Most Pleasant Surprise
The nominees are:
Asura’s Wrath
Mark of the Ninja
Sleeping Dogs
Spec Ops: The Line
The Walking Dead
And The Winner Is…
The Walking Dead
In January 2012 laughter would fill the room when someone said “a licensed game will be a serious contender for Game of the Year when all is said and done.” Thanks to the surprisingly excellent Walking Dead, that laughter seems shortsighted.
