Mordor nominated lol that game looks like dog shit.
Why there are even awards for this is simply beyond me.
I'm just gonna go ahead and say it's pretty dumb that they're limiting awards only to games that were playable. They should change the criteria to games that actually showed game play footage over just a title or cg. Anthem should easily be on the list. We were shown a lot of game-play footage. Otherwise, I hope Odyssey wins it. Looked great.
Please note: To be eligible for nomination, games be available to voting publications for at least 5 minutes of hands-on time at E3. The following annnounced games were not made playable to Game Critics Awards voting publications at E3 and were therefore disqualified from award consideration:

Cuphead (Studio MDHR);
Gotta be playable for at least 5 mins.
I was about to riot too.
The handheld nominees are BS. Why is Odyssey not there too?
Is this panel of people now defining a console and it's role?
Shadow of War has the most nominations. What a world we live in.
Surprised by all the Assassin's Creed love. The rest is fine I guess..
Shows what a boring show it was this year.
Who the fuck saw this coming?Best of Show
- Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle (Ubisoft Paris/Ubisoft Milan/Ubisoft)
Best Original Game
- Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle (Ubisoft Paris/Ubisoft Milan/Ubisoft)
Best Console Game
- Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle (Ubisoft Paris/Ubisoft Milan/Ubisoft)
Would need public & downloadable demos for that.
Actually, I heard that there were in fact handheld SMO stations, but no one went there for some idd reason, since apparently there was hardly a line for those when there were hours long lines for the docked SMO.Were all the stations set up in console format? I guess that's a reason to say that you hadn't been able to play 'the handheld version'.

Question: Is 5min playable a new requirement?
I know playable has been a requirement for a while but 5mins?
A good thing. Too many premature announcements.
Best QTE nonsense?
Personally though Assassin's Creed looked pretty bad, so surprised to see that get nominated. Good to see Odyssey and Mario+Rabbids, those looked great.

If only the NeoGAF E3 awards nominations applied the same rules.

A lot of good games not entered, so this award has no meaning.
.Games had to be playable for at least 5 minutes by the voting publications for it to be eligible for awards.

Let's not get too worked up even if Shadow of War wins some of these. These awards lost all meaning the year Evolve landed a veritable clean sweep.Huber from EasyAllies is going to lose his shit. What he described from the demo he played was a complete clusterfuck. And what made it seem like he was telling the truth is that they had footage of the game rolling at the time he was giving his impressions and it matched what he was saying.
Stick a well known IP on the Guilty Gear engine and everyone goes apeshit.Dragon Ball Fighter Z should've been nominated for game of the show IMO
Nintendo doesn't seem to even want to count Switch as a handheld so they're pretty much respecting the maker's wishes on this one.Kind of strange they aren't counting switch as a handheld because it comes with a TV out dock in the box.
