Game of the Year 2020

seems like it's really just Ghost of Tsushima vs. TLOU2, -maybe- FF7 remake

others feel just like list padding

Should be Ghost, will be LOU2.

Ghost gets my vote. Enjoyed Last of us 2 but really liked Ghost of Tsushima more

[Starter Set]

What a weird selection.

Hades is GOTY material. Anyone should try that game, it's incredibly fun and catches you like nothing else.
And it's pretty well made.

Way better than FF7R, for example.

Pretty slow gaming year. Doom Eternal is on sale now, but probably won’t get round to Ghost Of Tsushima until next year. Probably LOU2 will win, as it was a pretty good upgrade from the original.

I'm rooting for Animal Crossing. It honestly had the most impact of any game released in 2020.

[Derek Metaltron]

To be honest LOU2 is only likely to win because of its mature subject matter and inclusive nature and not much else. Animal Crossing or Ghost makes more sense in terms of gaming.

I've only played TLOU2 but its hard for me to fathom any game winning over it. I've played video games for nearly 40 years now and this is the only second game ever that emotionally affected me as this game did. The other was the The Last of Us. I finished the game and was just emotionally drained but I say that as a positive. I've played many a game with a great story but with all the rest it was finish, shrug, and move on to the next. With this one I wasn't sure I wanted to play something else. I dealt with that by going back and playing The Last of Us again. Then TLOU2 again. Then decided to finally push through the Uncharted series where I'd only played the first two games - while good and a great story I really only think of Nate, Sully, and Elena when doing comparisons whereas I think of Joel, Ellie, and Abby all the time. The game has stuck with me.
