Game Awards 2017: Tutti i Vincitori!

7817 0

Chi avrà vinto ai Game Awards 2017?

E anche quest’anno i Game Awards hanno dimostrato quanto i premi siano politici e nella maggioranza dei casi mossi dal denaro o da irrazionalità legate ai giudici.

Volete un esempio? Quando si parla di Nintendo, che con la scusa di essere la mamma di tutti i videogiocatori, è intoccabile e qualche posizione le va sempre regalata (Miglior Strategico Mario + Rabbids?), giusto per non essere “scortesi”. Oppure tutti quei premi su chi sia il miglior videogiocatore professionista (?!?!) o la migliore squadra negli e-sport o ancora il miglior gioco elettronico sportivo competitivo (?!?!?!!?!?!?).

Ma il premio più stupido dell’universo se lo merita: Best Chinese Videogame. Perché?
