It's never been more irrelevant in the gaming industry. The constant pompous corporate pandering (GaaS and the AAA microtransaction green love-in) and the irrelevancy of 'the gamer/community vote' compared to the 'gaming journalist' vote (most prevalent in the 'Game of the Year' award, where Zelda Breath of the Wild got less than 15% of the 'gamer/community vote' yet still won the award), just shows that they have not learned the lessons of the 2016 TGAs an...

What UCForce meant was it's Sony's decision overall, not the decision of fanboys commenting on N4G.
Where's SmoothNinja (aka GameBro aka Rookie) to try and explain to all of us the delusion of how 'Zelda is better than the Last of Us', the same bile he/she/it poisoned on the N4G Community on the PS4 Community app before I challenged the delusion (and got banned from the Community).

[Spoiler warning]
And tell Microsoft and their faux pas 'gaming console' (aka media box which just happens to play checkerboard 4K games) Xbox to do one, return back to Sony and true gaming.
Definitely changing mine so am glad that it's happening
And the best thing is that it will never ever be on an Xbox, the anti-Christ of gaming.
Better than GaaS, fake powah of the cloudzzzz, no games, tv, bluray, espn, and netflix.
PSX sucked? What did Microsoft do, lets see... plant a GaaS award and promotions in that shambles called The Game Awards! The Game Awards have never been more irrelevant in the gaming industry.
'this game could run on a watch at 4k.....'
Ladies and Gentlemen, the Most Deluded Comment of the Year 2017 has just been won by Traingamez. Don't worry though, the Most Deluded User of the Year 2017 has also been awarded... to GameBro the prepubescent kid (aka SmoothNinja aka Rookie) who has just broken the N4G record for most failed attempts at trolling PlayStation related articles and comment threads!
And this is why the TGAs will never become recognised as a true awards show like the oscars for movies or the Ballon D'Or for football/soccer.
@Kribwalker
'35%' completion out of millions who have bought and played/activated the game on a PS4, is a lot of players considering it takes around 35-40 hours to complete the main story.
@gamehoe aka Rookie
You're a troll xbot (aka a kid who was suddenly handed a keyboard after breastfeeding your mommy and dropped on your head) who invades PlayStation comment threads to spread your bile and poison the true gaming fans here. Your comment history clearly proves this. Get out of PlayStation articles kid, real gaming is too much for you GaaS lootbox loving pew pew xbox kiddies.
'Are video game journalists important?'
Judging by how their 'influence' impacted the TGA categories compared to the 'community/gamer' vote...
No.
'I can't find an exact playtime on my PSN account on PC, but I definitely got passed the tutorial. I did get my first override core and I think I'm level 18 or 19? '
Your trophy record on the game is a good indicator of how far you have progressed in the game. Judging from your description being level '18 or 19' takes approx 17 hours, but it does not match with your initial comment of 'I played around 6 hours of it...' and your description of...
Horizon and Super Mario Odyssey got robbed. At least PUBG didn't win, that could have caused widespread riots.
'It's a brand new IP aswell which now sends off the message "If you are thinking about taking a risk and doing something new...don't. You won't get anything for it".'
Relevant after the 2016 TGAs, and again in 2017. It's like the winner at the TGAs is the game that is likely not to get the majority of GotY awards but given the award like a type of sympathy vote. Happened last year with Overwatch (which got resoundingly hounded by Uncharted ...
Well at least PUBG didn't win...
Chapter 9 of the Lost Legacy is the best chapter/level of 2017
