GTA will reap all the awards because GTA.

Or if the journalists are very objective, they will choose Troy and Ashley as best voice actors. Although Trevor's VA was freaking amazing, so there's that too.

Best shooter should go to Metro/Bioshock (if BF4 or CoD gets it after their terrible launches/content, I'll be pissed).

Best song in a game will obviously go to Sleepwalking, I'd be happy as heck for Will The Circle be Unbroken, but there's no way that after a GTA concert they are going home empty handed.

EDIT: Doing the list for fun:

Given the list of Advisory Council members, I'm not entirely sure. Why on Earth Polygon get 3 members on there (more than any other outlet), plus a journo from Official Xbox Magazine and now USGamer too. Don't think the journo from Official Nintendo mag is on there any more either, and none from any of the Official Sony outlets has ever been on there ever.

Just feels like a very disappointing selection of Advisory members/judges, and somewhat skewed.

TheSinkingKnight · (Today, 04:29 AM)

GTA V will probably win everything.

ChewyDev · (Today, 04:34 AM)

I'm torn between TLoU and GTA5. I think that they both had really great single player, but I think I was more satisfied with TLoU's conclusion.

Gotta back Naughty dog on this one.

TheRealTalker · (Today, 04:35 AM)

GTA was good but not as intense and thrilling as TLOU

That game gave me classical vibes, while GTA was well a good GTA

Hope TLOU wins this, sadly it won't
Edit: Also lol at the Bossman reference

Papercuts · 04:37 AM

I'm not super familiar with how they work, but does a game being GotY discredit it from winning other sections? So if GTA wins would it automatically be best action adventure too? It would make sense but I'm guessing they don't.

Lol The Last of us won't win GOTY

GTA V will..

But the studio of the year will be closer, either Rockstar North or Naughty Dog

gastricacid · (Today, 04:37 AM)

If gta 5 wins goty, then it will be well deserved. I also wouldn't mind super mario 3d world being a surprise winner as well, but with the sells it's been receiving I'm not too sure.

Sometime a game is a better overall game than a better "Action Adventure" or other type of game. For instance, Bioshock of 2007 wasnt a strong RPG, so it would probably not win best RPG over another.

Why GT6 didn't made it into the racing nominees but GRID 2 did, what a load of BS.
It's such a joke that VA get any sort of recognition before any of the talented people that makes possible the characters they voice in the first place.

TLOU to clean up most of the awards, with GTAV taking a few as well (Action Adventure as a consolation prize).

Shooter and PC game were probably the most difficult ones but I'm guessing the judges will ignore how broken BF4 is.

GTA5 will probably win GOTY because gaming journos have an attention span of a goldfish. The latest, biggest AAA game released gets all awards.

Though, I think, they don't deserve it.
