If I had picked the GOTY Titles then there would be a few changes but they are what they are I guess.
I think it'd down to the fact that there really was no decent Game Award organization until just very recently and even then The Game Awards (the organization) is still very much in it's infancy. GOTY used to be issued on a per publication basis. There was also the spike game awards but those were really not that good and the precursor to The Game Awards. I think we are in a decent place now at the very least.
It was basically a popularity contest until just recently (and to a degree still is). Like how did Pro Skater 2 win over Baldur's Gate 2 in 2000?
Pretty good ones there, but I'm shocked that not a single Final Fantasy title is there.
Games released earlier in the year were at a disadvantage because GOTY used to be a simple popular vote. FFVII lost to Goldeneye 007 and while both are good games FFVII is definitely the better.
What's crazy is that they were releasing FF games at a clip of almost 1 game per year. It's crazy to think how much game production times have increased since then.
