I saw Titanfall, I don't get all the hype. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with it. I just don't see what's amazing about it either.
 

Not a Jellyfish

but I am a sheep
How can Titanfall be the best next gen game but Destiny be the best action game?

So strange to me, wouldn't it be both? I hate awards.

Poor Ubisoft...

Can someone explain. How can TitanFall win best next gen console game but Destiny win Best Online Multiplayer Game and BF4 win best PC game? Isn't TitalFall pretty much just an online multiplayer game?
 
Best Next Generation Console Game:
Titanfall (Electronic Arts)


Ugh... can't wait for this forced hype train to stop.

It's not even a next generation game, it's cross gen, AND PC, which makes this:

Best PC Game:
Battlefield 4 (Electronic Arts)


Even more stupid.

Eh, I don't really understand why Titanfall is as big as it's becoming. Sure, it looks good, but it consistently wipes the floor with the game show awards. I'd say Division, Infamous, Destiny and Killzone look just as good if not better.
 
I honestly feel like I'm missing something when it comes to Titanfall, but every time I watch something about it, I do not get the hype and I have no idea why it's running away with awards left, right and centre.

Destiny looks cool, but since when is it categorized as an action game? It's an FPS. It feels like Platinum Games' Bayonetta 2/ Wonderful 101 just got robbed.

I'm not an NPC. And neither are we.

Guessing it's something you gotta play to understand, I felt the same way way back when the hype train was going for CoD4. Finally played the beta and I understood.

I really thought Drive Club looked better than Forza. There are also no nominations for Killzone in terms of graphics.

Wait edit: Destiny is best PS4 title? OK...

Would you rather one game win all the awards?
No, it just seems they are giving TitalFall an award it shouldn't have consider it on the PC and lost best PC game to BF. It's a MP game and lost best MP game to Destiny. If anything, it should be either BF or Destiny that should have won Game of Show base on the fact that both game beat TitalFall for being the best in those categories .

Also TitanFall is on PC but Battlefield 3 won best PC game, but BF3 lost best console agains't Titanfall?
That shit makes no sense.

That shit makes no sense.

And TitanFall is an Online game ONLY, and still lost agains't Destiny for best online game? and if Destiny online is better than TF, then what is better in TF? the non-existant campaign?

Edit: I didn't liked the Titanfall praise on the E3 awards, but at least those awards made sense.

They named "Best of Gamescom" after the show's over, which must have been after my link source. I can't find that news on the Gamescom website. Will add of course, do you have an url?
If you click your link you can read it as part of the bolded section.

I'm not too sure to be honest regarding TitalFall being online only.
but yeah, these awards are confusing as hell.

It's the link I already posted. http://www.gamescom.de/de/gamescom/presse/presseinformationen/gc_pressinformationen.php?aktion=pfach&p1id=kmpresse_gamescom_d&format=html&base=&tp=k3content&search=&pmid=kmeigen.kmpresse_1377434851&start=0&anzahl=10&channel=kmeigen&language=d

It's really well hidden. Look at the forth star. There it is.

Call of Duty deserved and received nothing.

Don't see why Destiny is in the Playstation game slot. Killzone should have been there, but maybe it had a bigger reveal too late.
