Hello,

The votes have been counted, and the winners of all categories in our game of the year awards have been decided!
This thread will play host to a live awards show this Thursday, beginning at 5:30pm, where I will announce the winners. Many thanks to everyone who voted, and I'll see y'all in here on Thursday at half 5 :)

This will be a bit of an anti-climax but yeah I hope to see some surprises in other categories.

I do think that this should have been done via PM only. That way, although we kinda got an idea of which games would be GotY, we wouldn't have known for sure.

Buff, any interesting stats come out of the poll?

Upon initial inspection, almost 30 games were deemed to be "Game of the Year" by forumites here, which I think is encouraging. It's indicative of the breadth of quality throughout the year, and the eclectic taste of our populace. Unfortunately, Flipnote Studio only got 1 vote :(
I'm sure there'll be more interesting conclusions...when I end up finishing the other categories

If Demon's Souls doesn't take Best Import Game then I'm leaving forever.

You 'eard.

I can't account for PM votes, but I think Dragon Age might have got it.

That's its own fault for being single-platform.

Doesn't stop it being vastly superior :|


I would like to say at this point that I am joking around here and am just trying to ruffle feathers, I know my own personal opinions and am happy with them and do not care if the games I like don't gooseberry fool :lol:

But it stops people realising that, which was the point in the first place.
