Maybe on a very weak year. So far, this year counts. GTAIV gets it.

Spore, LBP, Gears 2 all have shots, but we have to play them before we know for sure. Spore and LBP certainly look to be more innovative than much else that has been released this year. GTA4 and MGS4 were both 3 weeks of play and done for me. I've played every prior GOTY much longer than that.

So far, I would say MGS4 deserves the GOTY, with GTAIV as a really close runner up. But by the end of the year, who knows?

I think they are both worthy contenders, I would have said no to GTA IV earlier on, but I think I was quite hard on it. It might not have been a huge improvement over SA in terms of stuff to do, but I always find myself going back to it and spending a few hours having fun doing some criminal activity.

I don't think GTAIV deserves GOTY. Still a quality title, but lacking in a lot of aspects.

GTA4 should not be game of the year or even considered in my opinion, it was disappointing. MGS4 should not automatically get it because it got a 10 but it should be in the running for game of the year because of how great of a game it is.

I'm pretty sure GOTY is decided by all the Gamespot's editors.

Well yeah, but that shouldn't stop people from speculating :?

Also, there are separate end of the year awards decided on by the public.

I don't think either of those two games deserved a 10 out of 10. The only game in the last 2-3 years that was deserving of a 10 was Portal, which didn't get one. Those two would seem to be the frontrunners for GOTY right now, however.

MGS4 deserves it, GTA4 is a great game but it's not GOTY.

If MGS4 doesn't win Little Big Planet needs to.

mgs4 was a huge improvemnet from previous games

gta 4 was the retard child of rockstar that didn't not deserve a 10 but got it because his parents were famous.

Grand Theft Auto IV deserves and will get it

Not only did it sell a lot but unlike Metal Gear Solid, Grand Theft Auto IV got perfects from almost every publication out there

It's sitting really high up on the Gamerankings unlike MGS4 which is being beaten by Halo 3 and Gears of War by the way

Gamerankings play a big role, Super Mario Galaxy anyone?

no. hell no. gta games are complete garbage and mgs4,while a fantastic game, doesn't deserve it imo. as of right now sure i suppose but i'm waiting for mirrors edge, farcry2, and (even though i'm the only one who will love this game no matter what) cod world at war.

I can't wait until Braid, a downloadable low-budget sidescroller, wins game of the year after going multiplat.

What poetic justice would that be?

Yo! These two game deserves all the credit and attention, but they are not "perfect" games in no way. GTAIV is a great game, but in my opnion isn't the G.O.T.Y. MGS4 deserves that honor (the story itself is worthy).

It would be rather ridiculous imo to have at least two games garner a perfect 10 and not give GOTY to either of them. Not to mention, while the rest of the year is filled with excellent titles, I'm not sure how many of them are actually ten worthy. Out of the two, my personal vote goes to MGS 4 as I and many people, including reviewers found it a truly excellent experience. However, it's really anyone's guess between them.

According to that logic we should just give the goty award to books and movies.

the new scoring system made it easier to score 10's

if you converted to this system, Gears of war would round up to a 10, metroid prime a 10, etc

MGS would have sold exactly the same amount of copies if it didn't have online, the online is a bonus, MGS's singleplayer is GOTY material x2, at least so far, let's hope we get a ton of rivals throughout the year xD I doubt it though =|.

I'm guessing a 9.6(gears) would have become a 9.5, not a 10.
