@kyleforrester87 the world was better in horizon,it was less repetitive than neir,had better sidequests,I liked the story a little better in horizon,it had better va and way better enemies when it comes to design and variety.
@Fight_Teza_Fight I don't know what you expect from a console in it's first 10 months but yes, actually, a lot of Switch stuff, which is where I played Sonic Mania, and other games I could've had on PS4. I just don't count them because...well I played them elsewhere.
Then there is my gaming PC, because that's a thing for multiplats I enjoy. Then my 3DS, as I had a bit of a backlog. Some pre-owned GameCube, Wii and GBA games came in for me around April. Still got loads of DS/GBA and Wii games to play that I've picked up. Spent January playing Far Cry 4 and Wind Waker HD finally. Even plugged in my PS2 for some Jak X. Oh, and can't forget my first go of Luigi's Mansion either.
Now Playing: Mario & Luigi Brothership, Sonic x Shadow Generations
Now Streaming: The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom
@YummyHappyPills Fair enough. Barring PC there's no platform as diverse as PS imo. There's a little bit of something for someone (Or in my case too much for my wallet to handle).
The PS4 library is so much better than PS3s. I used to buy like 5-10 games a year tops. Now it's like 30-40.

@Fight_Teza_Fight Thats fine. Most of the library isnt for me and I can get what I do want on it elsewhere a lot of the time, as current exclusives as evidenced by my votes, do nothing for me.
Ok guys let's leave this thread for actually voting, I think @themcnoisy will appreciate having having not to weed through a hundred posts of discussions to find votes. If you wish to discuss what games you played there is always the chit chat thread.
Thanks for understanding.

I shall be abstaining as we're also working on our "staff" Game of the Year, but the thread is looking great and I look forward to posting the results up in an article when it's all determined!
@KratosMD Sorry, I won't be voting. I have only played Wolfenstein 2 so far this year and I have Shadow of War to start but I certainly won't get on it by tomorrow.
Good luck with your GOTY though, I'll keep watching
@Dichotomy 3 out of my 5 were played on my Xbox but as they are identical in terms of story, game-play etc I voted for them. I am sure the game would have been equally as highly placed if I only had the PS4 versions.
As always, its more a reflection on the games people played rather than voting for the 'best' games released this year. You aren't going to get people to vote for Horizon: Zero Dawn for example if they haven't played it. Trying to pick 5, especially if you have multiple platforms, specifically on Playstation wouldn't be possible for some if you can only pick 5 that you played exclusively on Sony's console. If people could actually vote on games they 'believe' to be the best out of every game released on PS this year, rather than specifically out of the games they played, I wonder how different the scores would be. I still think H:ZD would top the list but I do think we would see some positions very different.
Its great to see H:ZD sitting at the top (where it belongs in my opinion) as its absolutely fantastic - even with the overkill on open world games. It also doesn't make this game a 'service' with 'loot' boxes either - something that could easily have been added. Weapons, armour sets, resource bundles etc, maybe some 'daily/weekly' bounties and 'special' events (like killing a rogue or corrupted Machine(s), Defend a village from attack etc etc) all could have made it into the game. Its not the deepest RPG or has a plethora of side quests etc but its still such a great game with 'epic moments' every where. One of my favourites was overriding a Lockjaw in an area where there were multiple other machines - inc another Lockjaw and then watching the battle unfold. I did help my Lockjaw by ripping some of the weaponry off the other and using that to annihilate other machines. That moment alone is one of the best moments this year in gaming for me...
