Over the past few weeks, many threads were created, many games were nominated, and we now have the official MyGaming Community Game Of The Year Winners!! Thank you to everyone for nominating and voting in this initiative.
We start off with the winners of each category.
MyGaming Best Action/Adventure Game:
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
The Nintendo Switch's launch title was always going to be a GOTY contender. From the get-go, this game made the Switch a must-have item. The game is full of adventuring and action, making it the deserving winner of this category
MyGaming Best Shooter Game
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus
Nazi-killing has never been this good. The new Wolfenstein is crowned the best shooter of the year, beating out the competition by only the smallest of margins.
MyGaming Best Multiplayer Game
PlayerUnknown's Battleground
The biggest multiplayer phenomenon in recent memory takes the top multiplayer honour. It came out of nowhere, gain incredible traction very quickly, and became the first game to dethrone the likes of CS:GO and DOTA for the most played multiplayer crown.
MyGaming Best RPG
Divinity: Original Sin II
The PC exclusive isometric RPG harkens back to earlier days and earlier RPGs, and people loved it. It is the winner of the RPG category. Everyone comes away from the game with something else, different stories and different adventures, something a good RPG has to do
MyGaming Best Strategy Game
XCOM 2: War of The Chosen
The expansion pack to the much beloved XCOM 2 wins the hearts and strategic mind of the community and comes in first for this category. It takes a lot for an expansion to win, but War of The Chosen added enough to the base game to feel like a standalone title.
MyGaming Best Racing Game
Forza Motorsport 7
The annual Forza title races ahead to beat the pack in a year which saw many very good racing games come out. Its stunning visuals and an insane amount of cars make it perfect for any petrolhead or bedroom racer.
MyGaming Best Sports Game
Everybody's Golf
The quality every game must have is being fun, and Everybody's Golf has this in spades (or clubs even). The quirky little title steals the crown in this highly competitive category.
MyGaming Best Fighting Game
Nidhogg 2
This unique fighting game KO's the competition and with its retro style graphics and interesting and fun mechanics.
MyGaming Best Indie Game
Cuphead
This brutal, highly stylized platformer has been a show stopper title since it was first revealed. With incredible 1920's style cartoon graphics and insanely difficult gameplay, it easily won as the best indie game of the year.
MyGaming Best Game Story or Narrative
Prey
It looks like singleplayer, narrative games are not dead after all, and Prey is the shining beacon leading the way. It's dark undertone of mystery and exploration made for a fine experience and a tremendous story
MyGaming Biggest Disappointment of the Year
EA
Ea really did a number of the gaming industry this year. Buggy, broken games filled with microtransactions and pay-to-win mechanics, closing beloved studios, blatant disregard for the community and abusing franchised just to make money, they dissapointed more than just our community this year
And now, the MyGaming Game Of The Year 2017 is...
Divinity: Original Sin II
This RPG masterpiece was not only the best reviewed PC game of 2017, it wins the MyGaming GOTY as well!!
