Sooooo, Uncharted 4 has pretty much no competition?

Can you really say you like the other ones more?
Except in all the categories they are in.
No dishonored 2 as possible goty? Or pokemin sun and moon? Why do these awards exist when they are just frauds?
pokemon*
The game isn’t even out yet you mongoloid
Of course the industry keeps sucking that naughty dog cock. Uncharted 4 was mediocre at best.
Why is “The Game Awards 2017” one of the Tags?
Glad no one in the real world takes this seriously.
You’re the one taking it too seriously.
Go pay sony more money for online you stupid gimp.
You’re funny. You should do stand up comedy.
Paying sony for online isnt even funny. Its sad. Peasants will be peasants though I guess.
People can do what they want with their money.
Bitching about the handheld feature of the Switch isn’t funny, either. It’s just incredibly cheap & sad since there are thousands of electronics with at least one or two features that many don’t use but they buy the product anyway. But I guess cheap idiots will be cheap idiots.
Least with paying for online, we get a bunch of nice goodies like a free game every month if we choose to get it, cloud storage for our save data, and free discounts ranging from as little as 5% to even 90% off unlike Nintendo who makes you buy shit for those discounts that only range from 20% to 30% off using the shitty My Nintendo. In fact, Sony should be getting my 60 bucks for PlayStation Plus on the 1st of January. It’s not Sony’s fault you are just a cheap or poor little bitch. Get a better paying job, kid!
No ow for best narrative?
It’s a shame that Xenoblade X, a fire first party Nintendo title, isn’t making the list since it came out December 2015. A game of Skyrim/Fallout caliber and it’s overshadowed by its awkward release date and an inexplicable general disregard for good Nintendo games outside of Mario, Zelda and Pokémon. Thumbs down for the Game Awards.
Xenoblade X is a nominee under Best Role Playing Game

There is more to this list. Xenoblade Chronicles is one of the nominees for Best RPG and Fire Emblem Fates is a nominee for Best Strategy Game.
}{ Reading through this list makes me realize just how bad this year has been for Nintendo fans… Fates was probably the best game this year, and it was plagued by poor menus and a lackluster story… and then there was the game even I won’t speak of, that is abbreviated as M.F.F. }{
Worst year in videogame history
wow I really don’t like that list at all. Pokemon SuMo isn’t included, nor is Final Fantasy XV. Why didn’t they at least wait until December?
And why aren’t there genre categories? Tokyo Mirage is probably the best RPG I’ve played, unless FFXV is better. Though Digimon Cyber Sleuth is up there too
To all nintendo fans out there.
If you like pokemon would you buy a brand new new 3ds (xl) to play pokemon sun and moon, or wait until the switch?
plz answer
I definitely support U4 100%
Jesus. There are a lot of titles not shown here. Isn’t this being called a bit early? And why are Handheld games being tied to Mobile? They’re different in almost every way. They really should’ve waited and held this in January.
I HATE how this awards show adds handheld & mobile games into one category! Mobile games are no where on the same fucking level as handheld games! Knock it off!! Not to mention the other games are gonna get screwed over by Pokemon GO. Talk about unfair! So good luck to you, Monster Hunter Generations & Fire Emblem Fates. You guys have been unfairly pitted against games that have billions of supporters while you two probably only have a couple million.
Well I’ll be. Xenoblade Chronicles X is in the RPG nominees… along with Witcher 3’s Blood & Wine expansion!? … Best of luck, XCX! Ya gonna need it!
XD Holy fucking shit! Nintendo & GameFreak are gonna be so fucking pissed! Project A Metroid 2 Remake & Pokemon Uranium are in the fan’s choice award for Best Fan Creation! lol
Fuck! I was gonna vote for Zelda: Breath of the Wild as Most Anticipated Game but I need a fucking Twitter account! Yeah. Not gonna fucking happen in a million years! If I could log into the site itself as a spectator user or use my Facebook account, sure. But Twitter!? One of the social media sites with THE worst userbase in the history of social media!? Fuck no!
log into The Game Awards site itself* Fixed. I don’t want the less intelligent anons that have been pouring into MNN to get confused.
No paper mario color splash for the Best Family Game?
But Kirby Planet Robobot…
the list is incomplete. Xenoblade X is a nominee for best RPG
“Best VR.” ….Really?
And Pokemon Go vs. FEF. Interesting.~
