I dont know why, but it seems that gs is baised towards the ps3, and shows much support for wii. Maybe it was the number of awards the wii games won or something idk...i mean its a good console and it has some good games but SMG for goty? Idk about that...I mean it really is just another Mario game after all

No matter who won GOTY, GS would of been biased but atleast they got the GOTY right in my opinion, plus you obviously have not played the game.

You're original. Hell, how are they biased with Twilight Princess and Metroid Prime 3? You should have seen the uproar about that. They aren't biased, just seem to have unusual fluctuating standards.

you have obviusly not played the game simply for that comment "its just another mario game rite?"

the game would have been great with bob the ugly banana in place of mario, but the fact it is mario and all the nogilistic stuff brings it to the next level

i think gamespot has VERY little bias towards some games, not consoles. But, i have agreed on most stuff they review, but recently a lot of other ppl seems to be losing their respect for this site

What he meant is that no matter who got the GOTY, people would have said GS is biased.

i have played the game, its a mario game in outerspace, whats the big deal, sure it is fun but i wouldnt consider it goty material, mario is getting old anyways its the same damn formula over and over again, in my opinion its overhyped

same thing halo 3 did but it got what it deserved right? People agree including gamespot that its the same formula again

My bad for my mispelling biased in the title

But you can't call Gamespot biases unless you are calling most everyone biases......So far SMG has got the most GOTY this year and is the second highest rank game on gamerankings

I betting someone did not watch the video......They talk about that in the GOTY video. How it did not matter it was a Mario game. How it could have been anyone so yes if it were a Sonic game it would still have won.

My thoughts exactly. On another note, if Sonic had been in Mario's place - it definitely wouldn't have gotten GotY, because it would have been developed by Sega. :)

Duh they're biased. Their reviews arent suppose to be taken as "they are official, so they are right" its just another review, cept more indepth, about the game. It's just more support for you to see what others thought about it.

lol ok you guys dont have to hate on me, im just saying though, just like i thought twilight princess was no where near as good as ocarina of time, gs still regarded it as the best zelda game of all time, and they take every zelda game in high regard, and i do agree, zelda games ARE fun but it is the same thing over and over again why is that everyone makes a big deal over nintendo,

yes everyone is biased i agree, and dont hate on me, its just my opinion, and i too am biased, but it seems that ps3 does not get its fair share on this website

Because the review I read said nothing of the kind not even close. Heck they said more about the DS one than the Wii's.

GameSpot's unusual reviews are what makes System Wars fun. If we used a site like IGN or GameRankings for our scores, then hardly anything would ever flop.

apparently, if the scoring displeases a person, the scorer would have to be biased.

Wow TC, it shows as much how you know about these forums and GS itself. Last year Gears of War won GOTY with a 9.6 score and Zelda:TP scored an 8.8 and sheep called GS biased fast forward to today it is now a different story.
