[The Wolf Among You]

ABOUT THE GAME AWARDS
The Game Awards, created by Geoff Keighley, is an annual awards ceremony to honor outstanding artistic, technical and gameplay achievements in the video game industry. Spanning console, mobile and PC gaming, as well as eSports, The Game Awards is the first of a new breed of award shows, built from the ground up exclusively for global digital and streaming platforms.

The game awards is guided by an advisory board that includes the executive leadership teams from Activision (Eric Hirshberg, CEO), AMD (Dr. Lisa Su, CEO), Electronic Arts (Peter Moore, CCO), Microsoft (Phil Spencer, Head of Xbox), Nintendo of America (Reggie Fils-Aime, President), Rockstar Games, Sony Interactive Entertainment (Shawn Layden, Chairman, SIE Worldwide Studios), Telltale Games (Steve Allison, SVP Publishing), Ubisoft (Yves Guillemot, CEO), Valve and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment (David Haddad, President). The advisory board is not involved in the selection of nominees or winners, and learns of the winners at the same time of the public, live at the Awards ceremony.

So, do you agree with the Nominees?

 

[PullOutGawd]

NHL17 is the best sports game
Anybody want smoke

& Fallout 4 DLC is amazing

 

[Kamikaze Revy]

Gears Of War 4 isn't even nominated?

Geoff Keighley and The Game Awards 2016 can

 

[Fatboi1]

Gears Of War 4 isn't even nominated?

Geoff Keighley and The Game Awards 2016 can

Gears 4 wasn't good enough

 

[Cryptocurrency Scarface]

In.










maybe there will be switch info expect Uncharted or Overwatch to win it

 

[Kamikaze Revy]

Gears 4 wasn't good enough

Gears 4 is easily better than Doom and Inside (Even though both of those games are great in their own right)

 

[The Mad Titan]

Overwatch should run the show... but it wont.

 

[Los!]

BATTLEFIELD WON

 

[LordLyons]

No Man's Sky should be game of the year

 

[The Wolf Among You]

Bulletstorm HD and Telltale's Guardians of the Galaxy speculated to be announced at the show.

 

[CarolinaKing]

This is the weakest selection of GOTY candidates I've seen.

My vote would go to Doom

 

[Tunez]

Pokemon GO should lose

 

[FlyRy]

This is the weakest selection of GOTY candidates I've seen.

Because this generation has been garbage so far. I think next year will be a strong year.

 

[NoMorePie]

Uncharted about to run the show

 

[Kamikaze Revy]

Because this generation has been garbage so far. I think next year will be a strong year.

This gen has had a ton of great games and we're even seeing games that we've been waiting on for years that many thought were cancelled
