We are pretty much there. I think everything is out that is going to score high. Forza 3 and Uncharted 2 have the highest scores right at 9.5? Or am I missing something? Dragon Age also got a 9.5 for the pc version. Gay Tony also scored a 9.5 if you want to count an expansion. But everything else scored 9 or below. Since this is system wars lets make it an exclusive battle. If Gamespot is going to pick their goty you'd think it would have to be one of these right? Unless COD or Ass Creed comes in and wins it.

Forza??? That game is probably great for a racing game, but for an overall experience? no.

Probably UC2. Its one of the greatest games that I have ever played. But if I make any vote, it would be for KZ2, because that game is very underrated.

Dragon Age is looking like a solid contender, and my personal GOTY.

Dragon Age v. Modern Warfare 2 I reckon. Uncharted 2 gets a third place.

I doubt Dragon Age is going to win even if it deserves it simply because its primarily a PC game and those always get shafted for some reason. I think U2 will win. Even though I myself wasn't the worlds biggest fan of it

Machinarium for me. It'll never win, but it's arguably one of the best adventure games in a *long* time.

wtf? Dragon Age???

Demon Souls is probably better than that game.

Oh I forgot... Its the only contender that isnt on the PS3!!!!

Im sorry, but my lems tracking device isnt as good as it used to be.

gamerlifegrace

I would personally say Dragon Age is better than Demon's Souls, and DS is one of my favourite games this gen.

It's fantastic.

But my point is that UC2 hasnt vanished from the earth. It should definitely be a lock for GOTY.

So people can't say Dragon Age is going to win just because it's also on the 360, and PC?


That's good logic.

I'm about an hour into it. Early, but the impressions it's giving are that of an older Bioware. Epic.

Oh, I gotcha.


I only said it'd win because of the review since Gamespot decides the actual GOTY around here. Fanboys can go vote for the Gamespot User's Choice or w/e :P

I'm surprised. 3 pages in, you're the first one to mention this. :P

But damn, GOTY is completely irrelevant to me at this point, because all the likely ones are all on the ps3. :D

Don't really need to play it to judge whether or not it will get GOTY at Gamespot, it may help, but not completely necessary. You kinda use your gutt feeling, along with educated guesses (e.g looking at MW2, you watch videos, previews, play the original MW to get a grasp of what the gameplay is like, the developers track record etc.).

There was World of Warcraft in 2004. I guessing it'll be Dragon Age or UC2.

I haven't but it's what THEY think of it that matters. I just think that it getting 9.5 and the fact that it's something new gives it a good chance.

Dragon Age. Not only has it been far and away the best game of the year thus far, but BioWare deserves credit just for having the dragon-sized marbles needed to spend 5 years and god knows how many millions of dollars on a game that has no business existing in the modern game industry.

Not talking down the game, but if you're going to take it to the UC2 -type argument...DAO isn't anything new either. :P

It's definitely refreshing though, there hasn't been a dark fantasy game for a long time, especially one on this spectrum of quality.

I suspect Dragon Age Origins might win :otreedoor

After reading the review I agree it has a strong shot.

It's funny because only weeks ago I kind of assumed UC2 had it in the bag.... been a great few weeks for gamers!

I'm not saying its bad or anything because i have yet to try it, but thats how people tend to feel about every new game they get. Give it some time to see if it holds out.

id have to say uc2. naughty dog did a wonderful job with this game, putting every single bit of detail of animations into the characters. the voice acting was wonderful. the gameplay is tons of fun, with lots of actions, platforming, a little bit of stealth here and there, just alot of variety in general. the additional online feature is pretty much addicting! most of the settings in the game are beautiful!!! especially near the ending of the game OMFG! story wise it was great! this game really has alot to offer. overall, uc2 is one of my favorites this gen along with valkyria chronicles and demons souls. heres to hoping it'll get goty.

uncharted2. but CODMW2 and DA is a strong contender. could go either way with these 3 IMO.

___gamemaster__
\that's my feeling as well. Dragon Age is actually a lot of fun. i like how Bioware was able to have a PC-styled game work pretty decently well on the consoles (in my case the PS3). i'm only beginning the tale and i'm only starting. happy to say that almost all the trailers you'll find out there happen actually pretty darn early in the story. so i can't wait to see where this adventure takes me. I know this will be blasphemous to some, but i loved Fallout 3 and didn't care for Oblivion at all. and yet... this is the first storied epic fantasy adventure that has me gripped. but i'm sure i'm gonna love Modern Warfare 2, and i really really liked Uncharted 2.

Why Forza 3? It might be a good game but the fact remains it's a racer. Would have to be a pretty slow year for a racer to win GOTY. If you're going by GS review then Dragon Age origin PC has a better chance. I think Uncharted 2 probably has the best chance though. I bought it because of the reviews after not being very hyped for it and I have to say I was very impressed. One of the best games this gen.

Racing games target a very specific audience and naturally has less appeal in the general population. This vote, I would say UC2.

honestly ive never enjoyed a bioware game but understand why people love them so i got no problem with dragon age getting alot of love. i might give dragon age a shot though, the setting intrigues me. BTW i love star wars and rpg's so youd think id like kotor but i never got into it. haven't played mass effect though.

play Mass Effect that is what turned me into a fan of Bioware. oe of my absolute favorite franchises. you can get the first for really cheap (like 10 bucks) at Gamestop. pre-ordered in full the sequel. main story may be on the shorter side of RPG's, but damn if it ain't a really fun one i thought.

maybe, i love rpg's and they are the one developer that everyone seems to love but i just cant get into any of their games. I'm gonna try mass effect though, i bought it a while back but have put it in the backlog of rpg's behind fallout 3, persona 3, persona 4, valkyria chronicles and more recently demon's souls.
