Well said AppleOutsider, just like any other media you would be a fool to take one person or organisations word on anything without doing the research yourself.

You were spot-on with this year’s picks. Waking Mars was my personal favorite and I definitely put a ton of hours into 10000000. The Room was perfect, aside from the fact that it ended right about when...

I agree. I gave Walking Mars a go, and found it really boring.

why not? they considered Jetpack Joyride for GOTY last year and Punch Quest is 100 times more fun than that game. plus on the same token, i can ask why would they include a match-3 game in the GOTY...

IMO Magic 2013 was and is the best iPad game. It has a ton of decks with lots of depth and a large online community to compete against. Even though Modern Combat 4 is uninspired, the visuals are...

I agree that it’s nice to highlight fresh, original content. But at the end of the day if the original stuff isn’t the best of the year (which it’s not) then it shouldn’t win GOTY awards. UNLESS, you...
