I dont think there was a single case where a game that comes out on January wins the GOTY.

usually the GOTY goes to the game that comes out September - November.

Will ME2 be the new legend?

Just because they're FINALLY releasing StarCraft 2 doesn't mean it's going to get GOTY.

They've taken way too long with it and giving us pitiful amounts of content. The review better reflect that.

Mass Effect 2 on the other hand...has taken less time to develop than StarCraft 2, and has MUCH more content.

Easy decision in my book.

The thing is that the Mass Effect trilogy are three seperate, complete games. SC2 is one game chopped into three. Difference.

The beta starts the next month. And yes, if the battle reports means anything, Blizzard has the GOTY in their hands.

It doesn't really matter though does it? GotY is a useless 'award' that means absolutely nothing. It isn't about the quality of games but more of the sales numbers and similar datum when it comes to GotY.

But...that's not true in the slightest. The Mass Effect trilogy are three seperate games, and SC2 is one game with two expansions. I don't get where people are getting this "Three games" nonsense from, Blizzard themselves have been calling the other two "games" expansion packs, and have said multiple times that they'll be priced as such.

I hope not o.o Bioshock 2 looks baaaaaaaaaaaad, God of War III looks like...another God of War game, ie: An action game that still can't live up to Devil May Cry 3, and Halo: Reach...will be more halo. But Halo:ODST didn't get GOTY awards from anywhere in 09, so I think Reach has to be REALLY good to get GOTY 2010.

Nah DMC 3 gets repetitive easily. God of War is 10x better than DMC to be honest. But that's just me. :)

Fair enough, everyone has their own opinon :) I personally found God of War much more repetitive than DMC3, as it had less weapon and combo choice, and generally resulted in button mashing broken up with bad platforming sections and the most horrible invention in the history of Games. Quick Time Events :( It's story was pretty generic too. Devil May Cry 3 surprised me with the depth of it's story.

I come in and there is nothing but talk about DMC and God of War LOL. Anyways I think Mass Effect 2 will be a great game, but it more than likely won't win GOTY. There are so many games it has to compete with this year.

details, details, its the same thing at the end of the day. blizzard could do what bioware did and call it starcraft 2, starcraft 3, starcraft 4. but they didn't, not only does it not sound as good as 1, 2, 3, but its just names. bioware can charge you $50 for the same game three times because its called ME1, ME2, and ME3, but if blizzard does the same without the ridiculous numbering it's heresy. i know this is an exaggeration but i think it will get the point across (blizzard said again and again that their pricing will reflect the content). personally, i'd rather they get rid of this numbering nonsense, with games coming out so quickly (MW3, MW4, MW5 very soon) it really is pointless. i don't think starcraft will get goty. reviewers always buy into the hype and find a way to complain about pc games. blizzard have already said they are improving upon the classic starcraft formula (blizzard are pretty good at improving previous formulas) and i'm sure every console oriented reviewer will complain that starcraft2 doesn't deserve it because apparently it's not innovative enough. still likely to be my personal goty. unless blizzard manage to pull an infinity ward on us (have they already?!).

umm if it was about sales, im pretty damn sure that Demon Souls would NOT have won Gamespot's loool. MW2 or some Wii game packaged into something else so it gets ridiculous sales would have had it bagged. Demon Souls sold far less then toooons of other games.

You doubt what? that zelda could be QOTY ( if so your not very smart ) , the zela will come out this year, that metroid could be QOTY or do you doubt that metroid will bad???

Neither will be Games of the Year. Also you are saying I am not smart and you call it Qoty?

Yeah and how in the hell do you measure the amount of content in an Action RPG vs a strategy game? If by content you mean length/replay value than Starcraft 2 pulverizes ME2.
