The Golden Joystick Awards is one of the oldest and most prestigious awards for video games. The 38-year-old honor was initially focused on PC games but later expanded to include console games.

The winners are selected by the voting process online, where anyone can vote for the games they think deserve the title.

The 2021 Golden Joystick Awards were announced last night, and the best games were crowned in over 20 categories, including Ultimate Game of All Time and Ultimate Hardware of All Time.
