Game Critics Awards 2012: Die nominierten Titel in der Übersicht

Auch in diesem Jahr wird mit den Game Critics Awards die wichtigste beziehungsweise angesehenste Auszeichnung der Videospiel-Industrie verliehen. Traditionell werden lediglich Titel nominiert, die im Rahmen der E3 in einer spielbaren Version zur Verfügung standen.

Heute enthüllte man die Nominierten der verschiedenen Kategorien. Wie im Prinzip nicht anders zu erwarten war, gehen Blockbuster wie „Halo 4“, „The Last of Us“ oder „Dishonored“ als aussichtsreichste Kandidaten ins Rennen und haben die Möglichkeit, in gleich vier Kategorien einen Award abzustauben. Hinzukommen „Tomb Raider“ und „Assassin’s Creed 3“ mit jeweils drei Nominierungen.

Die Gewinner werden am 26. Juni bekannt gegeben. Welche Titel in welcher Kategorie antreten, entnehmt ihr der folgenden Liste.
