After tallying up the score on my predictions, I seem to have gotten 10 out of 20 categories right and to be fair, 10 out of 23 overall as I was unaware of three categories: most anticipated game, character of the year, and best mobile game. I would have gotten best mobile game correct by the way. Love it or hate it, these are the chosen games of the year according to the VGX committee.
