PlayStation Network account linking for new players and for current players beginning May 30, will not be moving forward.
We’re still learning what is best for PC players and your feedback has been invaluable. Thanks again for your continued support of Helldivers 2 and we’ll keep you updated on future plans."
Now, will gamers take all this fervor and aim it at the likes of EA, Ubisoft, Take2, and others who have way more invasive and problem-causing apps for Steam games?
Sony is like a whipping boy for the industry and it's just lame at this point. This is like my Activision account I use for Call of Duty. I'm not a 'fan'' of Activision but it's free and it comes in handy. The PSN account would come handy if they decide to do cross saves and I'm sure some other stuff too. I have an account for practically everything, including this site. I need a Microsoft account to play some PS5 games. No one has been able to explain what the big problem with a PSN account was.
They dont want one because they cant trust them with all the times Sony got hacked which makes no sense cause steam got hacked so does everythinv else in this world. Been with playstation and i never had a problem security wise. PlayStation doesnt hold SSN and you dont have to put you credit card on it either. Pc users just wanna cry, its a PlayStation game they should be happy Sony putting games on pc to begin with. Also funny they dont trust Sony but yet would play there games when on pc.
Christopher with all I do respect, your bias is showing heavily, be positive, congratulate people and ask for them to do more, no need for this passive aggressive bitterness
I’d argue there’s a better softer approach they could do, just make it optional with bonus for people who did it like some free cosmetics and make it required only for cross-play and cross-save purposes. That way the people who can do it have bonus incentives and people in countries without psn can still play without problems.
Sony is also extremely bad i think alot i mean alot of people are in the clouds thinking its 2010's.
I agree with the whole other publishers should also remove there link unless for crossplay of course but sony its the worse right now.
As of 2023 sony requires your real information dob/address/phone number even phone text's for login but the way worse part is the need for personal government id.
The way sony account creation is no one can make a account until they are a legal adult in there country then you got all that data on a server with the same security as donal trump's bathroom file cabinet.
Oh also sony's terms of service says if you use a vpn its a auto ban remember sony uses bots to monitor everyone.
With Microsoft every person that has windows 11 installed there is a very high chance you already have a account microsft account is xbox account there creation page is still basic but no doubt will get just as bad a sony soon.

Thank goodness they went back on this decision because if it stayed then even users that could make a account might not have been able do too the lack of a govt id.
Here come the disagrees even though i left proof.
But this is n4g alot of you would give sony anything they want your fortune first born child anything so your sin/govt card is nothing for those kind.
The government id is only in certain countries and it's not Sony's decision. It's laws your governmwnt like mine here in UK made that means they require that.
“…alot of you would give sony anything they want your fortune first born child anything so your sin/govt card is nothing for those kind.”
It’ll be alright. Just breathe…
You have disagrees because everything you said was ill informed. It's like this is your first insight into regional requirements.
I would save your anger for the companies that don't listen to it's player base.
@mrd

I am so tired of this community i do not know why sony does not support trump at this point its the same fan pool
Its not sony its the evil government leave poor sony alone right n4g i cant be bad to the person you give a bj too every night.

I have not seen a news article that says uk has a gun to the head of companies forcing them to make you provide govt ids.
Now china yes they have the id to play shit or egypt www lockdown.
But i know know its sony they must make shit movies destroy every ip and fire all there old staff to replace with cheaper staff then sell glorified tablets at $500 usd.
The difference is EA, Ubisoft, Take2, etc didn't release their games and then down the line implement forced account linkage under the guise of "security". Gamers know from when they buy EA and Ubisoft games that you'll need an account with those companies. Also when was the last time a company delisted an extremely popular game from over 100 countries?
It was listed on the game as a requirement and it was a decision by arrowhead so that people could get into the game. In future companies won't be able to make such decisions and you will simply be left unable to play the game.
Thank you! I have a PS account, but bought this on PC. I just hate having to do stupid stuff like this just to get into the game I bought.
You should try getting a resident evil MP working not as bad as making a sony account but its right up there i tried with a fake dump email holy spam batman. I never finished the account creation
Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 remakes are likely off the table forever, as new claims from anonymous Activision devs bury your hopes for good.
"Tony Hawk himself purported that plans were in place until Vicarious Visions’ obligations to Activision’s mammoth FPS game franchise, Call of Duty, got in the way"
Same what happened to Raven Softworks sadly
We'll never get Singularity 2
This is kinda pathetic on Activision. Hire someone else to do a remake if you have to. Not every dev needs to be working on cod
In a poignant announcement, Dutch indie developer Paladin Studios bid farewell after an impressive run spanning “almost 19 years.”
I am still very sad The Evil Within is not on the list. Such an underrated game. It should have been in best New IP category. Oh well, it doesn't matter now.
And I think the real fun will be the GOTY's of 2015. Its going to be a wild year.
I already voted Cat.
Hugs and see you soon.
I'm gonna be honest. I really didn't find Shadows of Mordor that great. I mean, it was definitely good, and the nemesis system was interesting (to a point), but there was also a lot I didn't like.
I want to win it
Just entered. So many great games last year.
