The Game Awards 2022

Should have won the music category, too. 😤 Tell me you don't want to fight something to the death listening to this.

 
Elden Ring deserves all the awards it gets. This game is the truth. Great look with Kevin Conroy in that Suicide Squad game. I'm a Kojima fan, but I'm not looking forward to Walking Simulator 2 tbh

Armored Core last game was a decade ago. After everything they learned from Dark Souls I actually hope they implement a Division style looter mode to the game. Plus its coming to PC meaning mods are inevitable. I just hope it actually comes out in 2023 and not get delayed til winter 2024
