____________________________

Well, the year is half over! What is everyone's game of the half year?

____________________________

Uncharted?

Dark Souls 3?

Overwatch?

Street Fighter V?

____________________________

I have an idea of mine, but what would you, if you HAD TO pick a Game of the Year right now, choose? Again, I do this to keep games from the first half of the year in mind for the second half! Don't quite know of anything coming out for the remainder that's as big as what's already come, but you never know!

That's mainly what I purchased, from what I remember from the top of my head. What am I missing? What else would you consider GOTY worthy?

I think the clear winner for me is Uncharted 4.  It's almost two months old and it's still going strong.  I'm kind of embarrassed by the amount of hours I've put into it.

As a matter of fact, I was going to cut myself off TODAY!  I was going to put the disc up, put in Overwatch, and play Overwatch and Killzone exclusively.  But holy shit, Naughty released more dlc today!  How could I resist?  I really want to play other games, I really do. Naughty Dog's multiplayer marvel just has a strong grip on me.  My previous favorite multiplayer game was TLoU, but this easily surpasses it.

That's nothing to be embarassed by, that's something to savor! I've put close to 80 hours into Dark Souls 3 now. I've devoted untold hours to the Senran Kagura series. Played a ton of Uncharted and Overwatch. Lots of Street Fighter V for two months straight... I can't even imagine how much time I put into Garden Warfare 2...!

It's been a pretty frickin' --AWESOME-- year so far!!  Grinning

I'm the kind of guy that loves jumping from one game to another, but there's something to be said about really getting your money's worth and savoring a game.

From what I've heard, Zero Time Dilemma is also a serious contender, but since I haven't played it yet, I don't know if I would consider it or not!

I've been an abject failure this year. Aside from Pokken I don't think I've played a single game that was released this year.

I had to double-check. So far the PS4 version of Broforce is the only 2016 game I've played. I'm always playing catch-up.

Bro Force makes me want a Castle Crashers sequel.  That was awesome, co-op fun.

The Witness easily. I doubt anything will top it.

Its a toss up between Uncharted 4, Tomb Raider: The Rise of Lara, and FireWatch, and DOOM for me. Nothing has run away with the award.

I thought it was a great game, other than the end. Very memorable experience.
