They should have Jeff Gerstmann in that list every year.
And yeah, Overwatch will win GOTY.

Jesus Christ, what the fuck is up with all the "I just hope Uncharted 4/Overwatch doesn't win" comments?
I'm not saying you have to like them, but focus on what you want to win instead of what you don't. That's fucking weird.

Under "Best Esports Player" it lists "Infiltrator" from Team Razer for Street Fighter V.
...I haven't been following fighting games for a while... did Infiltration change his name? Or is there a new dude named "Infiltrator" who's cleaning up the Street Fighter scene? That'd be quite a story, lol

That's a strong exaggeration. Not that walking simulators can't be nominated... Games can be multiple things.
But yeah, personally speaking, I'd put Dark Souls 3, The Witness and Hitman above it. Thumper as well. Where is it?
Out of the GotY nominees I played DOOM, Overwatch and Uncharted 4. Out of those I would give it to DOOM since it caught me by surprise. Fucking fantastic game. Overwatch was alright but I kinda fell out of it.
Uncharted 4 (together with Dark Souls 3) isn't in my Top 5 for the year. Good games (one could argue great games) but for me they were kind off more of the same.

I get it was a phenomenon, but Pokemon go really doesn't deserve to be on any goty lists

I'd pick Uncharted 4 but saying that Overwatch is probably gonna win GOTY.

Rough year for narratives based on the games nominated for that category (haven't played Mafia III).

From this list, my GOTY choice is Uncharted 4 by far, but it's not going to be my personal choice as a whole.
Crossing all fingers for Oxenfree in the narrative nomination and Thumper for the sound design !
Street Fighter V for the win or GTFO.
Someone from Oxenfree SHOULD have been in the voice performance (probably Alex/Erin Yvette for me).
PS VR everywhere for the VR category ^_^
One more remark, I wish someone gave a fuck about Furi.

Good list. I think Dark Souls 3 should be in the GOTY talks too, but I don't mind too much. Uncharted 4 is still my GOTY despite a good show from Titanfall 2.

Why not Crendor?
That's completely fair. The Grammys won't accept albums for consideration if it's not submitted by a certain date. Same should go for this as well.

I think I saw it under family games
Literally all of my personal GOTYs (Deus Ex: MD, Hitman, Witcher 3 B&W, Dishonored 2) robbed. I feel these journalists are so out of touch. DOOM for example feels like the typical "Yeah people liked that, right? Let's add it" pick. I love that game, but GOTY? Come on. Also it's obvious R6S will be robbed of the MP crown it deserves and the award will go to Overwatch or Titanfall 2 anyways.

Personally, I thought the nioh alpha and beta tests were better than ds3. Huge souls fan but still haven't had the urge to finish the game. Sitting at the last bonfire. I think im getting tired of the setting hence why i had more fun with nioh and bloodborne. However, as an uncharted fan, i think Ds3 should be on that list over Uc4. What a disappointment

Uncharted 4 will win
You must have very high standards
It's in Best Strategy.

It is nominated ! In the family friendly category.
My top 5:
1) Forza Horizon 3
2) Inside
3) The Witness
4) Quantum Break
5) Gears of War 4
But to be fair I don't play on Playstation - I haven't played Uncharted 4 yet. But I will be getting a PS4 eventually because XB1 won't be getting Zero Escape games. I will eventually play Uncharted 4 and if I had to guess, I bet it would sit at #4 for me. But who knows. *shrug*

UC4 for me. I bought doom based on the hype and while I liked the speed and gunplay of it I kinda found it to get stale and boring after a while.

I mean if there were categories for 'Most steps back for a developer' or 'Games you should watch a Let's Play instead of playing it' I'd vote for Uncharted 4.

That is actually a fantastic list for goty, but Firewatch doesn't deserve to win best narrative. Not with that ending.
