Since Mass Effect and Uncharted came out we now can start seriously talking GOTY.

I made a poll for it too here... mind you I didnt put games but only Systems cause there's too many.

So feel free to pick a system OR join the Group Bet in SW Bets. But please do so ONLY in SW Bets.

.

Gamespot GOTY 2007 (Group Bet)

(0) Assassins Creed (360/PS3/ PC):

(1) Bioshock (360/PC): Timesplitter14,

(0) Call of Duty 4: Modern Combat (PC/360/ PS3):

(1) Crysis (PC): anshul89,

(0) God of War II (PS2):

(2) Halo 3 (360): Agentfred, im_different,

(5) Mass Effect (360): MigElite, Sir_Crocidile, cyborgjak427, ---OkeyDokey---, astiop,

(2) The Orange Box (360/PS3/PC): Wartzay, super_mario_128,

(9) Super Mario Galaxy (Wii): FireEmblem_Man, Weslii, tbone29, SuperMario_46, Wanderer5, tman93, BlazeDragon132, Gh0st_Of_0nyx, luigigreen,

(0) World in Conflict (PC):

Losing teams must wear an Ownage sig created by the winning team for 1 month. The ownage Sig cannot be anything against the TOS. If none of these teams win and a game is picked that's not on our list then all teams will not lose However, all teams must then post in a thread created by KCPP2B praising the winning GOTY that is not listed in this Group Bet.

It has to be either Mario, Halo 3, or Orange box as they scored the most. It won't be Halo 3 because that was over rated anyway, no way in hell is that game a 9.5, average single player and seen it all before multiplayer. Orange box is a compilation of games, not really fair to award that game of the year as Half life 2 is two years old.

Mario will take it easy.

Since Gamespot has been a PC centered site at the beginning of it's life.

Crysis would be a shoe in,

the way Jason Ocampo Splooged all over the game in the video review.

I don't care if Crysis is the best looking game it still has some dumb AI issues, the Orange Box is nothing but a 3-pack value of a last-gen port with 2 expansions, Portal, and Team Foretress, I liked Bioshock but I don't think it lived up to what I expected to be, Assassin's Creed is too repetative, and Halo 3 is just a generic FPS compared to Crysis. This is why I voted for Super Mario Galaxy, because it's the true sequal to SM64, it has great graphics for a low powered console even if it not as good as all other console and PC games, gameplay is very solid, and it's Mario!

Mario GOTY! Mario for life!

Vote for Mario and he will give you a fun time.

The Wii does have the best game in ratings technically, but it would be a shame if the 360 doesn't have one of its games get it with all the great games it got this year. Just like PS3 should have the GOTY game next year

Mass Effect was sure to be GOTY, but, I'm sorry flops do not deserve GOTY status. Super Mario Galaxy all the way, baby! ;)

Its funny that no one voted for PS3...

I say Halo 3, for the record..

why people voting for Mass Effect, every game thats under a 9 cant be in that list right?? or are the rules changed in gamespot with the new review system..

I haven't played Super Mario Galaxy but I have played Halo 3. It's definitely GOTY worthy.

Call of Duty 4 says hi to all those titles. Seriously COD 4 is GOTY material and i think it should deserve it. unfortunately knowing LemmingSpot, they will give Halo 3 GOTY even though its an overhyped piece of garbage thats the same as halo 2.

I honestly think this year it will go to SMG. The game not only exceeded its massive hype, but far surpassed it.

I hope it's not Mario Galaxy. It's a superb game but it's not better than MArio 64 or Mario world(best mario game) and it's too nostalgic for it's own good. I've played better games, like Call of Duty 4 and God of war 2. Unfortunatly since it's Mario it will probably get it.

Galaxy is actually surprising me on how good it is. I like Crysis but there's some things that irk me about it, and I think TOB needs recognition but a compilation winning GOTY doesn't seem likely to me.

GOTY in my opinion will be one of the following four titles: [ Assassin's Creed (originality), Crysis (technology Warehouse), Halo 3 (financial reasons), Super Mario Galaxy (mind blowing gameplay)]

Of course, my vote goes to SMG and I don't have to state why (I'm confident you can come up with your own reason), however, Halo 3 MUST NOT win the award, it will be just too cheap from Gamespot, I mean fine, you gave the game enough credit with 9.5 and all, but GOTY, please no !!

PEACE^^

I really hope that SMG gets GOTY, but realistically speaking, it will probably be Halo or Crysis.

Mario Galaxy took everything we knew about platformers and twisted it in all different directions. Crysis broke the barrier in terms of what could be done with graphics. Halo 3 was.....Halo 3. It was a solid sequal...but it really didn't do anything important for it's genre.
