especially with all the graphics discussion this year, i wanted a category to put HFW in. I was gonna vote it for best visual style, but Elden Ring had the more striking memorable environments

Hmm well they did do a thread with suggestions for categories and that just wasn't one that kept coming up. Maybe people thought it would be there without suggesting it? This is a new thing that will be built on in the future using feedbackExactly the same for me too. Wanted to put HFW for best graphics and didn't see best graphics category at all. Went through the list thrice just to make sure I wasn't missing it.
cormack12 why my man?
Yeah I really liked the list format too. I'm very interested in not just no.1-3 but what say, gaf's 8th favourite game is, since I'm likely to know all about the top 3 but 8 might be a game I feel I need to take a look at after seeing so many people mention it. This is trying out a new thing to build on it so see how it goes
I'm still gonna post a top 10 anyways once I figure out my list

I want to nominate a few games I really liked that may or may not have been mentioned, I'm not reading all 5 pages.
I really enjoyed Tunic, thought it was great.
The Entropy Centre was an excellent puzzle game and one of my favorites of the year of any genre.
My most disappointing game of the year was Valkyrie Elysium. Just a bland game that felt like a cheap budget title from a no name developer.

Sorry if this has already been mentioned, but I kinda think High on Life should be included. Just finished it last night, great game!

I didn't see Shadowman Remastered as an option for remake/remaster of the year. I know it released on PC in 2021, but it didn't hit consoles until this year. It was the only remaster I played this year, haha.
EDIT: Sorry. I'm blind today. Got it.

Now that I’m a non gamer I’d feel bad if I’d vote in one of those things, but certainly Elden Ring have had my attention this year.

Just turn the brightness down a bit. Dark mode is depression in a web page

This post doesn't follow the format. I have voted in the form though in the correct manner.
GOTY: Splatoon 3
Runner Up: Horizon Forbidden West
Other notables: Gran Turismo 7, Bayonetta 3, TMNT Shedders Revenge, Circuit Superstars.
Splatoon 3 does not get the respect it deserves. It is so much fun to play, and it is packed with so much content.
Special shoutout to indie hidden gem racer Circuit Superstars.

Yeah, I've gone from wondering if Elden Ring will win GotY to wondering if Elden Ring will get voted all 3 Best Action Game, Best Adventure Game, and Best RPG? Since people can nominate it in whichever category they see fit
jshackles
Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
My final picks, this was a tough one!
An amazing year in gaming, where a lot of these categories I really had to think about what deserved top spot. We really were spoiled for choice with some real great stuff.

After listening to the Tunic OST while doing some work, I had to change my vote for best OST.
Sorry, Xenoblade Chronicles 3 has nothing on this:

Y'all have good taste! They're all incredible tracks, but Tunic gets me into a groove like no other
