Well this wasn't G4's opinion. This was a competition based on user votes. G4 themselves picked Fable 2 for GOTY. :|

Not really surprised. It's a good game that a lot of reviewers really loved.

I liked it a lot more after I added some mods, but that's how it is with me and any Bethesda game. :P

it's the same 3 or 4 voice actors for every character. Almost all of the little kids are voice by the same person.

This is how G-phoria always works. Next year you may see Dragon Age Origins, Forza 3, Borderlands, and other fall games on the show.

I agree 100%. I never understood why they don't do G-Phoria near the end of the year like all the other gaming publications.

anyway I gotta agree about fallout 3 being GOTY in general.

It's the only game form 2008 I still find myself playing regularly. Although that might be due to the DLC.

This is how G-phoria always works. Next year you may see Dragon Age Origins, Forza 3, Borderlands, and other fall games on the show.

If you ask me it's a pretty stupid way to do a GOTY ceremony when you're nominating games in two different years. I guess it's just for the sake of being different.

This made me laugh with DoW2 and E:TW out.

Just goes to show why popularity =/= quality. FO3 best voice acting? It was almost as bad as oblivion FFS.

09 goty with 08 games? k. But Fallout was terrible, story was mind numbing and the combat wasn't that fun. The perks were the only cool thing really.

People only give a damn about GOTY when it's actually done at the end of the year. I don't care about this "G-Phoria" crap.

I've said it b4 and i'll say it again. Fallout3 (pre dlc, haven't played dlc bc have ps3 copy) was a dissapointment compared to Oblivion. Oblivion just had tons more stuff to do with more factions more side quests and more combat variety (vats is awesome though but becomes a crutch). Fallout3 wasn't all that long lasting (beat it in 40 hrs and felt like i saw all i had to see, while in oblivion played over 100hrs felt like i was barely scratching the surface). I played Motorstorm PR for more hrs and don't get me started on the original ending to Fallout3. Fallout3 is a great game but not goty.
