Damn son, TLOU straight up dominated. There won't be a distinct winner this year I bet.

So proud of the Last of Us being up there by a mile, my favorite game in a very long time. This year's award will be easy: either Smash Bros. or Bayonetta 2 I bet.

only game to win GAF's GOTY while not being top 3 (top 2 actually) in the media is....Metal Gear Solid 4, ironically also the most controversial one

C'mon, man. You know how the cool kids work. If it's universally acclaimed, it must be terrible.

That was the impression I got from the post. There just is no objective reasoning to support the claim, subjective tastes are naturally a different matter though.
