We are quickly approaching the end of 2024, and it's that time of year again! The Game Awards have announced their nominees for 2024, and the selections are a tad more controversial this time. Which of their nominees deserve to be considered for Game of the Year? Today, we predict the winners and losers of The Game Awards, and speculate on potential game reveals. As always, we conclude with the games we're playing (Factorio: Space Age, Overwatch 2). This episode was recorded in November 2024. Intro and outro music composed for Gametalk by Dylan Chase ([email protected]).
