exquisite tea posted:When all this is over, we should do an analysis to see whose Top 10 list best mirrored the trendline of the Games forum at large and have them win a special award. Already got you covered  This is turning into an absolute nailbiter! Every game we've got left would be a worthy winner of our poll but there's only room at the top for one! Time to remove another variable from the equation as we take a look at your #6. Senerio posted:What can I say about this game that people haven't said millions of times? Fritz Coldcockin posted:The amazing thing about this game is the sheer number of things it does well. plz dont pull out posted:Loved a lot of the angles they took in the story. adhuin posted:Not at all a quick cash-grab Jerusalem posted:An absolute labor of love from true fans JBP posted:I got the plat on this game in record time.  6. MARVEL'S SPIDER-MAN (INSOMNIAC) 65 points, listed 10 times, #1 spot 1 time It just misses out on a space in your top 5 but it's still a fantastic result for Marvel's Spider-Man, a game which bodes well for the future of the heavily rumoured Marvel Gaming Universe. All of which leaves us with your top 5. You better get yourselves right, friends, because we're about to get started!

I noticed that Hitman was not in the also-ran list, there must have been some people who only played the first one and voted for that. Did Hitman 2 absorb all those votes by containing all of Hitman 1

And so it's come down to this. We're here at your top 5 and I think it's time we stopped beating around the bush. Celeste. Yakuza 0. Hitman 2. Return of the Obra Dinn. Monster Hunter World. One of these games is going to be your #1. But which it will be is not something we can answer just yet. Not when we've still got your #5 to go...Penguin Patrol posted:The most surprising game I've ever played. Electronico6 posted:It's really corny, extremely melodramatic, often nonsensical. Songbearer posted:A wacky, carefree and frankly adorable series of misadventures. Heavy Metal posted:Manly tears and stoic epicness. luxury handset posted:Japanese absurdist nonsense. VideoGames posted:More underwear dancing men than often seen. Jerusalem posted:Watch softcore porn with a stranger so he doesn't feel weird. Escobarbarian posted:I wanted to win a chicken.  5. YAKUZA 0 (SEGA) 65 points, listed 9 times, #1 spot 2 times  BEST ACTION GAME ...I sincerely hope that some of you people are talking about video games.

As another one bites the dust that leaves us with just a few challengers left standing. Will Monster Hunter World use its AAA might to sweep everything aside? Will Celeste or Return of the Obra Dinn show that indie games can match anything AAA has to offer? Will Hitman 2 pull off the biggest underdog win in gaming history? We don't know just yet but we do know that one of these games is your #4...Help Im Alive posted:The whole thing is incredible. Accordion Man posted:I still have barely breached the surface of finding everything to do. Ms Adequate posted:The amount of content is absurd. In Training posted:I’m looking forward to another year of support. DMCrimson posted:The right mix of satire and humor. DalaranJ posted:A delightful toybox of mayhem. StrixNebulosa posted:It's the stealth puzzlebox of my dreams. Relax or DIE posted:It’s also fun when you gently caress up royally and the entire things melts down around you.  4. HITMAN 2 (EIDOS) 76 points, listed 10 times, #1 spot 1 times BEST STEALTH GAME Amazing! One of 2018's most overlooked games has been embraced and loved by you and you've pushed it all the way to a huge fourth place finish! What a result!

This is what goon polls are for. Didn’t realise Obra Dinn would be so high. I’ve been waiting for it to come out on a console but may have to grab it sooner.

We're so close now, friends. There's only three games left in it. Celeste. Monster Hunter World. Return of the Obra Dinn. For one of these games glory awaits while the other two are fated for the runners up spots. Which games will fall out of contention and which one will take the prize? It's time to see what you voted for at #3.Samuringa posted:The game might as well already be considered a masterpiece of the genre Regy Rusty posted:I’d say I want more but I don’t know how this feat could be repeated! MMF Freeway posted:Best Styyyyle. sirtommygunn posted:It's a unique game with nearly perfect execution. AFancyQuestionMark posted:An incredibly unique gameplay style that I haven't seen anywhere else dreamless posted:When he showed his early tech experiments I was like, "what kind of game can you make with this?" DalaranJ posted:Finally a game where you can play as an insurance adjuster. StrixNebulosa posted:This game needs a million sequels where the heroine goes around with her magic pocketwatch and investigates crime.  3. RETURN OF THE OBRA DINN (LUCAS POPE) 94 points, listed 12 times, #1 spot 3 times Papers, Please might have highlighted Lucas Pope as someone to watch but it was Return of the Obra Dinn that established him as one of the premiere autours in the industry and you voted it your #3 game of 2018. Which means there's only two games to go...

Well would you look at that, friends, we finally made it. We're about to find out which game won your accolades as Something Awful's Game of the Year for 2018 and I'll tell you now, there was only five points in it. Monster Hunter World. Celeste. After all the cheers and the tears it's all come down to this. Here's what you voted in at #2.Anora posted:Not much more to say then what everyone else has. Regy Rusty posted:This game blew me away. VideoGames posted:A sublime game. Overwatch Porn posted:A masterwork of the genre. BabyRyoga posted:Another indie killer. DuffMayhem posted:Pure platforming nirvana. BeanpolePeckerwood posted:Incredible music, emotional journey. DMCrimson posted:Surprisingly heartwarming story A Lobster posted:The story really hit extremely close to home sirtommygunn posted:It may just make me break a controller for the first time in over a decade. I love it.  2. CELESTE (MATT MAKES GAMES) 117 points, listed 18 times, #1 spot 1 time BEST INDIE GAME BEST PLATFORMER MOST LISTED There it is! Despite being the game most often found on your lists Celeste has to settle for the silver medal position. Which means we know what's taken your top spot but let's first take a moment to appreciate the gorgeous artistry of the finest indie game of the year.

Thanks for the thread, I enjoyed it. Given that I don't even own a console, so my picks were limited to PC, I'm surprised I had as many in the top 30 as I did. I'm sure Path of Exile would have done better except that all the basement nerds that spend way too much time playing it never leave the PoE thread so never saw this one.

We're about to take a look at your #1 game for 2018 but before we do there's a few other awards that we need to give out. First up is the developer prize for Most Games Listed which goes to Nintendo for 11 different entries across your lists. Next is the title of Best Developer for the developer that scored the most points across all of its games. And this award goes to Capcom! They really are back! There's also a couple of goon awards that we need to hand out. The first award is 2018's Sharpest Nostradamus which goes to the goon that came closest to picking out your final top 10. And this title goes to... MMF Freeway! Would you believe they picked six out of ten games including all of the final four? And conversely we also have to recognise 2018's Biggest Hipster for the goon who's list ignored the most of this year's beloved games. And that award goes to... Rarity! Wait, what? That can't be right. Anyway, let's put the preamble to bed and celebrate Something Awful's Game of the Year for 2018! Regy Rusty posted:Completely engrossing BabyRyoga posted:I can appreciate how it has brought the series to a wider audience BeanpolePeckerwood posted:All my friends got it and loved it. Relax or DIE posted:It’s the entry that finally drew my friends in Electronico6 posted:It has consumed almost all of my game time. Penguin Patrol posted:I will end up sinking 500 hours into this game. Songbearer posted:This game ate my goddamn life. Darke GBF posted:I will pay full price, I don't care, just PUT MORE CONTENT IN. MMF Freeway posted:Had I known then what I know now I wouldn't have waited. I couldn't have. StrixNebulosa posted:It'll be here, waiting for me. plz dont pull out posted:Give me a minigame where I can play as the chef cat and run a kitchen. Jerusalem posted:Before you know it you and your best friend cat are windsurfing pterodactyls onto the back of a giant lava monster while stopping to steal eggs from pissed off dragon-birds for a different cat (with muscles) so you can have a bitching high-protein meal to aid in your tracking down a lightning horse and hoping an inflatable albino bat doesn't show up and ruin your cool Halloween costume your buddy made you after you beat up a giant scorpion that kicked the poo poo out of a sentient rock.  1. MONSTER HUNTER WORLD (CAPCOM) 122 points, listed 14 times, #1 spot 5 times BEST AAA GAME BEST RPG MOST #1 SPOTS After years of being viewed as niche series Monster Hunter World exploded into the mainstream this year and you voted it as your #1 game of 2018! Thanks for playing, everyone! I hope you enjoyed this and I look forward to seeing you all back here next year. For now let's hear it for MHW all go hunt down some space dinosaurs so that we can look fly in our uranium sunglasses or whatever.

This game did not make my top ten but I respect the democratic outcome. Also the game brought Geralt and Aloy together in the same universe so it owns (Handler for Smash)

My distaste for “its hard therefore it’s good automatically” games is pretty well-documented in some threads, but Celeste seems like that whole element ties in really well with the story and its themes. I’ll get it sooner rather than later.
