OVERALL READER'S 2016 GAME OF THE YEAR

> DOOM

I love coasters and my fake ex-girlfriend Emily but it’s Doom. Play it now. Play it again. It is PC gaming. DOOM! BEN FARLEY

> CIV 6

Love the new graphics & the districts. CASSIE EDMAN

> NO MAN'S SKY

I have never seen a game attract such dedicated haters - months after it came out, people are still posting bile-filled rants about how bad it is. For dominating the lives of even lots of people who don’t play it - Game of the year. PATRICK GRACE

> DEUS EX MANKIND DIVIDED

Hard year - lots of great games came out. I’d have to go with Deus Ex - long after I’d finished my third playthrough I was still thinking about the world, where it was heading, where it come from. I really enjoyed it from start to finish. MATTHEW SCHMIDT

> DOOM

“For me, I think I really have to choose Doom. I really enjoyed it and have picked it for a few best of categories. It’s the standout winner for me.” TOBIAS BUSUTTIL

> BATTLEFIELD 1

Just good overall” SABYAN HARDJO

> DOOM

An old-school shooter for an old-school PC game fan in his late 40’s! Hope my eyesight will keep up for a few more years of gaming! DALE STOHR

Updating an iconic franchise for a modern audience whilst reintroducing elements of what made the originals so great that are missing in a lot of today’s titles. JASON KING
