Game of the Year 2019

[QualityChimp]

Category One - Game of the Year 2019
01 - Untitled Goose Game
02 - Arcade Classics Anniversary Collection
03 - Demon's Tilt

Only played 3 games released this year.
Arcade Classics is full of games decades old and WWZ is practically a L4D reskin that I played once for Kryss' 12 days thing. Demon's Tilt is pretty addictive, though.
UGG is lovely and the fact my son loves it makes me love it all the more.

Category Two - Worst Game of 2019
I didn't play enough games released this year to comment

Platform of the Year 2019
01 - PS4
02 - Switch
03 - XBone

Caned the PS4 the most, without fail.
I love the Game Pass, but let my sub slide as I wasn't using it.
Switch is turning into an emu device, which is great, and home to quirky titles like UGG and Touryst.

Most Anticipated Game of 2020
01 - Cyberpunk 2069
02 - Streets of Rage 4
03 - One Finger Death Punch 2 (console)

Biggest Predicted New Release Failure of 2020
Can't we just be positive, sometimes?

Best Game From 2018 That You Only Got Around to Playing in 2019
01 - Red Dead Redemption 2
02 - Astro Bot Rescue Mission
03 - Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker

Sorry if I've skewed your results, I'm just not the type of gamer who canes loads of new releases.
I'll normally pick up a bargain and rinse it for months.
Red Dead 2, Arkham Knight and PSVR have been my jam this year.

Nice list of games to watch out for in 2020, if you're looking for inspiration in that category:

Based on games I've actually played. I haven't really played that many terrible games this year, mostly because there's not enough time to play decent games as it is.

What's with all the negativity categories? Worst game, predicted failure? Seems overly cynical and grumpy.

Anyway, I thought 2019 was a cracking year for games. Bloodstained surprised the hell out of me and I loved it. Recently got into Tetris 99 and what a cracker that is.

Didn't knew about N1RV Ann-A or that it was a sequel to VA-11 HALL-A! When I googled it I thought you were talking about Minotaur.

And while googling for the name of the game I had in mind, I found out Westwood's Blade Runner was just re-released on GOG!

Honourable mention to Observation, that got knocked off by A Short Hike.

Luigi's Mansion 3.

Just a perfect little creation, typical Nintendo polish with dash's of brilliance sprinkled liberally.
