Actually, if you look at the poll, CoD4 is winning, which sucks because it definitely wasn't the best. I think Crysis was the best and is my favorite. Crysis is right behind it, it was winning earlier today, but for some reason CoD4 is winning now.

It's certainly a great game (AAA in my book) but I don't know if I'd name it my personal game of the year.

Its a stunning visual odyssey, with an interactive storyline that isn't linear like other games, and its a RPG that doesn't send you to pure bordem like other games.

It's GS 8.5 only shows that its completely underrated, but its not surprising since this site thinks Super Mario Galaxy is the best game of the year, which is a joke :lol:

You just described an RPG... It's just like The Witcher. I thought The Witcher was better, imo.

it takes people recognition first to recognize a true game winner, and Mass Effect is that game.

Some of you never heard of "the People" being used before.

Dwayne Johnson formerly known as "The Rock", back in the day, before he took on the title as the Great one, or World Champion, he was "the People's Champ", now look he's a hollywood superstar.

Some of you folks that aren't recognizing Mass Effect for it's revolutionary greatness will someday see your folly, and realize your mistake.

Mass Effect isn't going anywhere its a great game now and itsonly going to get even better.

I had no problem with the controls and there was nothing boring about the shooting unless you were playing on Insane where it takes forever to kill anything

How was the shooting boring? That doesn't make any sense. Were you even motivated enough to play the game, part of enjoying a game is having the urge to play it to begin with. :|

The People's GOTY - Mass Effect

c_smithii

So it's the People's GOTY despite COD4 and Crysis being way ahead in the Reader's Choice votes? In fact, it's not even winning Reader's Choice for the RPG genre. The Witcher is about 10, 000 votes ahead.

And what is so revolutionary about it?

It's been out****d in visuals by several games this year.

It's story is very formulaic as far as Bioware games go, it can't compete with Baldur's Gate 2 either.

It has technical issues as well.

It is in no sense the People's GOTY. Not in popularity, not in innovation, not in overall quality. Please, stop pretending your opinion needs to be forced on everyone.

Yeh, if anything I think Mass Effect was a little overrated. Bioware is great, and Mass Effect was a great game, I don't believe it will make anyone drool on the floor from it's recycled mechanics.

Does anyone who played all games and don't have a reputation for being a biased whore reckon the KotOR games were better than Mass Effect?FrozenLiquid
I'd say its personal preference. I'm not a huge Star Wars fan (I feel the SW licenese really held back KOTOR) and play alot of shooters, so I found Mass Effect to be a significant improvement over KOTOR. But for a more traditional RPG fan it would be very easy to blaze through Mass Effect in 15-20 hours and never bother with many of the sidequests (seeing as how they are generally very similar). I certainly enjoyed Mass Effect more than KOTOR, but I wouldn't say its a significantly better game.

I agree, I loved Kotor, but in all honestyI find ME to be a funner game to play. Had they worked on some of the nit picking flaws I have with the game I could have easily been a significantly better game.

lemmings play not people. bioshock owns that.ff7isnumbaone

Whoa now, whether or not Mass Effect is the peoples game of the year or not, its certainly alot better than Bioshock. Bioshock has absolutely no replay value whatsoever, the combat is clunky, you cant even die (hurts the game immensely), and Bioshock also features one of the worst endings ever for a story driven game.
