Game of the Year on gamespy too. I think they awarded 10 different games the game of the year 2012 title :s
I can see best MMO, but I'll have to disagree with best PC game and best graphics. Best game, for me, would have to go to The Walking Dead. You play it once, and you see a very good game. You play it a second time, and you see an amazing game. Best graphics, form their limited list, I would say Far Cry 3, but from the games I have played this year, I'd have to say TSW.
Haha... as if an IGN award is worth anything... IGN could have shit in their hand and given it directly to Anet... it's pretty much the same.
Most likely the wisest Enhancement Shaman.
I get it why it got awarded for best graphics:
-) great artworks
-) huge visual range - you can see enemies and allies from a huge distance
-) pretty solid performance in large groups - if you have the right CPU
-) still nice graphics on low settings
-) detailed huge zones - no copy & paste

I can see that 74 different types isn't enough for everyone. Wait... I cannot.
Angry Joe weights in with his top 10 of 2012. Guess which game is number 1?
Joe is a clown but his original GW2 review is excellent.
Angry Joe is a nut but he likes a lot of the same games I do. I approve of his top 10 list.
Just you wait until you get to Orr man. After the Risen, you'll like centaurs a whole hell of a lot better.
I agree that the CPU thing is bullshit. GW2 is very CPU bound and that was a constant complaint back in beta and has never completely went away. That's still a major problem with the game. Same with culling, but it's usually only a major issue in WvW or in major zerg events in PvE (which you really don't run into many of any more).
I wouldn't be surprised if the CPU-bound issue and culling are tied together.
The walking dead is an excellent game but I dont understand how people can put it as GOTY.
Its story is excellent, moral choices heartbreaking and acting good. It's an overall unique experience. But the game lacks finition (animations), choices don't matter much in the story and overall it's more an interactive movie than a game (and it therefore kinda sucks that choices don't really matter).
Games like GW2 and FarCry 3 and BL2 are more serious candidates imo.
