I can live with Splatoon in the shooter category. It's fresh and it's some good fun.
But man, Black Ops 3 was robbed in the multiplayer category. No mp-shooter in the history of gaming is so well executed, so complete out the door. From the whole eSport-functionalities to the casual-modes, the incredible amount of content, the balance. Every single piece of this game was thought through and executed properly. If you are a tryhard or a casual gamer, an unlock hunter or just playing the same gun over and over, this game has everything - top-shelf stuff. And then there is gunsmith/paintshop, zombies, the campagn build around coop and replayability etc...
Again, Splatoon is fresh and new and is a great piece of software. But if you think of multiplayer as the whole fucking concept with each and every part of it in mind, Black Ops 3 should have won by a mile. The award category was not original design.
But those eSport categories proved that the Game Awards are years away of making meaningful decision about multiplayer games. Sad.
