Now I guess we will have to see with the campaign, im sure this GOTY candidate will do just great in that regard as well.

If reach isnt GOTY i would have lost faith in gaming jornalism and would disregard any opinons they would spout. Halo reach will be the definitive halo title it will be the best shooter this year.

Reach will hardly be top dog this year, too many other games deserve it just as much. It will be in the race, but not win.

Gears is irrelevant for now (that comes later :P). Reach is just sounding better and better each time they reveal something - this game WILL be truly special. Even if you don't like Halo, got to admit it's sounding very very good - especially in this wave of shooters.

If it doesn't win GOTY, it'll be because of Portal 2. But overall, Reach looks epic.

I'm the opposite. Firefight>Horde from what I played (which was around 50 hours of each) and new Firefight>Horde and Beast Mode combined. I'm a huge Gears and Halo fan, no bias. Just how I see it. I mean all the customization seals the deal for me.

Beast Mode Activated 8). I'm renewing my XBL Gold for Gears 3 :D. I just hope they beta test this time! I wouldn't be so quick to write off other MP games in 2011 (see Killzone Trey). As for best MP of 2010, it's gonna be a close one IMO. Then, on Gamespot for example, it's separated into competitive and co-operative. For competitive, we have Bad Company 2, Medal of Honor, Halo Reach, and Call of Duty: Black Ops amongst others. I'm not so sure that Bungie will out-do DICE's two games this year.

Halo 3 had customization and still didn't win best Comp. MP against Call of Duty 4, also Crysis won best shooter that year. I do know that Reach will be front-runner for these awards (and better than Halo 3), but the talent, and competition is really stiff in 2010.Also, Medal Of Honor is supposed to have customizable weapons, and characters (even beards).

Reach will win GOTY by far because all of you seem to forget that the critics that give out these awards completely forget games from before June by the time the end of the year comes around. I do love Halo, but the only reason ODST got anywhere near any awards is because it came out at the end of the year and was fresh on people's minds.

Uh... I have a feeling you're going to eat your words when MOH comes out. The MP is developed by DICE and looks like a mixture of the best parts of Bad Company 2 and MW2 (also uses the Frostbite Engine). What I'm saying is that competition is fierce this year, not that MOH will outrightly trump Halo Reach (or any other games).

Isnt halo some very VERY slow paced casaul shooter for the xbox or something that really didnt do anything other than show you can make a slow paced shooter on the console.

If i want competitive multiplayer ill play some QUAKE 3

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRV0tclxXMQ&feature=related

Just fast forward to 1:25.....ah do i hate the lowered skill ceiling of "modern" shooters, so lowered so the masses will buy them and think there playing a hardcore shooter when they dont know the meaning of the word.

just a thought.

LOL because they obviously didn't improve upon Firefight from ODST and left it totally unchanged. :| Halo haters logic always seems to be the "HALO 3 SUCKED WHAT MAKES U THINK REACH WILL B BETTER LOL" Barely better than Halo 3? Heh, you have a Gears ava, you should know about quick sequels that play almost exactly like the original hahahahah.

my logic is the whole series seems like multiple mods of the first game with halo 3 brining the graphics update.

Well, your logic is flawed and irrelevant, especially with Reach coming out.

Yes, matchmaking is confirmed, along with customizable skulls for firefight, and customizable sets/waves etc., enemy A.I. traits and player traits, and Brutes and Hunters are back along with 2 new weapons confirmed in the firefight videos: a laser designator which launches a mortar strike wherever you paint with the laser and a sort of replacement for the brute shot called the Concussion Rifle, only it has plasma rounds.

If it's barely better than a 9.5 game, then it's one hell of a game. Sounds like a possible GOTY to me. Firefight is just icing on the cake, everything about this game is looking top-notch and way ahead of any Halo game before it.

It's faster than most console shooters. A slow shooter would be something like KZ2, with its weighty physics. On the PC, you can play Tribes which makes any other shooter look like a slow game.

Halo Reach will win best multiplayer. I think it will be far more robust than either Bad Company 2 and Medal of Honor(the only major threats). As for Shooter of the Year it's going to be a matter of beating the PC version of Crysis 2. If Crysis 2 is consolized it's Reach, if Crysis 2 is the juggernaut we expect it to be on PC well in that case Crysis 2 is winning.

I think it will win best multiplayer and shooter, assuming those are both awards. I don't really follow these things. As for GOTY, it will definitely be in the running and I think it has a real shot at winning but there's a lot of good competition this year. It's hard to say anything with complete certainty though considering I haven't even played the game--outside the Beta at least.

It is impossible to confirm GOTY and even being a higher scoring game doesn't warrant a GOTY award like Demon Souls last year.

Remember all the games that have already come out such as ME2, SMG2, GOW3, etc.

I think some of you are underselling the competition if yah think Halo Reach is winning GOTY. My halo fandom aside it's still halo. I mean yes it's fresher and plays better. Yes it's the Halo game Bungie should have made instead of what they did with Halo 2 and 3, but it's still Halo. Between it and Mario Galaxy 2 the "familiar" games if you will Mario Galaxy 2 is going to be a better odds on favorite. Little Big Planet 2 has sooooo much potential in just concept that I hardly see Reach winning a battle against that for GOTY if LBP2 delivers. We still have Red Dead Redemption and Mass Effect 2 that came out already that made a strong case for themselves. The Competition is going to be stiff. I think it'll be good enough that something as kickass as Bayonetta or the spectacle that is God of War 3 are either going to be severe underdogs or not even nominated.
