LATEST FEATURES Being A Console Is Actually Xbox One's Worst Asset
Microsoft's newest console has lots of different features, but video games might hold the device back from the software giant's true intentions.

Everything I Learned About Call of Duty: Ghosts Last Week
I wasn't allowed to talk about the new Infinity Ward game last week when I met with Activision, and I don't have much to say now that Xbox One spilled the beans.

GOTY Community Choice: FINAL FOUR - Tag Tournament

Posted on Friday, December 14 @ 16:45:00 Eastern by

In the final pairings of our semi-final round, The Walking Dead faced off against Mass Effect 3 while Sleeping Dogs fought with Guild Wars 2. Sleeping Dogs used it's environmental hazard combat to deal Guild Wars 2 and the Lion Guard a fatal blow. In fact, I think there are still chunks of Charr fur in that air conditioning fan over there. Guild Wars 2 left reeling with a 28-7 loss.

The real action in this rounds voting was between The Walking Dead and Mass Effect 3. Both narratively heavy games had their supporters and detractors. For much of the early voting, the two were neck and neck. Once again, the game that secured the forum votes also secured the win. In succession, used44, Gunner37, Bretimus_v2, WickedLiquid, Wes, and HK-47 voted The Walking Dead best brains this year, forcing Commander Shepard and company to pack it in.

Apparently, a two front war was too much for the Normandy crew. After this 24-14 defeat, Mass Effect 3 joins Guild Wars 2 and our other losers: X-COM: Enemy Unknown, Dishonored, Max Payne 3, Halo 4, Retro City Rampage, Persona 4: Golden, Ghost Recon: Future Soldier, Borderlands 2, Hotline Miami, and Civilization V: Gods & Kings. Our final four move on to do battle NOW!

Once again, only vote for one game in each match up below. Our finalists will face off on Monday, throughout rewards week, until a winner is crowned on Friday along with GameRevolution's Game of the Year.

    Seriously? An Assassin's Creed game gets to the final 4 and Halo doesn't? I haven't played any of these games but I know for a fact that Halo 4 rocks and i'm very surprised that AC3 gets to the end after it's mixed reception.

    You should include who voted for what so we can shun people and (semi-)publicly ridicule them!

    Hah, yeah, Sleeping Dogs and The Walking Dead is the only match-up so far that I've actually played both of the games, so the system does have its limitations.

    I feel like a 1-10 voting system (1 for your favourite, 10 for least favourite) would be more accurate than the tournament style. No fault of GR, tournament style is the most widely used, I just never seen the upside other than it lasts longer so people have to keep checking back to vote =P

    Even if this was spam, it'd be excellent because Journey is excellent.

    Journey is just too short, I feel there's more merit in making a great long lasting game than making a great but short one as there's just much less content and issues to worry about. With that being said my vote goes to : Assassin's Creed III
    Sleeping Dogs gets my other vote.

    Counterpoint: Journey is the perfect length for what it is, there's no feeling of padding or bloating to keep you playing longer. The game is exactly as long as it needed to be.

    Honestly, Walking Dead is a tad overrated after playing it.

    Vote: Walking Dead / AC3

    I think the Walking Dead may get it which would be kind of cool considering the way it was marketed in $5 chapters. A bunch of little chapters culminating in something great....wait can the GoTY cost less than $60...with no DLC?
