This year's Game Awards show is going to be interesting - The Shooter Genre especially has some amazing contenders this year, Overwatch, Battlefield 1, Titanfall 2, Doom. A little disappointed that Sun/Moon aren't in the list of nominees this year, but I hope they get it next year (which is why I was surprised to see Xenoblade Chronicles X this year - kind of forgot about it, but it's still in my backlog though.)
There have been a number of games that are worthy of their praise - it's kinda unfair to single out just one as the best there is. Either way, this is going to be interesting. (p.s - Zelda ought to win most anticipated)
