Well deserved RE 2 considering they showed 20 min of gameplay to the public and it's out in January.

E3 2018: Game Critics Awards Winners
- Thread starter Kenzodielocke
- Start date
Yes, they weren't playable, so they were only eligible for commendations.
They won two commendations, one for graphics, and one for innovation.
Three of Sony's awards were also commendations. Two were for graphics (TLOU 2 and Ghost of Tsushima) and one was for sound design (TLOU 2).
Right, and Anthem is a great example of this.
Action makes a lot of sense, since most of the open world seems to be about shooting things in a shooter like fashion, which was what the demo largely focused on to boot.
However, obviously it's also an RPG statistically speaking, and BioWare purports the town elements make it much more so as well.
Then of course, if there are more action/adventure elements they didn't show in the demo, it could arguably go there instead, but based on what was shown, Action made the most sense to me as well.
REmake2 deserved it.
I'll definitely excuse DMC5 not getting any shine, since it wasn't actually playable.

How is Spider Man an Action/Adventure game while Anthem is an Action game? Presumably Anthem will be the one that leans way more into RPG elements (loot/leveling system, dialogue trees, class system, etc). Maybe it's just a matter of what category each game submits itself for.
RE2 did look great, and I love me a good remake, but I'm not quite sure how to feel about a remake winning Best In Show. In fairness, the critics have had time with these games that I haven't, but it does strike me as odd.
Ahhh... I didn't see the rules section. Thx
That's ok spiderman is #1 in my heart. Plus your game is likely going to crush RE2 in sales so you have that too lol. Not hating on RE2 as I'm getting that as well it's just not spiderman.
I still do not really get the idea of commendations.
First require hands on playability.
Then not doing that för graphics and sound, but still count winning those categories as high as the hands on categories...
Edit: Have checked the history of commendations
Only Rage 2010 won both ordinary award and a commendation. Often there have been no winners of these special prices, suddenly this year there are five!

Deserved win for the best game shown at E3! Resident Evil 2 is going to be the best RE game since RE4. I cannot wait.
Pretty sure that was just console warrior crap. Sony showed some impressive games
Resi 2 deserves it. Now that's how you execute a remake.
Happy for Dreams getting some recognition too. Winning best original game bodes well for the final product.

It's more of a reimagining than remake. They build totally new game from nothing. It looks amazing from all of the gameplay videos. It totally deserves be game of the E3 imo.
This made me look up the Xbox Adaptive Controller. That's one of the coolest things I've seen in a while.
It's a genre instead of an independent game at this point.

Folks place too much emphasis on the pressers. The two best games Sony had (Dreams/Astrobots) weren't at the pressers except as animated interludes.
Console warrior nonsense. They had a fantastic lineup of games at E3, arguably the best.
The problem is that for those watching from home, it was overshadowed with their mindbogglingly terrible presentation. It was so awkward and poorly thought out, that it honestly took a lot of the wind out of the conference.
The king of a category including... itself and The Crew 2? Sonic Team Racing perhaps?
What the fuck has happened to the racing genre.
User Banned (3 Days): Accusing journalists of being bribed for E3 nominations.
Those awards are complete trash. I agree that RE2 it's the best but everything else it's money out front from the publisher's.

َAs I said in the other thread:
TLoU Part II is probably going to eat the next E3.
TLoU Part II is probably going to eat the next E3.
They didn't have a terrible E3, they just had a horrendously ill-conceived presser that seemed dead-set to sabotage the excellent line-up of games that featured during it.
- Don't prioritise the audience attending over the millions watching via internet.
- Don't include stage gimmicks.
- Don't have musical performances.
- Don't have a running time of 50 minutes (seriously, all the games announced in the days prior could've easily been at that conference).
- And most important of all, don't ever EVER have Sid Shuman appear at any point.
I think this made me most happy, more things like this please!
More inclusivity is a good thing.
amazing how much shit they got simply for the structure of their press conference. that was the focus instead of the games they showed, which all looked incredible.
including game of the show resident evil 2 remake
