The 2016 Game Awards Nominations: Read The List Here

It's crazy to think but The Game Awards are coming up again already. It seemed like just a few months ago we were celebrating Metal Gear Solid V and Hideo Kojima's swan song for Konami, and now we're back at that time of the year.

Over on the official Game Awards website they have a list of the nominees for this year's categories including both the jury-selected nominees and the user-selected nominees. You can check it out below.
