It’s that time again, when we all get to celebrate the best games of the year. And what a year 2018 turned out to be, with an amazing balance between AAA and indie titles, action adventures and story based games, and just about everything else anyone could have imagined.

Step one is separating the truly great games from ones that were merely pretty good. We do that in the nomination stage. Don’t worry if you didn’t play any games in a category. Just let us know your favorite title in ones where you played. The five top nominees in each category will then be voted on for the coveted game of the year crown. And this is totally a people’s vote, so the fate of those best games will be completely up to you.

You can nominate your favorite games right now, and nominating is open through March 7th.

May the best games win!
