Снощи се проведе годишното събитие – Game Awards. За голямо съжаление съм в най-натоварения си период от годината, нямах възможност да го проследя и се запознавам с резултатите в последствие. С огромно удоволствие разбирам, че игра на годината е спечелена от PS4 ексклузивното заглавие – God of War. Според мен нещо заслужено и е преборила заглавия и франчайзи, като Assassin’s Creed Odyssey и дори Red Dead Redemption 2.
