I doubt cows will be completely blown away by it. Need I remind you we have experienced MGS4, so it takes alot to impress us :P

If ME2 turns out as great as people say, then freakin awesome.

RyanShazam

MGS4 is your standard-setter? Then I can assure you you'll be completely blown away by Mass Effect 2.

Haha I was thinking the same thing! So many better games have come out since MGS4

Filth and lies. Only game that comes close to MGS4 is RE4, and that came out BEFORE it :P

Mass Effect 2. It's so good I'm currently suffering through ME1 (I will never complain about planet scanning again) just to set up my canon renegade Shep.

PBSnipes
Amen. I mean planet scanning was wack, but do you people honestly remember how lame the side planets were? Sooo bad. Still wish ME2 had more cities. For a 'rich' universe it needed more places that showed it had some life to it.

Discussing Mass Effect 2 with you is making me want to stat a new file right now! Ima wait for the PS3 version though. Honestly I find Uncharted 2 to be the game to compete with on the PS3. MGS4 was top dog but then Nathan Drake came along and changed things up a bit.

As someone who enjoyed ME1's combat and was generally ambivalent about the Mako (sure it drove like ass, but it wasn't overtly offensive) prior to playing ME2, it's shocking how poorly ME1 holds up in comparison. At least I know I don't have to bother with ****ing Pinnacle Station again.

meh I just thought ME1 played like ass all around. Garrus headshotting that son of a ***** when he saves that one chick on the citadel is so badass though. Plus Illos and endgame stuff was fun.

Fable 3 by far, there is nothing like it

Alan Wake and Mass Effect 2 would be my 2ond and 3rd choices

I think Epic Mickey has a good chance. Of games already released I'd say it is between Starcraft 2 and SMG2 so far.

Mass Effect 2 is my choice. Overall, I think it's between Mass Effect 2, Starcraft 2, Read Dead Redemption and Super Mario Galaxy 2.

I'm not really qualified to vote since I haven't really played anything that has come out so far this fall, but out of everything else this year it'd be SMG2 with Red Dead Redemption and Mass Effect 2 taking silver and bronze

Personally, none of those. But as for what GS picks, out of those and based on their past trends, SMG. They almost always pick an exclusive, and AAAAE's always win it.

I think my brain is going to explode, a Journyman just presented a reasonable argument! Anyways, that's just the personal preference of those reviewers. They award GOTY based on which game is objectively best for it's genre. Most of the staff might appreciate RPGs more than Platformers, but they can't let that personal bias influence their scores or awards.

How can you not list Starcraft2??? Seriously? Name this CONSOLE GAME OF THE YEAR if your not gonna list pc games.

Starcraft2, Mass Effect2 and Fallout New Vegas are the years best games imo.

Mario Galaxy2 could very well win it though.

Maybe because the last time a pc game won Gamespot's overall GotY was when they had seperate sites for pc and console games?

Still, it's hands-down the best RTS around. It'll at least get nominated, and IMO it should win if SMG2 doesn't. There'll be bigger and better RPGs than ME2 and RDR, but ten years from now people will still play SMG2 and SC2, the peak of their genres.

Fallout New Vegas (pc) if not for all the crashing. I came out of the remnants cave, and lo and behold, Arcade is walking at me naked. Then he says "I may be a bit rusty." I was of course horrified. This happened after loading an autosave after the game crashed on me at that scene. He wasn't supposed to be naked. .___. I've got over 70 hour in the game already, 3 endings, now on my 3rd character going for the 4th ending. It is definitely my game of the year with Rock Band 3 just trailing. Mass Effect 2 (pc) is a distant 3rd, but this has been a pretty full year. 3rd ain't that bad.

Starcraft 2 needs to be in that list.

My favorite games this year would be Red Dead Redemption, Mass Effect 2, Fallout: New Vegas, Heavy Rain, STALKER: COP, Starcraft 2 and Mafia 2, with SC2 being the best of the lot.

If a game of SC2's quality was released as a console exclusive, there wouldn't even be a discussion.

Um, to who? As far as I know the game recieved alot of critical acclaim and sold a crap ton. Am I missing something? I mean I loved it. Not as amazing as GOW 2 but great none the less.

My choice stands as a tie between Bayonetta and Super Mario Galaxy 2. I just can't choose one over the other. Mass Effect 2 is right behind.

mass effect 2, but like others here I think RDR will win. Thats a great game also so I dont mind too much.
