It's been a brilliant year for games with the likes of The Division, Uncharted 4 and Forza Horizon 3 taking our gaming pleasure to new heights. Even the unlikely Pokemon Go gets a look in on our top Games list but which should win?
You get to have your say in our Awards section but to help you decide our gaming experts Sam Pinney and Brett Phipps go Head-to-Head and debate which should title should be crowned Game of the Year.
SAM SAYS...
I’ve gone for Doom. It’s a remake of a classic game but they’ve made everything better. It’s scary, it’s terrifying, you’ll die a lot and it’s incredibly slick. You start playing and before you know it it’s three hours later.
Forza took too long to get to the fun bits, there’s too much in terms of intros and telling me how fun it was going to be without letting me play it but I need to give it a go because it’s such a beautiful game.
The Division is really tough — there are bits of it that are amazing but you spend a lot of the time shooting people who are in the middle of a crisis — nothing is explained, you're just a soldier who lands and you just start shooting people, so that’s what holds it back.
I probably put 100 hours into Pokemon Go — I’m over it now — but if you compare it to the amount of hours I played any other game, it was good value and I think it’s quite exciting for what it might reveal and also to part of a phenomenon, so it definitely belongs on the list.
