The Escapist‘s Game of the Year Voting Has Closed

You had your chance to vote for Game of the Year and now it’s time to play the waiting game.

As of right now, the voting for The Escapist‘s Game of the Year 2012 has ended. Thank you to everyone that participated in this year’s poll, and I hope you’re all enjoying your shiny new badge. Santa and his elves will be counting the ballots for us, but given how busy they’ll be tomorrow, we’ll be announcing the winner on Wednesday, December 26th.

Be sure to check back on Wednesday to see what the community thinks of this year’s videogame lineup. Do you think your pick will take the prize, or do you fancy your game of choice an underdog in this? What about the editor’s choices? While we couldn’t decide between us what the Game of the Year should be, hence calling on you good folks to decide for us, we do each have a pick to share with you this Wednesday when the community choice winner is announced.

If I were a betting man, which I’m not, and I certainly don’t advocate illegal gambling, but if I were, I would put pretty good odds that at least one editor chose the community-selected winner for their Game of the Year. The long shot in this case is which editor and, of course, what game. Good luck guessing that in the forums and keep an eye out for the winner announcement on Wednesday. Happy Holidays to you all!
