Hmmm, i thought it would be either The Last Guardian or Uncharted 4... too bad.

Sadly, I had no idea there was an awards show for games. Of course, they don't advertise nearly as much as for TV, movies, etc. What channel and time are they on? Also, what date? I have never seen them before. It's pretty cool that they get some acknowledgment for their hard work.

Very nice info. I also didn't know there sis a show about this. I new they choose the best game but this list is much more than that obviously. I rooted for Fallout 4 to be honest and I see that Just Cause is nowhere here which is really too bad. I liked the game so much and I know people don't take it too seriously but I just love it. It's a game it should be fun.

However, the Witcher was just phenomenal. I played it several times only but it was great.
