Valhalla and BLM Morales got nominated at TGA but where is Demon's Souls?

Sluggishly rotting in hell I guess :ROFLMAO:

i don't think Demons Souls made the cut, no press was given access to the game before Nov 11th. These noms are probably decided before that.

Cut off date is November 20 so Demon's Souls was eligible.

So Flight Sim also gets nominated in its category but Demon's Souls is completely absent.

For all the talk about MS not getting represented it has more nominations than Nintendo? Yikes.

I think Halo: Combat Evolved in 2001 was the last legitimate time an MS game won a bunch of GoTY awards.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    MS one upping Sony in catching the biggest L in gaming
    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
