[Ezekiel_]

Well deserved!

Can't wait to see what that studio does next!

 

[Bartski]

 

[WoodyStare]

It’s an absolutely fantastic game in every way. Well deserved.

 

[elliot5]

Congrats to Housemarque and the rest of the award winners. Some surprises throughout the show

 

[skit_data]

Can’t wait to see what’s next for Housemarque. Very well deserved.

 

[remember_spinal]

well deserved, cant wait to see what they do next

 

[kyliethicc]

 

[ethomaz]

Expected and deserved.
It was the best overall game last year.

Plus you can play it today and it is still amazing good without the emotional recent memory... well even better than at launch.

 

[Gordon Freeman]

Psychonauts 2 is the real winner

 

[Arthimura]

Well deserved, Returnal is my 2021 GOTY.

I'm also currently playing Resogun. I didn't played it when it released and I'm having a blast now.

 

[Markio128]

Well deserved. Returnal has been a breath of fresh air and I’m super excited for their next game. I really need to try the new update as well.

 

[ToadMan]

Yep. Deserved.

 

[El Pistolero]

Well deserved, Returnal is my 2021 GOTY.

I'm also currently playing Resogun. I didn't played it when it released and I'm having a blast now.

Resogun is a hard drug...I spent countless hours jumping back into my ship in-between just as many different games. A classic!

 

[Cert.in.Death]

A truly incredible game. And it couldn’t happen to a better team than Housemarque.

 

[Hobbygaming]

Returnal is my favorite pick up and play kind of game, the replay value is very good too with the unpredictability of which buffs or which malfunctions you get

The gameplay is also sublime

From what i have seen and what friends have told me, it is well deserved.

Nice to see one hell of a great studio getting rewarded.

 

[Badlucktroll]

Well deserved!

Can't wait to see what that studio does next!

Hopefully Contra

 

[AtomicStarving]

AMAZING GAME!

 

[decisions]

Easily my 2020 GOTY and best PS5 game.

 

[Captain Toad]

It was definitely my GOTY last year. Such an awesome game.

 

[kyliethicc]

 

[Withnail]

Best game so far this gen, well deserved.

Gameplay, visuals, audio, haptics, story, technology (those load times, phew), replayability, challenge, this game has it all.

 

[Mr Hyde]

One of the best games so far on the current systems. Returnal deserves all the praise it gets. It's so goddamn good.

 

[DeepEnigma]

I really need to pick this one up.

 

[Pedro Motta]

The true GOTY right there.

What an amazing game. Can't wait for their next one.

 

[Tripolygon]

Well earned.

 

[kyliethicc]

I really need to pick this one up.

Must play.

For those who wanna try before buying, it is gonna be on PS+ Extra in June.

 

[Rudius]

I have being playing the free DLC. The game is fantastic and controls perfectly. My only complaint is the difficulty.

 

[A.Romero]

Hopefully Contra

That sounds like a match made in heaven but I don't think it can happen unless the rumors about Sony acquiring Konami's IP are real... (Very unlikely)

Must play.

For those who wanna try before buying, it is gonna be on PS+ Extra in June.

What's PS+ Extra?

I want to play the game but I can wait...

 

[Kilau]

Guess I’ll play Returnal on plus premium or whatever. Unpacking is one of those overhyped indie darlings, brain dead “puzzles”.

 

[kyliethicc]

What's PS+ Extra?

I want to play the game but I can wait...

UPDATE: All-new PlayStation Plus launches in June with 700+ games and more value than ever

PlayStation Plus and PlayStation Now come together; players can choose from three flexible options.

[jm89]

Quality wins.

 

[StealthGoblin]

For the life of me I still don’t understand how this game didn’t even make the final list of nominees for the Game Awards. It is by far and away the best game I’ve played since God of War 2018 in terms of completeness and ‘wow’ factor.

 

[TrebleShot]

I love the gameplay , atmosphere and everything about it other than I can’t get past the second biome lol

 

[DeepEnigma]

Must play.

For those who wanna try before buying, it is gonna be on PS+ Extra in June.

Definitely gonna pick it up. Enjoy all their games, just cleaning up some backlog.

 

[arvfab]

Congratulations to all winners.

GOTY is well deserved. Returnal was really an outstanding experience last year. Will dive into the DLC once I got my platinum in Elden Ring.

Also well deserved 3 awards for the best looking, Pixar quality R&C (3rd one being for best fur in gaming).

 

[Dr Bass]

The absolute real best game of the year for 2021 IMO. And I played all the contenders.

Thank you BAFTAs.

 

[Zeroing]

The studio does deserve it to finally get some recognition . It’s a good game!

 

[TheGodfather07]

i didnt play it but im happy for the team. i knew they could make the jump to AAA because they've always been solid.

 

[BlvckFox]

Incredible game, so happy the team is getting recognized for it. Now get crackin’ on that sequel.

 

[SlimySnake]

Thats pretty amazing tbh. They made a great game. I bought it again recently to level up some of the end game weapons and while it was kind of a pain in the ass, it was fun to see the final form of the weapons. i ended up playing it for a good 50 hours. It's a great game.

 

[abacab driver]

This is the most positive I've ever seen Gaf be about the BAFTAS. Ever. Lol

 

[pratyush]

Its a great game and if you have someone to play with then it gets even better.

 

[SLB1904]

Sony should buy a warehouse to store these awards.

 

[8BiTw0LF]

 

[Bryank75]

Incredible... gonna pick it up soon!

Just buried in games ATM.

 

[Rivet]

For the record, here is the Xbox studios BAFTA 2022 award too :

- Best British game : Forza Horizon 5

 

[R6Rider]

I still need to play this.

 

[DenchDeckard]

Bafta done good here. Incredible game. Can't wait for what's next.
