GOTY: Celebrating the Year’s Most Deserving Games
Hey there, fellow gamers! It’s that time of year again when we gather around to celebrate the crème de la crème of gaming. But here at VG247, we like to do things a little differently. Instead of just picking one Game of the Year (GOTY), we have one for each of our staff. Why? Because gaming is subjective, and we believe in celebrating all the deserving games that made our hearts race and our fingers twitch.
Now, I know some other websites might call this “cheating,” but as Tim Blake Nelson in Syriana would say, “cheating is how we win.” So deal with it, “other websites.”
Alan Wake 2: A Modern Horror Masterpiece
Let’s kick things off with our resident horror connoisseur, Kelsey Raynor. She’s here to give you an ode to Alan Wake 2. As a fan of Remedy’s work, Kelsey instantly fell in love with the game. But it wasn’t just her existing fandom that won her over. Alan Wake 2 proved to be a uniquely modern horror experience that pushed boundaries on both technical and artistic levels. It even managed to warp reality itself, adding a thematically fitting twist that left us in awe. No wonder it took home big wins at this year’s Game Awards.
If you want to see for yourself how Alan Wake 2 distinguishes itself in such a banner year, check out our first GOTY 2023 video below:
But wait, there’s more! We have a list video highlighting all the things Alan Wake 2 does better than every other horror game out there. And guess what? Tomorrow, we’ll be revealing what’s next in VG247’s Games of 2023 series. Trust me, there will be mad twists and turns along the way, a very special guest or two, and you’ll probably shout at us at least once. It’s going to be a wild ride, so make sure to tune in!
VG247’s Games of 2023 will be released here on VG247.com, our YouTube channel, and our Tiktok feed daily over the holiday season. Get ready for an epic showcase of the best games that rocked our world this year!
Conclusion: Embrace the Thrills of Gaming
As we wrap up another year of mind-blowing gaming experiences, let’s take a moment to appreciate the incredible journeys we’ve embarked on. From heart-pounding horrors to breathtaking adventures, gaming has the power to transport us to new worlds and challenge us in ways we never thought possible.
But just as in gaming, where challenges arise, so do threats. Cybersecurity is a constant battle, much like navigating treacherous dungeons or facing off against formidable foes. We must remain vigilant and protect ourselves from the lurking dangers of the digital realm.
So, fellow gamers, let’s continue to embrace the thrills and excitement that gaming brings. Let’s support each other, share our experiences, and celebrate the games that have touched our souls. Together, we can create a gaming community that is strong, resilient, and ready to face whatever challenges come our way.
Game on!
