They are picking up GOTY left and right from various sites!! I would know, I've been voting and watching, but still yay!

Nice! Just keep 'em coming and drown out the naysayers.

add Gamesradar to that list... now they just need to pick up a win at DICE.

I wonder how many individual GOTY awards they have won now?

It's nominated for something on GameTrailers too, but it's buried in a video somewhere.

Just wanted to pop in here and thank you guys SO MUCH for all your support! The amazing response to The Walking Dead is something we never could have anticipated, and the community here has been a big part of that. It's very much appreciated by everyone over here at Telltale!

Holy cow. And I very much appreciate how effectively you ripped my heart out and stomped it on the floor. You beautiful bastards.

BTW, I continue to bug everyone I know to play this thing. I want to make them cry like I did.

The Married Gamers? Yahoo Games? Cheat Code Central? Geek Badge? Complex.com? I will openly admit that winning GotY at the Spike VGA awards was an impressive feat but to actually list these other sites, as if it actually means anything....well, that is nothing short of comical. Even Spike's VGA awards have a serious credibility issue but at least it has some credibility. Most of the sites listed here have absolutely ZERO credibility, especially for something like GotY. The Married Gamers, lol.

I'm super pumped that the arbiter of what constitutes reputable forms of gaming media showed up.

I know, right? It's so reassuring to know he, she or it is watching over us to let us know what opinions to value.

Too bad it's not a cute little baby troll though — they're so fuzzy, warm and harmless. Unless you feed them that is, then they multiply like tribbles and clog up the wheat bins.

I remember there was this forum somewhere that tracked all GOTY awards on various media.. forgot the link to it now though.. anyone still has it?


--edit--

Found it: http://gotypicks.blogspot.nl/

Pretty expansive list.. and it has TWD ahead of everyone else by more than double the amount. While most good games of 2012 are stuck around 9-11, TWD is on 26 so far.

great.

Lolz..Same here.

And in TTG facebook page,they said that they've won over 55 awards.This is crazy,but this game SO deserves it

Psyconix

55 awards right now and I'm sure they will get some more. Winning the VGA 2012 GOTY award was probably the most important one. The team at Telltale should be very proud of their work.
