Our census begins in 2003. For 1999 we list only the awards we could source one at a time, so this is a record that these awards happened — not a count of how many were given. It must not be compared with a tracked season; see the methodology.
Game of the Year 1999
4 games tied on 1 award
No game leads 1999. The Sims, Gran Turismo 2, Soulcalibur and Final Fantasy VIII each took 1 of the 4 awards we can source for this season. With a field this small a tie is not a close race, it is the absence of a result.
Every game that won at least one Game of the Year award in 1999, ranked by wins.
