The GNamer Forum Annual Awards 2015

Voter fatigue? We haven't had that many voting threads, have we? Just mine and this one - before that, I think it was the Iwata thread, ages ago! (Or so it seems to me...)

There was also the classics to console thing, people have been chatting games of the year and we all live in a society where we are regularly pressured to care about elections only for it to be revealed that our democracy is a sham.

I don't think the number of voting threads is the issue but more how a lot of time has to be put in to get your thoughts in order and then type it up.

I'll hopefully have mine sent out this weekend.

Yeah, pretty much this! I'd been typing up my forum awards vote for half an hour yesterday and wasn't even half way done. I like a vote - it just takes me a while to get my vote together.

Posting to remind myself to vote later

And to remind me apparently... Oops!

Yes, guys, please vote! I'm going to give an extension on the voting period - you can now get your votes to me until 6pm on Monday 18th January.

Sent mine today.

Was waiting to get onto a desktop as using a tablet is too awkward when doing longer posts.

I would love to take part! Where do I send the results to?

You should send a PM to myself! For whatever reason, PM's are called MP's here.

Oh ok cool! No problem! Will get around to that soon!

So you're going to read up on all of 2015's posts? Good man!

He doesn't need to - he can just look through my post history.

I've read quite a number of posts actually! I wanted to get acquainted with how things work here!

([ spoiler] might be better for that sort of thing! Not sure what [ hide] does here...)

We'll bring you down to our level Darren, don't worry.

I don't think it's possible

Glad you have given an extension on this as I just haven't had the time due to not feeling too good lately.

Sir, I hope you get well soon!

What there's loads

Good to see Darren taking part and get stuck right into GNamer

Unless I completely misunderstood the category, because I took it to mean exclusive games (so Little Big Planet 3 would count, but MGSV wouldn't). It did occur to me that it could just mean any game that /isn't/ available on Nintendo, but then that's basically the same as the multiplatform award.

I took it same as you OR and I played 20ish games and there was ones I didn't play as well.

Owning a PS4 only, not an XBONE, and having not played Bloodbourne, Until Dawn or The Order, I was struggling to have much of a choice, especially given Vita's lack of exclusives last year!

I think there are still a reasonable number of downloadable exclusives. I think the biggest issue is where do we stand on console exclusives there? I'd count them, but I'm not one for acknowledging PC gaming.
