So as most of us know, the VGAS were held in America last night.
22 awards were handed out to a multitude of games, including Splatoon, Super Mario Maker, No Mans Sky & Rocket League.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt took home the ultimate prize with the "Game Of The Year" award. To be honest they deserved it.
Destiny: The Taken King was only nominated for two categories;
Best Multiplayer
Best Shooter
Destiny: The Taken King lost both these categories to Splatoon (a game in which I have never even heard off, but I'm going to look into it later)
Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts? Would you have chosen any other games to take these awards?
Do you think The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt deserved the best award of the night?
Share your thoughts here.
edit: as someone mentioned below. Splatoon also topped Halo 5, COD: BOPS 3, Rocket League and Battlefront.
Edit 2: Great comments guy, keep them coming. I'm trying to reply to you all but I'm in work! I will get round to replying to you all. Great to see a thread with a good discussion for once.

Like you said, Splatoon beat out Destiny AND every other AAA fps game on the market, so no worries there. But really, isn't Destiny in a game category of its own? I like to see it as a "Jack of all trades", but without the negative connotation that comes with the "master of none" part. Destiny does many things well! But Halo 5 beats it in competitive, Fallout beats it in Story, and so on. The fact that Destiny combines all the elements cohesively, is what makes it a great game. Just my two cents :)
