This game gets so much hype and it looks amazing...but that Gamespot review was pretty negative. I think this is going to flop now, which is a shame. I'm betting 7.5 - a good score but not the GOTY that people were claiming.

Blast Works for the Wii scored an 8.0 , so I really don't see how something like LBP would do any worse.

What does that have to do with this? :| Or are you bringing fanboyism into this by saying that PS3 has a lock for GOTY?

I'm thinking fanboyism. I'm 75% sure Fable 2 will win a few GOTY awards, and Gears 2 is sure to win one. But that's because of their franchises being so sucessfull.

Well the preview wasnt that bad.And even if it does get a bad score at GS that wont change anything.GS is worst when it comes to rating.

dude your sarcasm suck ass. Its not even ridiculous to assume that LBG will be a flop, its a brand new game thats coming out and like every new game its under scrutiny. Comparing this to MSG4 is not even relevent, the later has the fourth installment of an award winning series. MSG4 is a well grounded game, LBG is new. Stop making stupid as remarks.

Well it did get a ten and was one of the biggest games releasing this year, So it is possible for it to win GoTY.

GTA IV got a 10, and is 2nd best rated ever at Gamerankings, and was 10 times bigger release than MGS iv, so it is hinting more? Then he was 100 % wrong and I correct. thank you.

Seriously stop you guys are pathetic. Were talking about LBP here not MGS4 or GTA IV, in the end their both good games and it doesn't matter who wins GOTY beacause this thread has NOTHING to do about it.

I doubt Gamespot reviewers care about Gamerankings that much... And it was a big release but so was Halo 3 last year, but SMG beat it...

All I said was, its possible... Not that it definately will win GoTY...

Who cares about Gamespot scores when LBP is clearly a fantastic game? Oh right, this is System Wars.

I'm just jealous that I won't be able to play it. :(

I'll play devil's advocate for a second and say that GTAIV does indeed stand very good odds of winning GOTY. But, to write off MGS4 as not even standing a chance is pretty goddamn ignorant on your part.

You won't be able to play it yet you've already deduced that it's a fantastic game? You're right, this really is System Wars.
