Uncharted and MW 2 are the only likely ones. Going by previous years Uncharted 2 may have a slightly better chance.

Uncharted 2, Killzone 2, Infamous, & Batman are the best games this year so far. MW2 will probably make it into most lists also... from what I've seen of it so far though, I wish they'd stop making a new one every year. I don't see anything much different this time. The single player does look better though.

Ratchet and Clank Future: ACIT

I know it won't win, but it will most likely be my GOTY. I'd like to see Infamous, Demon's Souls, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Batman, or Borderlands win the award though. Don't know if any of those have a legitimate shot, but you never know.

I'dsay unchartded2. Demon's souls has a small chance but probably won't win.COD4-2 and Batman will make most lists, but won't win.

With the amount of awards that Uncharted 2 has already won, I think its safe to say it will get game of the year.

GOTY - Uncharted 2

Personal GOTY - Persona 4 by a freaking landslide.

Uncharted 2. As much as I am anticipating Modern Warfare 2, I think it will be largely more of the same. Bigger, better, faster, stronger, a few new features, but all in all a standard garden-variety military terrorist hunt game with some awesome set pieces. Uncharted's cinematic scope and presentation just bury everything else I've played this year. Killzone 2 seems like a distant memory. U2 is the first time I've been truly excited about a game since MGS4. I guess I shouldn't be surprised that there are doubters and haters, but after playing the game I can't come to grips with it. It seems impossible to hate this game unless you hate all linear games.

..just don't understand the fascination with Uncharted. It's certainly a good game. Thought the first one was fun, but not incredible.

I have the 2nd one and it destroys the 1st one in everything! I felt the same as you for the 1st one(it's fun but not incredible), but Uncharted 2 is both fun and incredible!

Uncharted 2 has a chance, but I'm going to say Assassin's Creed II will take the award... for being so highly improved over the first. Gamespot isn't a big fan of giving the award to shooters, especially those of the first-person variety.

GOTY: Uncharted 2

Best graphics technical: U2

Best Graphics Artistic: Muramasa Demon Blade

best game music: Rock Band Beatles

Best Co op Online: Left 4 dead 2

Best competitive online: Demon Souls

Best shoooter: MW2

Best racer: Forza 3 or Dirt 2

Best RPG: Demon Souls

Best RTS: Little Kings Story

Best Horror game: Resident Evil 5

Best Action game: Uncharted 2

Best platformer: A Boy and his Blob

My take.

h575309

Sounds pretty accurate. Either L4D2 or ODST for co-op online. Also, unfortunately I cant see putting Batman AA over UC2 because I dont think it will beat it out, but maybe sleeper hit of the year for Batman AA. Now that Im thinking about it, with the exception of a few really good games, this year has been kind of lousy.

Really? I liked this year. We're getting a lot of solid AA-AAA games. Plus we're still getting Assassins Creed 2, MW2, Brutal Legend, Ratchet and Clank, Borderlands and NSMBWii. (that name is ridiculous long.)

I bet I missed some, too. Plus, we're still going to be broke trying to buy games that we missed out on! God, I need a job. :cry:

As long as Modern Warfare 2 meets its very high expectations it should definitely have a chance. I havn't played Uncharted 2 yet so I don't have an opinion on it yet. On the list I've only played KZ2, but i'll have played UC2 and MW2 by the end of the year. KZ2 doesn't have a chance, nor does Demon's Souls (due to the number of people complaining about its difficulty lol) Guess we'll have to see. Chinatown Wars didn't get much attention, I thought it was an amazing game. Didn't last very long for me though :(

Uncharted 2. The mp is in my opinion in the same ball park as Modern Warfare 2(just as noobie, but still fun). Campaign wise, I think Uncharted 2 in the early portions isn't anything special, but as the game progresses it really delivers something exciting. The pacing is really good, the intensity is upped a notch, the AI is hit or miss. Hit being every other time, the miss being stealth type sequences. Really love the graphics in this game, the audio work is really good, and the jokes are actually pretty good this time. I pick Uncharted 2. Its too much of a complete package right now to ignore for GOTY imo.

My Personal GOTY would be Demon's Souls, with Batman: AA a runner up (of what I have played).

On GS I think UC2's score has to put it in the running (though let's not forget FM3, MW2, and NSMBW aren't even out yet), though I think Batman: AA will get at least a mention too. It's a fantastic game.

Nah, nothing can be more noobie than Modern Warfare 2, it rewards you for dying for piece sakes for piece sakes.:P I do have to agree kind of, I mean, in my 1st real deathmatch, I had 18 kills and 9 deaths though I could had easily avoided some of those deaths, and I was the best on my team!:D

Also, what an excellent post.

Sorry about the poll lemmings, I know you guys didn't do so well this year but there's always next year :P

I honestly don't think anything stands a chance against UC2 for GOTY this year. In fact, this thread is probably pointless since 90% will say UC2 as well. Oh well.

Here's a twist. Also include your prediction for runners up. I think UC2 will be GOTY with MW2 runners up.

Messiahbolical-
I'm kind of surprised you didn't put Batman Arkham Asylum up there. I think it could really compete with the games in the poll but I give UC2 the gold.

MW2 isn't even out yet people...

if reviews dont start coming out in a week or two (first reviews within ten days), then you gotta start to worry.

TBH, I think NSMB also has a chance, MORE of a chance if it had online though... otherwise i went for DS

GOTY will undoubtedly be UC2 here, with the nominees being Batman, SF4, possibly DS, KZ2 and Infamous. ODST maybe, but I kind of doubt it. We still dont know about Assassins Creed 2 or Forza 3, andthey should not be ignored. I think its very possible they could be nominated as well.

Plants Vs. Zombies deserves GOTY. Uncharted Unshmarted! No game can even be near perfect without plants or zombies. But, Plants Vs Zombies has both, a perfect combo for a perfect game.

True Assassin's Creed 2 & Forza 3 are still to come. Other games haven't released as well, Borderlands & Dragon Age Origins which I say neither should be ignored either.
