Game Critics Awards ha stilato l’elenco delle nomination per i migliori giochi esibiti all’E3 2017.
Per chi non la conoscesse, Game Critics Awards è un’organizzazione che riunisce 40 testate giornalistiche sparse per tutto il mondo, naturalmente a stampo videoludico.
Quest’anno la palma di publisher “più nominato” va ad Ubisoft, con 14 candidature contro le 11 dello scorso anno. Per quanto riguarda le console, invece, vince PS4 – almeno, ripetiamo, per quanto riguarda le nomination.
