The Pixels and Ink gang gathered around the virtual campfire this week to discuss the highlights and snubs of this year’s Game Awards. They agreed that this year’s line-up was solid, with many titles well worth playing. Touching on what made last year’s winner Elden Ring such a dark horse entry, they delve into all the titles on this year’s shortlist, including Resident Evil 4 Remake, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, Balder’s Gate 3, Alan Wake 2, Super Mario Bros. Wonder and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
While it’s hard to say who will walk away with this year’s big prize, the crew dives into the arguments for each option and why they’re worth your time. From everyone thinking that Resident Evil 4 Remake was an odd inclusion to the fact that Balder’s Gate 3 has a strong case to walk away with some major accolades, this is shaping up to be an exciting night in gaming. As if that were not enough, Jordan and Brendan delve into the sad state of the Silent Hill franchise and the hopes that the Silent Hill 2 Remake can revive the legendary horror franchise.
