FUCK. YES.
11 hours, that's the longest bunch of deliberation podcasts yet.
Hot diggity dog.
I'm just quoting these all so I can express how awful that was.
auuuuugggghhhh god oh my god.
aughghhhghhhhguhhghhh why.
The '12 discussions went a bit too smoothly for my taste, so I'm hoping for the return of Filibradster. Would be so cool if he managed to get Brothers into the top 10 somehow (not the best indie title this year, but hey, I'd take it).

The argument for Brothers as game of the year must be day 3, I bet it was a quick nope.
Well, the shortest GOTYcasts were usually the ones with the joke categories, so I fully expect something like 'Most Fraternal Game' now. (1. Brothers 2. Two Brothers 3. DmC?)

Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel certainly had a lot of bros in it.
The Bioware thing I was referring to was in 2011 I think. It was runner up for the "Chiggity check yourself before you wreck yourself" award for things that need to take a break before they become a worst trend. Soon after that, we had the whole ending of Mass Effect 3 debacle, Star Wars: The Old Republic losing a ton of money, and that "Bioware" Command and Conquer game being canceled.
Oh yeah, Bioware totally wrecked themselves. I've sworn off EA games, but Inquisition looks promising. Maybe they can rise again like a phoenix?
I kinda find it crazy there are honestly people that think SR3 was remarkable in any significant way, let alone better than Skyrim. Good on Brad for sticking to his guns and Ryan coming to his senses.
Yeah, the fact that FTL and Hotline Miami didn't make it into the top 10 last year but somehow Mass Effect 3 did irked me.

I'm rubbing my hands together with glee after reading that.
You're missing the point, your opinion of the games is irrelevant. SR3 was the GOTY for Ryan, Jeff and Vinny.

To be fair, SWTOR reinvented itself as a very successful F2P title.That game is doing well ever since their transition.
Sure, but Skyrim was the GOTY for Ryan, Brad and Patrick.

Ryan's turn to Skyrim was frustrating because he seemed like he was just going for what is acceptable as Game of the Year by choosing a game he barely played.

Ryan's turn only happened after Brad had made it clear he wasn't going to shut up until everyone agreed to give it to Skyrim.
Also, godfuckit now I'm reminded of that whole thing again.They need to give Saints Row IV GOTY this year, using the Return of the King excuse Brad used to justify putting Mass Effect as his #1. Then all is well.
And the worst thing is that Brad's filibustering was nowhere to be seen when it was time to give the GOTY to Red Dead.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
My ears are ready !
I had more fun with Saints Row 4 than anything else this year. Bring it on!
I am actually curious if something like Gone Home has a shot with Patrick there to push it. I know Brad also liked it a lot.

Did anyone ever make a gif of that ending? Still might be the best ending to a giantbomb video.

Gone Home might have a fair shot since Patrick is in the room, but I imagine it'll butt heads with The Stanley Parable. Might end up splitting the vote & both get locked out of the top ten.

As the premier Giant Bomb GOTY-oncologist, it is amusing to see people hope or think that games like Gone Home, Papers Please, or Dota 2, MIGHT be GOTY. Ha!

Gone Home doesn't have enough "game" to it for it to have a chance.

He turned way before that. It was nearer to the beginning of that argument than before.

I'm looking forward to this next week.
Part of the reason I look forward to going to work during the winter break period is that I get to spend a large chunk of the day listening to the discussion.
Looks like another crazy simulator is out on steam. This time is is Airport Simulator 2014. I went ahead and sent a tweet to Vinny and the guys hoping to get a QL of it at some point.
Also really excited for the GotY stuff but a little sad that The Last of Us will probably not get the credit it deserves with Jeff not playing it. Also looking forward to hearing an argument over where DOTA should.

Don't forget Woodcutting Simulator 2014 that just came out too.

I kinda felt like ME3 deserved to be on the list somewhere last year, but ZombiU? Syndicate? How those two got on the list and FTL and Hotline Miami didn't was crazy. I hope those two are frontrunners for 2012's 2011 GOTY, though.

I have a love hate relationship with these podcasts. I love them because its a TON of content. I hate them because they are going to spoil games I still want to play. So I end up either spoiling stuff for myself or not being able to listen to a podcast I really enjoy
I think people were talking about them being top ten, no chance of them winning.

Why must you guy bring up Skyrim vs Saints Row 3 again? It still hurts. A game that is still unplayable on one platform and really the definition of quantity over quality was their GOTY only because Ryan didn't want to be embarrassed by picking the game with dildos in it.
I can only imagine what this year's list will be if Jeff said he wouldn't buy every game on their top ten. It seems like some crazy deal must have happened for Jeff to have let something he presumably dislikes on the list.

Skyrim and Mass Effect 3 being in the top 10 was what made me stop caring about GB's goty beyond personal lists.
Brad ruins them completely. There's no nicer way of me saying it when there's no point if he gets his way so frequently just because they don't want to deal with it.

I would seriously keep my premium membership if they just had Vinny play each of the dumb simulator games that come out. That stuff is always comedy gold.
Jeff did play it, and had the same opinion of it I do. It is not fun to play.
Personally I would go as far as saying I actively disliked playing it.
Both deserved to be in there.
ND needs to step up their game in terms of combat encounter and pacing. Everything else is sublime...

He dislikes TLOU, and I'm sure that's on the short list. Brad and VInny seem to have really liked it.
Skyrim only won because Ryan changed his opinion at the last minute.
