The big winner is - not entirely unexpected I suppose - Baldur’s Gate 3, scoring 5 categories directly.
The Xbox GOTY is baffling. You had Dead Space, Pentiment, and Hi-Fi Rush as the nominees and they picked Starfield? I get it’s the most popular but all three of those were way better. Hi-Fi Rush got scammed.
The rest of the rewards seem good. I’m glad Cocoon got some recognition.
Xbox paid for Jankfield to win
Recency bias at work
Hell yeah! Voted for all the BG3 stuff but the “Playstatiom Game of the Year?” also voted for RE4 hoping it would win and sure enough, it did!
God I love those two games so much
What a magnificent year for Nintendo, a console with very old hardware being in their probably last year, coming with this line-up is just amazing.
It does goes to show hardware isn’t everything. In fact it’s a pretty small factor for most if the games are fun.
