Check out the full list of the 2012 VGA winners, including Game of the Year.
"The US-based indie games developer Aleth Labs today announced with great joy and thrill that their retro-like comedic puzzle adventure "ELON, is coming to PC via Steam this year (2024)." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
"The Sherman Oaks-based (CA, the US) indie games publisher Joystick Ventures and Melbourne-based (Australia) indie games developer Effort Star, are today very happy and excited to announce that their psychedelic turn-based bullet hell roguelike "Enter the Chronosphere", is dropping its time-limited Steam demo on May 13th, 2024 (the demo is a part of Steam’s Endless Replayability event)." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Fabledom is a new city builder sim that's set in a storybook world full of princes and princesses, witches, giants and flying pigs.
Honestly this was a bullshit VGA to me. Why? Because Far Cry 3 was a serious GOTY contender, and not talking about many other awards, but the game is not there.
Yet AC3 was there, and it was released like, 1 week earlier?
Anyways, if FC3 was there, it wouldve been different. This game deserves more attention.
Oh yeah, and Walking Dead only won GOTY because of the actual series and popularity. At least im glad they took COD out from many awards.
I can't believe Walking Dead won, it's good but it's kind of overrated in my opinion (I said Opinion), I would of liked to see Dishourned win or even Journey, hell if Borderlands 2 or Far Cry 3 was nominated I would of wanted them to win aswell. Now thats it won I doubt we'll see TT games move on from point and click games
Oh and Arkane or Gearbox should of won Studio of the Year they deserved it.
EDIT
Actually...by the way where the HELL was that game "Old School Gamers" would enjoy that Geoff talked about

Pretty disapointing only 3 new games were announced...worst VGAs ever.
Journey should have won but it was a popularity contest where the tv show fans of walking dead bombarded the vga voting.
Cause let me get this straight Journey wins best downloadable game where TWD is also nominated but TWD wins goty.
Kind of a very quiet night for the game reveals. Yet another hint that Next gen systems are being revealed this June.
Anyway, IDK about that GOTY award. I think there were a lot of bigger games who probably should have taken it.
I just wanted Gravity Rush to win best handheld... Oh well, it did get nominated at least.
Glad P4:A won the award for best fighting game! That studio is good!
