Game of the Year 2012 will be either Halo 4 or Dishonored (AC3 am cry)

Of course it'll be Assassin's Creed 3 and not Halo Snore:P

Dishonored will be a candidate but it's relatively unknown still. TheDidact

demon's souls was rather unknown when it won goty.

Call of Duty Black Ops 2. You heard it here first.

[spoiler] Dishonored [/spoiler]

I doubt it'll be either of these, but I'll go with Halo 4, from your title.

I'm hoping it'll be Halo 4, but thats just hoping.... it'll probably go to something else, here at Gamespot.

It's so cute how people assume I have bad taste simply because I don't make threads like this for overhyped "AAA" garbage such as Halo 4. What in the hell is special about this game folks? How does it warrant GOTY? What has it done that's new? Mindless sheep.

Halo 4 wont be the best shooter this year. (Max Payne 3)

Given GameSpot's editorial preferences, Dishonored has GOTY on lock.

Yes. It's the Halo formula with some of the newer, more popular FPS tropes added in (loadouts, perks) to nab the attention of the youngsters. GOTY!

I thought it was pretty good. Had so much fun with it.

[QUOTE="charizard1605"] Have you actually, I don't know, followed the game?charizard1605

Yes. It's the Halo formula with some of the newer, more popular FPS tropes added in (loadouts, perks) to nab the attention of the youngsters. GOTY!

No, it being the same exact thing as it's always been makes it overrated. Halo 4 does nothing new or noteworthy to warrant being considered for GOTY, yet here people are already calling it for some unspeakable reason. What does it do to deserve GOTY?

And btw, unlike a lot of people here, I can actually comment on some of it's quality because I have watch walkthroughs of the campaign online. Guess what, the campaign is just as generic as anything you will find in Call of Duty.

Probably Paper Mario SS or Nintendo Land for me (my guess)

I think this year will be tight, there's no clear winner like Skyrim, but I'm guessing ACIII will come out on top.

In that case SMG2 should've won some more GOTY's

I'm not seeing this indisputable quality. I've seen everything this game has to show for in countless other FPS titles.

You are a sheep and you only like what the media tells you to like. Live a little bit and take a trip off the beaten path like I do. You will be surprised by just how damn good a lot of the games are that get totally ignored. Some of them blow these so called AAA franchises out of the water.

Are you being cerial?

There was no tension or buildup to it like in ME1 and ME3, it was just like "Oh hey, there's that sucide mission we have to do now. May as well get it over with" Although that's mainly due to the lack of development in the abysmal main plot.

Why is Hitman: Absolution off the list? Also I have a hard time believing Halo 4 would get GOTY over AC3. AC3 is an enormous step up from previous iterations. Blazerdt47
