The Game Awards Nominees being announced [Update: Revealed - In OP]

I guessed three of those right. Really expected Smash to be there. Hearthstone and DSII was unexpected to me. Especially Hearthstone. Really didn't like it myself, but fair nominees.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
I'm legitemately shocked that people care about the actual awards of this show, I only ever watchted the VGA's for the announcements. xD
Also no MGSV for most anticipated? That seems....odd.

I think that's a cool GOTY nominee list, Inquisition is the only game I haven't played yet. Dark Souls 2 is a surprise, but I did play a ton of it.
 
Wait, I thought Heartstone was a card game, not a video game? Isn't this like MS Solitaire being nominated?

I really have no clue, I'm not being a troll.

GOTY list isn't very diverse—but that probably says a lot about the quality of next-gen games we've had this year.

Bayo is now nominated. What are the odds it actually wins now? The fact it doesn't have competing Nintendo games competing with it for votes to me means they have a real chance. (I know its made by Platinum)
 
The GOTY picks are all good, I think. I feel like Donkey Kong and perhaps Smash should have been there, but there were only five slots.

And Telltale up for Developer of the Year? I love their games, but that's utterly laughable.

no AC Unity, remastered games, or shooters on that GOTY list is fucking great, lists so far have all been surprisingly good. Wish Smash WiiUgot something though, sucks they missed the cutoff
 
I thought DS2 was supposedly disappointing, but I actually loved Bayonetta 2 despite not being a big fan of the genre and Hearthstone is probably the best mobile game ever, so the GOTY list is overall very good.
