As much as I was personally rooting for either RE4R or Mario Wonder to take home GOTY this year, Baldur's Gate 3's win is one million percent deserved and I'm over the moon for Larian
also PIKMIN 4 WON BEST STRATEGY GAME YEAHHHHHHHHH
So happy BG3 won GOTY as its incredible and i'm very happy Alan Wake 2 won a few awards as well.
I'm just happy that Pikmin 4 won an award.
Very, very happy to see BG3 take the GotY Award. I was saying prior to it's full release that it would win, (I pre-ordered the Early Access version of the game on the PC, so have been playing the game for years) and it is good to be proven correct. The game is a masterpiece. Truly something special, and I am absolutely chuffed that Larian took home the title.
Now, as I stayed up to watch the entire show and it has just gone 4 a.m, it's time for bed...!🤪
So happy to see Alan Wake win so many awards and to see Sam Lake dancing for Herald of Darkness. Well earned for BG3 too, even if I was team Alan Wake. I was actually pleasantly surprised that I agreed with many of the winning choices. Glad to see FF16 win for soundtrack.
This year had been an amazing year for games in general. Regardless of which game won, I think we had plenty for 2023. I'm just happy that there's a lot of great games for everyone to choose from for this year
Downloaded “The Finals”
The few seconds I played seemed fun but the servers kept crashing.
Very interested in more info on Light No Fire 🔥
Kinda wish RE4 Remake won an award but I totally understand why Baldur's Gate 3 and Allen Wake 2 won so many awards.
Nice to see Tchia got an award. I had so much fun with that game
Another huge winner, in a category that wasn’t actually a category, was the woodwind player during that Game of the Year live orchestral medley. That guy was KILLING IT!!! Last time a woodwind instrument was played with that much swagger was the saxophone player in “The Lost Boys”.
I think the real odd one out here is best multiplayer game to BG3. I think it reveals the weakness of this year and of gaming the past few years- we aren't getting very good AAA multiplayer experiences like used to be commonplace. Battlefield and COD used to compete for the plaudits, and games like Gears, StarCraft 2, and Overwatch were really nice. We even got great multiplayer in single player games like Uncharted, the Last of Us, Resistance.
Soooo glad spiderman didn't win anything 👍👍
Sony and mk1 won nothing
I was happy to see Alan Wake 2 get some awards. The game is definitely a trip.
Glad BG3 won, I don't even like it THAT much but it clearly deserved it regardless and BG3 winning also means that Alan Walk 2 didn't win. Which is a huge win in my book
Dang, Spiderman 2 got snubbed.
Removed - trolling/baiting
@zhoont - To be fair, I feel like Street Fighter 6 had a solid case for winning it, but yeah, looking at the nominees, it ain’t a great list, especially if you take those two out.
@Ichiban Oh please. You moan about people accusing you of being an Xbox fanboy and then put a ridiculously childish comment like that? Really?
@Ichiban Well they did release 5 games to Sony's 1 😂 and TLOU tv show won an award, Atleast Sony had a nomination for the top award, no ones going to remember best sound design and best sport game come this time next year.
Ah yess Belgium on top this time! Great work Larian studios! Nice to see Remedy winning a lot of awards too!
Hogwarts deserved a win.
Sea of stars 🤙🤙🤙
Well deserved!

As a developer and publisher you are partly right, though TLOU picked up best adaptation. (edit)
But as a platform holder PlayStation and their players won big, they have the most number of winners available to play on their platform, only 5 aren't available, and the biggest winner Baldurs Gate 3 was a console exclusive for 3 months, until tonight.
Compare that to Xbox where 7 games aren't available, Switch has 12.
TLDR: Forget companies, PlayStation PLAYERS win.
I guess everyone expected the Goty to go to BG3.
What pleasantly surprised me is that Alan Wake 2 got so many awards, well deserved tbh.
@themightyant how was Bg3 a console exclusive? It was on PC three years prior.
Edit - i realized you probably ment PS5 exclusive in relation to xbox, nvm.
They gave 2 awards to crappy Forza and nothing to Spider Man 2. It's clear who showed up with the money this year.
@UltimateOtaku91 May have a point there. Can't for the life of me remember what won best racing/sports game last year. Must have been extremely forgettable.
Removed - flaming/arguing; user is banned
@OM1993 Probably Fifa or some racing game, if a decent racing game comes out that year then they pretty much guaranteed to win it, as not many great sports games come out every year apart from the usual yearly rehashed crap.
@themightyant As the saying goes, playstation is "for the players".
@OM1993 I ain't. It's just crappy gamepass fodder anyway. SM2 didn't win anything because it couldn't in the categories it was nominated to be honest.
@Sil_Am does that mean Sony showed up with the money all the previous years?
@PixelDragon You haven't watched any unbiased reviews then.
It's a downgrade in every possible way from previous Forzas.
One of many:

@PixelDragon No, all reviews I've seen are like this. The only mildly positive is from Super GT.
No PS Studios game awarded? Strange world
Seriously what a disappointment.
Worst game of the year ever in the history of gaming.
Removed - unconstructive
@daveofduncan
"Sea of stars 🤙🤙🤙
Well deserved! "
I agree! Frankly is was a true Indie game and really did deserve to win. Such a wonderful, wonderful game.
I hope this award helps more people to discover it.
Hopefully 2024 is a bigger year for PlayStation on the gaming side. Rise of the Ronin shaping up to be a good start to the year.
Those eSports nominations… less than 0.001% of gamers know who they are.
I am confused why Cyberpunk got best ongoing game. It had updates and an expansion but I don't consider that ongoing. Fortnight, FF14, No Mans Sky I would consider ongoing.
@UltimateOtaku91 That one went over your head, didn't it? 😅
@Sil_Am 🤣🤣🤣
@OM1993 Haha at first yeah but I now know you were taking a dig at GT7 as I think that won the award last year, though I would still have to agree with you as along with Uncharted and MLB, Gran Turismo is one PlayStation Exclusive I do not like.
So yeah GT is forgettable 😅
@themightyant BG3 wasn't a console exclusive, how can a game that came to pc first be a console exclusive?
@Deityjester “Console Exclusive” doesn’t mean what you think it means. It’s used in the industry to refer to a title that is exclusive to one console but disregards PC. E.g. Hi-Fi Rush is a console exclusive as it’s only on Xbox on console, despite the fact it’s also on PC.
I get it’s confusing, and perhaps non-sensical, but that is the terminology they use.
Fortnite should have won Best Ongoing Game.
Fixing a game that was absolutely broken at launch does not make a game ‘ongoing’ (Cyberpunk).
@Sil_Am Who besides Forza would win best sports/racing game? And whoever did better than literally enabling blind players to play their games, Forza went to the extreme of accessibility, yes, the game was released unfinished, but these are aspects where he did well, the only ones, but they exist.
