Sorry Keith, but "Please refrain from cursing in the non-social forums" has to be one of the unintentionally funniest things I've ever seen.Cause I'm a dick and I like to piss people off. If people want to talk about console games, GO TO THAT ****** FORUM. You're a regular over there, you know what it's like if you mention PC games.
Cursing removed. Please refrain from cursing in the non-social forums.

That was me. And the answer is? I do dislike "console exclusives" and can't see the value; I would NEVER buy a console just to play a game, so what's the point of exclusivity? Seems to me these companies are cutting out profits to be made from other venues (i.e. PC). My opinion is "Too bad, so sad" and move on. There are too many good PC games out there to fret over one "exclusive" game. As for GOTY, I don't see how "exclusive" games can be considered when 3/4 of gamers can't play them.Is there any chance The Last of Us will be ported to PC?
I assumed as much...anyway, have enough "old" games to keep me occupied until TW3 comes out...STALKER CS, Deus ex HR, Oblivian, Metro 2033, Skyrim, TW2...I'm happy.GOTY has nothing to do with PC or CONSOLE or EXCLUSIVE, its supposed to be the BEST of all of them..
Not even a contest, The Last of Us
Oh, I'm sorry that I was just giving something for people to reference. As I said, it wasn't an absolute list and was missing some indie games that people might feel are GotY contenders.
And if you don't like my attitude, then ignore me - it's pretty fuckin simple. I don't click into PC Gaming to read about console games, period.
Lmao why you mad girl? There's midol for that.
Also, The Last of Us is GotY.
I haven't played many games released in 2013. I'm still trying to finish games from 2011 and 2012 thanks to Steam Holiday Sales.
That said, Metro: Last Light was a game I got for upgrading my graphics card this year. Didn't touch it for a long time, but when I did, WOW, did it suck me in. Amazing atmosphere and tension. I don't know how far I am through it, and some of the plot devices seem a bit wonky, but I would say this is the best game I've played in some time.
On top of an amazing story, the game was fun and intense as hell to play. The Last of Us, in my opinion, sets the new standard on how video game developers should weave a beautiful story in with top-notch game play.
Wait why are we talking about the last of us though? I thought this was PC games of the year?
When I see game of the year asked, unless specified a platform or type, it is open to all games that came out the current year.
