Best Strategy Game
A fantastic category for a fantastic genre, some particularly strong contenders including one from the Total War series, XCOM and Dark Souls which I particularly hope wins the award for 'most sadistic game to grace this earth', if there was such a category. The Nominations Total War Shogun 2: Fall Of The Samurai Diablo III Football Manager 2013 XCOM: Enemy Unknown Great Big War Game Dark Souls: Prepare To Die Winner XCOM: Enemy Unknown Judging from the audience reaction this is a well deserved win, XCOM: Enemy Unknown is a remake of the fiendishly difficult 80's XCOM series. An incredibly inventive and obviously strategic game that has no problems punishing you with the permanent death of your squad mates should you take your eye off the ball for even a moment.
