It is that narrative and character development and the uneasy questions that the game forces you to examine that makes the game such a great story driven game and to me the odds out favorite for GOTY, too bad we're discussing it on the forums of a game that would be up for the equivalent of the razzies. |

That's a good thing, stories should promote thinking and even a little self reflection, the majority of video games tend to toe the line and go for the heroic sacrifice ending in this kind of game, nice to see one that doesn't.
Its the kind of ending that Mass Effect was going for but they didnt botch it up. |

GTA V will win game of the year i beat last of us in 2 days. Collecting dust since then no replay value at all, also to linear good lord give. Players choices to have different outcomes. Walking dead was better Last of us overrated.
Wrong again, GTA V will win some GOTY awards cause of fanboism but it wont be anything spectacularly new or amazing. It will be a fun solid game to play.
TLoU was dark gritty fun and new on many levels. It took the tired genre of survival genres and made it feel refreshing and alive. Moreover linear games are vital to effective story telling. This wasnt a game to just play a game, this was a 15+hr interactive narrative that immersed you into the lives of a very sympathetic world and it refused to give you the tired conclusion that you expect and want yet ***** when you get it.
Game is GOTY at VGA and at least IGN, Machinima probably gives it to GTA V. Beyond this i really dont care. But this game will win the most GOTY awards IMO. GTA V following a close 2nd. |
