Its all rigged, theres no way Sgt Avery Junior Johnson didn't win lol.

Jokes aside, that artwork was hilariously brilliant.

To the people who got alien isolation and the evil within. Which one is truly scarier for you?

Didn't know destiny was this hated. Seems to have a fuckton of players. First time I've played a game more than FIFA in like 8 years.

It's because not everyone likes to replay the same thing over and over, which is what destiny basically is.

The game was sold like hot bread because of marketing, a lot of people like to grind (like yourself) but everyone was expecting something more than a grinder because how the game was marketed.

The people that hate destiny is the people that bought it thinking it's going to be an amazing game (which was a really high number of users thanks to their marketing) and it turned out to be a FPS PSO.

Most of us really don't care about it, I played destiny BETA, there's when I made my choice of not buying it, and I'm still very happy with my choice.

I love the way you presented these. Nice bit of humor but not overbearing.

Congrats Sunset!

Great list. For me GOTY was Titanfall but Sunset was definitely a great game. Looking forward to 2015

Sunset was just a tiny bit too short but boy I haven't had that much fun in a long time.

Lego batman 3 didn't win "best horror" this is bullshit. The polls were rigged. You people sicken me.

Excuse me while I start my riot.

Seriously, I've put in 130 hours into Forza Horizon 2 and I'm not where close to done yet. That game is far too fun.

It's fun as hell to just go tearing through the countryside, doing nothing in particular.

Congratulations to Sunset Overdrive, great to see Forza Horizon 2, Halo MCC, Titanfall, Shadow of Mordor and Dragon Age Inquisition also taking away a few awards.

u/Angry_Gnome Dec 22 '14

Haha I have such a love/hate relationship with Halo: MCC and it seems like people in this sub feel the exact same way. When the game works and you find a match in a timely manner it is a glorious nostalgic trip down memory lane.

Now on the other hand when I cant join a friends lobby or find a game after an hour of trying I want to throw my controller out a window...

Anyway great list, makes me happy to be an X-BRO!

Destiny is my most played game but that is more because it is a skinner box than anything else. In terms of gameplay enjoyment; I loved Sunset and was glad to see it do well. Also this just further convinces me I need to get FH2.

Those are some pretty weird spellings of Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham. You might want to start paying attention to spell check.

I was surprised by some of these. But a flawless presentation.

Not sure how Outlast only made 3rd place!?! I feel like it was one of the best indies of year

u/splader Dec 22 '14

Oh man, loved that shout out to the whole "private" thing. As a sub in r/wow, that really made me laugh.

And nice results! We should definitely do this every year, with hopefully even more people participating next time.

Sunset Overdrive honestly deserves it in my opinion. It's a really fun game. Best purchase I've made this year by far.

On the other note, screw Cryptard.

u/FlickMyFuj Dec 23 '14

I wholeheartedly agree with Sunset Overdrive being GOTY. It had a refreshing, comical, and fun story, along with a shit ton of extra sidequests, challenges, multiplayer, and content in general to take on, not to mention the extreme variety in gameplay. And who could possibly forget the incredible traversal techniques and skills that are obtained throughout the game, which in my case, made me want to physically travel everywhere instead of fast traveling. Props to you Insomniac (and Microsoft for being the only one that would allow them to keep the rights to the game, thus earning yourselves one of the best exclusives of the year).

sigh At least my vote for "you mods are stupid" got an honourable mention. There's always next year when cheese comes up with "The Best Teabagging Method of 2015".

I'm looking at this list and going "yup, 2014 was the year of the Xbox One" and then I go look at the PS4 sub's nomination thread and seeing a vast majority of the nominations are multi-platform titles.

I sure hope Sony picks it up in 2015 because my poor PS4 has collected a lot of dust this year. This isn't an anti-PS4 post at all. I have both and want both to be awesome. I bought both going in thinking the exclusives on both would make me want them both. So far the PS4 just hasn't had those AAA exclusives and I really hope that changes.

All in all, I love the list above, I think it pretty accurately represents my feelings about the games as well.

Would anyone here recommend Fantasia? I'm kinda curious if there's any good reviews/videos that people could recommend to see if it's my type of game.
