my issue is the spike vga's but even this surprised me And that's The Walking De winning the goty award. really? Over Assassins creed 3, Journey, Dishonored and Mass Effect 3? Halo 4 wasnt even nominated. Far Cry wasn't either. And this hammy point and click wom it. I played it and i remember uninstalling it due to boredom. and i gave it a chance. i had it for a good week, and i watch the show religiously but this has got to be the worst pick for goty ever. even for spike's vga it a new low.
and Halo 4 best graphics? I could name a half dozen recently released games on pc right now that'd blow halo 4's graphics away. i could name a bunch that came out last year alone...

Some of those I'd agree with. Mass Effect 3 is a beautifully crafted game, even if the ending (that I'm quickly approaching) is supposed to be terrible.
Walking Dead has been a real dark horse this year, but everyone that plays it speaks so very highly of it that I'm going to buy it and see for myself.
But not exceptionally better than the other nommines. imo, walking dead only has it's story, that's it. but the other nomines had that and more. better gameplay, a higher replay value, way better controls, better graphics and more.
i was surprised to see that they were nominated in the first place.
and xcom over diablo 3 ftw?
'sigh' i dunno.

Considering that the recipients are decided by popular vote, that is no surprise.
That said, some of the awards were a hit, some were a miss.

Walking Dead the game was great. I'm fairly pleased with that as GOTY. I do agree with whoever said earlier about the best song not being too great. Just listened to it now. Severely disappointed. Listened to their suggestion, much better than whatever it was that won.

) but it's a solid choice.
