Analyzing the Games of the Year

GOTYwinnersLounge2014Last week we finished counting all the votes for the Games of the Year and announced the winners.  This week the arguing part begins. Just kidding, well, sort of. Not to take anything away from our new sister show, Argue the Toss, but the Games of the Year contest always ends up having a little bit of controversy. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be as fun!

As with previous years, we let the GiN Readers choose their champions, and 100,000 of you were up for that challenge. So, did the best games actually win? Our editors weigh in on the Games of the Year winners this week.

John Breeden II
John has spent his journalism career covering just about everything, from small-town meetings and crime scenes to Capitol Hill and the U.S. Congress. He got his start writing about games and technology with a computer column called On the Chip Side, which grew to more than 1 million in circulation and ran in newspapers across several states. Today, John is an award-winning journalist with more than 25 years of experience. His work has appeared in The Washington Post, Newsweek and many other publications, and he writes a regular technology and government column for Nextgov/FCW and hosts security and educational webinars for FedInsider. He is also the founder of the Tech Writers Bureau and the chief editor of GameIndustry.com. He still loves disappearing into games, whether that means crawling through Baldur’s Gate dungeons deep into the night or planning one more big offensive in the latest wargame.
