Well deserved! Nothing else comes close this year in my opinion.

(Also, how the hell did Cyberpunk wrack up 9 media outlet awards?!)

I'll never stop laughing at that one poster a few weeks back who was trying to argue that the game had a mixed reaction from critics.

I'm not sure if it's still there, but about a month ago Neil Druckmann's Wikipedia page mentioned that Last Of Us 2 received a mixed reception from critics... which is uh, probably less than accurate lol. One of their editors wasn't a fan I guess :)

How many awards left? Is taking The Witcher 3's record on the cards? I know the sites generally track less nowadays.

I'm still waiting for a PS5 version to play it. Can't wait. Wish Naughty Dog was more clear about their next gen version plans.

I always get confused when articles come out about stuff like this, how many websites are giving out GOTY awards? I only know like 4 of them =p

It's also metacritic's user winner by a landslide. I think the vocal minority - like a very small minority - just gave up lol. So funny to see the user score for the game then see the final tally.

Congrats to ND!

That very small vocal minority is currently being hunted by the FBI...

ND absolutely deserves all the praise. Just look at the final end game trophy numbers. Last I checked it was over 60%. For a game of this length, intensity, and graphic nature, that shows how gripping and engaging the gameplay and story are.

Well done to the developers at ND, and I am looking forward to the PS5 edition with Factions!

Well deserved, I would have thought it'd be a bit more critically divisive. It probably helped the critical reception that they wanted to set a counterpoint to the idiotic internet mob complaints.

Well deserved, it was my GOTY as well. If it wasn't already, this cements ND as a top 3-5 developer. If not just straight up the best right now.

Kinda crazy to think that Sony now has 2 franchise with multiple game of the year overall wins (and both from ND lol) and 6 winning years overall, and they definitely have a good chance this year if God of War Ragnarok (or Horizon Forbidden West if GG makes the sequel truly exceptional!) makes it.

The Last of Us Part II was just an incredible game, completely deserved.
