Jim Sterling: We have an award show for you to cram down your gullet! Five games, five Game of the Year awards, all cop. The Jimquisition Awards honor the best games in a year that, to be honest, had quite a few disappointments. Nonetheless, these are all worthy picks, with two honorable mentions, and if you havent played any of them, you ought to take some time this holiday season.

Midlife Gamer says "With a multitude of awards that the Midlife Gamer Community voted on this year, today we move swiftly on to cover another four of the newer awards. These awards in themselves are not linked in any way but the winners that you voted for all had a distinct Sony flavour so without further ado MunkiMatt brings you Part 2 of the Midlife Gamer Miscellaneous Community Awards."

Midlife Gamer says "If, like me, you grew up in the era of the N64 and PlayStation then you no doubt are fully aware of the disappointment that surrounded the original South Park games. Add to this the trepidation we all feel when a movie or TV tie in is released, it is no leap of faith that you were also somewhat reserved when the game was announced. As this vote reveals, if you were, we were both sorely and thankfully mistaken."

Midlife Gamer says "Another year has come and gone and with it the first birthday of the Next Gen machines. At times it has been underwhelming and at times overwhelming. Sometimes it has displayed how clever gaming can be and at other times how elements of gaming- or gaming related things can make you shake your head and despair. Has 2014 been the year of gaming we were promised probably not. Has it been an eventful year Hell Yes."

EGMR writes: "There is really no explanation required for this award, and you probably dont need us tell you how distasteful the nature of it really is. Still, its no holds barred for us, and we feel the need to acknowledge the games that shocked us purely because of how bad they really were. Unlike the most disappointing game award, this one is truly given to the downright worst game of the year. In order to be a nominee, a game has to go above and beyond just being bad, and into shocking territory. One of the largest factors, putting aside the actual quality of the game, is how the game in question can, in no way, justify paying for it.

Since there are a great many games that...
