Best shooter? I'd say so. Best character? Nah. Best voice acting? You could argue that. I actually loved Sam Worthington's performance (Avatar vibes), and Gary Oldman was amazing as well.

Blackops had very good voice acting, and over all the characters were very good.

Reznov, yes. Sgt. Woods, hell no. I have no idea why he was even freaking nominated.

Best character should go to RDR; Bad Company 2 and Halo reach are better shooters in my opinion.

I'd say character should be Scott Shelby from Heavy Rain.

Gary Oldman did a fantastic job as Reznov, arguably best performance of the year, but I don't think so.

And the game is far from the best shooter. In fact, it really isn't that good at all. Such a shame to see it winning here on the reader's choice ballot.

Halo Reach deserves best shooter, and Mordin is -- by far -- a better character than any typical cliche military hardass guy in Black Ops.

No, he wasn't in Big Red One for sure, don't remember him in United Offensive, and I'm pretty sure he wasn't in CoD3 either. Actually, Reznov is his first video game voice acting role.

Oh ok. I didn't touch any of the CoD games that were spinoffs (Big Red One, Finest Hour) so I didn't even know Treyarch developed them. And I never played United Offensive, didn't know Treyarch did that either.

No and no. Woods is completely forgettable compared to Resnov and Price. As for best shooter, there have been better ones this year. Black Ops is much better than WAW and MW2, but that doesn't mean much, and is nowhere near as balanced as people tout it is.

Best character should go to RDR; Bad Company 2 and Halo reach are better shooters in my opinion.

Reznov. That is all.

And isn't it crazy how Gary Oldman kinda looks like Reznov?

Actually, I was thinking more along the lines of Scott Adkins looking like Reznov.

I haven't played it, but in all honesty I think Mr. Marston has that title in the bag.

Sam Worthington was terrible...what are you talking about?

There were specific moments in Black ops were he completely breaks his character...

I love Avatar. Sam Worthington being in Black Ops reminded me of Avatar. Not much more to it.

Best shooter, no that goes to Vanquish IMO. Best new character, eh that probably would go to RDR.

loved reznov although i would say someone from noble team as one of the best characters, you could tell each had a personality that would reflect onto others

carter and kat, emile and Jorge, jun and the rest of noble, although i would pick jorge if any, he had a heart.

It doesn't deserve it's best character. Reznov was just very one-dimensional. Sure, he [spoiler] randomly betrayed you by brainwashing you [/spoiler] , but it's never understood why or what was going through his mind when he did it. Woods was freaking insane though, I love that guy. He's also 1-D, but he's so ****ing intense, I love it. I wouldn't have minded if he won, but that's only cause I can't take the VGAs seriously and don't expect an actually deep and well done character to win. If that were the case, characters from Mass Effect 2 would have won. Any of them, take your pick.

true, but just like in Avatar, Sam's fake American accent broken several times throughout.

for best character, i'd say the winner should be any of the main characters from Heavy Rain.

you got that wrong. woods was being brainwashed by Kravtchenko. Rexnov was ruining Kravtchenko's work by trying to break the brainwashing program and "reprogramming" woods to kill Kravtchenko.

John Marston not winning best character is a crime. Especially losing to a underdeveloped character from COD. No one can beat Marston this year, or RDR for that matter.

Maybe if you enjoy simplified games. :P

At least Bad Company 2 has teamwork and tactics.

:lol: Wait Blops has characters? I'm sorry are you talking about those two dimensional bots? Gosh that's funny. No the characters in Blops are all pretty terrible, by hollywood film or video game standards - yes even the totally predictable and unoriginal Reznov. Yes the singleplayer had an ok, enjoyable (but predictable narrative). That being said best shooter? Hah, hell no. It's a decent game, nothing noteworthy at all.

Not really, the campaign was pretty good, but it didn't have the best characters and I liked Reach better than it.
