Dishonored and Far Cry 3 well deserved, that's all i cared about as it's what i thought last year, Gabe is no surprise.

This year will be more difficult.

Journey was predictable imo, as the Baftas aren't particularly fake/fixed like most and have pretty genuine awards so we wouldn't see some crap like CoD $'d into the top spots but rather decent artistic/innovative games.

So what's that journey game all about?

Deserved recognition.

Dishonored gets best game...I am very happy.
Mass Effect 3 gets nothing- I am ecstatic!

I know people fawn over The Walking Dead, and it is not bad, but I thought the story was weak.

I think the reason is the way the story is presented rather than the story in itself.

I've played it and agree the story isn't anything spectacular, however its delivery is masterful.

I agree, the strength is in the interactiveness of the game, and how you can shape events and really get immersed. The actual story is nothing special at all, in fact there are quite a few games this year that I would say have better stories in them tbh.
