2018 har været et fremragende år for spil, men hvordan forholder det sig så, når det kommer til at kaste priser efter alle spillene? Det er lige præcis, hvad The Game Awards går ud på, og de har faktisk lige uddelt en hel røvfuld priser, som du kan se den komplette fordeling af i listen herunder. I kategorierne er de nominerede listet, mens vinderen er markeret med fed. Årets spil blev God of War, mens det helt store hit Red Dead Redemption 2 måtte nøjes med en nominering. Det kan man jo mene om, hvad man vil, men det er imidlertid faktum.
