Journey leads nominations for developer-picked 2013 GDC awards

The peer-moderated Game Developers Choice Awards has announced its 2013 shortlist, with nominations for the ten categories decided by other game developers.

Journey, GameSpot's Game of the Year for 2012, received the most nods with six nominations. Other games hoovering up attention include Dishonored and The Walking Dead, with four and three nominations respectively.

Plenty of indie games stand alongside blockbuster releases, with titles such as Hotline Miami, Mark of the Ninja, FTL, Spelunky and Hero Academy being nominated alongside Mass Effect 3, Assassin's Creed III and Halo 4.

The nominations for the most coveted of the GDC awards -- Game of the Year -- are Dishonoured, The Walking Dead, Mass Effect 3, XCOM: Enemy Unknown and Journey.

Any game released in 2012 is eligible for the 13th annual Game Developers Choice Awards, with an open balloting process providing the shortlist that is then judged by an invitation-only panel of game creators.

Winners will be announced on March 27 at the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco.
