Looks like the Game Developers Choice Awards are coming up and they released the contenders for each catagory. I am happy to say that I have played most of these and am really happy with the choices. There are a few that I am extra happy to see get some love since they kind of flew by really quick. When it comes to GOTY, I know it’s gonna be tough to chose from the titles listed, All were favorites for different reasons. The other nice thing about nominations like this is that it gives me the chance to see something that I may have missed in the release year.
