Best of 2014 Game Awards – Best Action, PSN, Soundtrack and JP Release

Welcome to PlayStation LifeStyle’s year-end awards where we name the best game in each genre and then some.

We’ll be rolling out different categories for each day, with the Game of the Year winner named in the final post along with a summary of every award we’ve handed out so far. Astute readers might also notice that there are some genres which are noticeably absent. No, we haven’t forgotten about ’em, but for genres which we think didn’t have a standout game, we avoided naming the best in that category altogether since we think only the best games should get a nod.

Those wondering how each game won, the staff voted on each game in each category, with the most votes being declared the winner.

Make sure to check back tomorrow for another batch of categories and nominees.
