PC Gamer 2015 game of the year awards

[Craig234]

They've gotten a bit quirky, no longer the 'genre' categories, but still useful.

I've enjoyed getting PC game print magazines as long as they've been published, and PC Gamer is the last it seems except Gamestop's Game Informer for all platforms.

No more Computer Gaming World, PC Gaming, MMO magazines, PC Strategy+ (?), etc.

Best setting: Fallout 4

Most Original: Her Story

Community Champion (not sure what that means): Cities Skyline

Best Simulation: Kerbal Space Program

Spirit of the PC: Pillars of Eternity

Best Game Design: Invisible, Inc.

Best Singleplayer: Witcher 3

Best writing: 80 Days

Best game of 2013 (?): Grand Theft Auto V

Best Multi-payer: Rocket League

Game of the Year: Metal Gear Solid V

Runners up: D4, Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns, Homeworld Remastered, Life is Strange, Else Heart, break(), Heroes of the Storm, Cibelle, SOMA, Undertale, GALAK-Z

Editing correction: I thought the 'runners up' were for each award, but looking at again they're called 'personal picks' and I think just mean runner up for game of the year, so moved them.

GTA V is so good they had to create a special category just so they could include it. Nice to see all sense hasn't been lost at PC Gamer.

I dont think Fallout 4 had the best setting.
Maybe they need a category for "Best potential that was utterly wasted."


I do agree with Pillars of Eternity and Kerbal.

W00t for Kerbal!

I'm not a fan of multiplayer games, but Rocket League is incredibly good and addictive.

Nice to see you haven't lost your lack of objectiveness.

Glad to see Fallout 4 got some love.

The award listed two 'personal picks' on the same page with some of the awards, so I thought were runners up for the award, but looking at again, it looks like they were personal picks as one of the best games of the year and not about the award on the page they were on, so I edited the post.
