Tonight is the Game Awards for 2023, so might as well open my annual YOUR GOTY thread today too. There's been some big games released this year, some real duds and some real corkers. 2023 has seen the releases of Hi-Fi Rush, Dead Space Remake, Hogwarts Legacy (that really came out this year?? Seems SO long ago) , Atomic Heart, Resident Evil 4 remake, The Last of Us, Darkest Dungeon 2, System Shock remake, Age of Wonders 4, Diablo 4, Aliens Dark Descent, Shadow Gambit, Remnant 2, Viewfinder, Ratchet and Clank, Baldurs Gate 3, Armored Core 6, Sea of Stars, Starfield, Payday 3, Lies of P, Assassins Creed Mirage, Cities 2, Alan Wake 2, Lords of the Fallen, Modern Warfare 3 and more. Surely something for everyone in there somewhere.
The rules are the same as every previous year and the same "Note" applies. For those who havent seen the previous yearly threads, here's the info again :

The rules are the same as every previous year and the same "Note" applies. For those who havent seen the previous yearly threads, here's the info again :
Please Note : The rules I use for this causes complaints whenever I do this, so I will state at the start here that these are the rules that I use myself when I am weighing up the years games to pick which game was my game of the year. Theres nothing to stop someone doing an alternative poll which doesnt use these rules, these are simply the rules that I use. As with previous years, if you feel that no PC game that you played this year is worthy of being your game of the year, it is allowed to say No Game/Nothing
Here are the rules :
#1 - Absolutely NO multiple game choices, ONE game, ONE game only...NO top 3's , no joint GOTY, no "honourable mentions" - ONE SINGLE GAME.
#2 - Must have been FULL released between Jan 1st 2023 and Dec 31st 2023 (which means that yes, a game which was in Early Access pre-2023 but got its FULL release this year, IS allowed)
#3 - No titles still in Early Access
#4 - No DLCs - must be a main game release
#5 - Must be a PC game
#6 - If you somehow felt that you went 12 months without playing anything decent, it is allowed to say that no game at all was your best game of the year. (though maybe make a New Year Resolution to find a more rewarding hobby 
)
