halo infinite is winning viewers choice so far by a wide margin, but yeah i'd expect the critics panel or whatever to splooge the awards all over Returnal (old grandma protag, STUNNING AND BRAVE) and Deathloop (black people save the day, STUNNING AND BRAVE)
probably some shit indie games too but i dunno what the gayest one is in 2021
Returnal is fantastic though. A+ visuals, sound design and gameplay. So it does deserve some awards in my opinion.
Looking forwards to trying Halo, not played one since Halo 3, but watched a recap.
