I know i'm gonna love God of War 3 a lot.
but with a landscape chok-full of AAA titles (no matter the platform).
yeah... good luck.
every fanboy of every platform is gonna shout from the mountain top that they have the best, when nobody realizes that everyone has very rock solid games comng to them.
Saying any game is going to get GOTY during the year starcraft 2 is realeased shows pure ignorance....makes ya wonder if people even realize what planet there on...and the "household names" comment???!!! what are you 10 years old? starcraft is known by millions and millions and millions more poeple than god of war...
Do you really think that weak story lines score a slot on best ever lists?[QUOTE="NAPK1NS"][QUOTE="Stats_"]
What annoys you is the fact i don't find GOW compelling.
Tweaked = snapped in half? No ...
If Dante's Inferno can use the Divine Comedy as a starting point, and flesh it out for gaming reasons it stands to have a much stronger story then GOW.
GOW has a weak story, it's just better then it's competitions. I/e DMC, NG.
It should be hard to beat.

Any list that can have GOW's story near KOTOR's story kinda speaks for itself ... And not in a good way.
That's a shame, that list was almost perfect but it had to be ruined by San Andreas, Bioshock, MGS, and God of War, when they could have been easily replaced them with Thief: The Dark Project, Day of the Tentacle, System Shock 2 (Bioshock having a better story? Lol) and Vampire Masquerade: Bloodlines.

but if StarCraft 2 doesn't, which is of course a possibility, I'm curious which game wins over it, because winning over StarCraft 2 for GOTY sounds very exciting.
I just hope that this one doesn't have an amazing first level and then the game goes downwards after that. Both GoW games I thought topped out the first level.. which shouldn't happen
[QUOTE="-Tretiak"]those games arent well known enough to win GOTY.. not saying they will be bad games but GOTY 90% of the time go to "household name"games LMAO, Starcraft 2 not well known enough? Have you been living under a rock?Not with StarCraft 2 and The Old Republic coming.

The series is not popular because of its sex. They are a small, silly part of the game and not something you remember after you complete the games. The violence is fantastically over-the-top and lends itself to the grand, wide scale of the game. The violence is signature to the series and draws many people in, but can't the same be said about games like Gears of War? Speaking of using fowl content to draw in audiences, how's you music taste going?[QUOTE="NAPK1NS"][QUOTE="Stats_"]
Where is the depth? The combat is not as good as DMC or NGS
It has an interesting story I'll give it that, but with acry babie of a main character ...
It is admittingly button mashing at it's finests. Popular cause it's not stingy with the blood, gore and sex. Which add nothing to the game.
We should instead ask for a sequel to Heavnly Sword, that game had both narrative depth, and depth in its gameplay.

You claim to know something of my music taste?
Lol, you can't argue about the game lacking depth, but youc an insult my music taste?
Well done sir, well done.
Off topic: Haha, I just looked this Dizzee Rascal up, I have to say it's pretty good. Better than most of the crap that comes out now a days, at least it's not some older song with some hip hop beat laid over it like most of these hacks trying to pass off as original. On topic: God Of War 3 will probably not be GOTY, but I bet it'll score at least a 9 out of 10.[QUOTE="-Tretiak"]those games arent well known enough to win GOTY.. not saying they will be bad games but GOTY 90% of the time go to "household name"gamesHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA WOW i dont know what to say. You clearly have NO idea what you are talking about. And in any case, how the hell is God of War a household name, the other games both sold less then 4 million copies each.Not with StarCraft 2 and The Old Republic coming.

man.... there are too many AAA titles to say definitively down to one. we've got God of War 3 Final Fantasy 13 Gran Turismo 5 (but racers don't count anymore these days...) Mass Effect 2 Star Craft 2 Mario Galaxy 2 Zelda Wii Metroid : Other M Halo : Reach (which i've been reading is gonna try and change the 'game' quite a bit - maybe Natal anyone?) Bioshock 2: Sea of Dreams and those are all games from ESTABLISHED franchises. who knows... we might see a new IP just take us by storm when it releases in Q4 2010. Agent may be releasing during that time and we haven't even seen anything on it. To say definitively that one game or another is game of the year for a year that hasn't even begun is pure and simple fanboy. 2010 is NOT the year of the PC/PS3/360/Wii it is the year of the gamer. Now i gotta go back and save up my nickles and dimes. i'm gonna be broke next year. lol.I highly doubt that.As a PS3 exclusive, Heavy Rain will be better. Just stating that since you brought it up. Of course, though, GoWIII will have the hype and love, since it is that kinda title, but I'll take Heavy Rain, Alan Wake, and Halo Reach over GoWIII, although I'll still buy it. It'll be great.

Who's last? And I think that it's still a pretty good list considering it still has some games that weren't that popular, I'm sure the creator of that list genuinely thinks all of those games have great stories, I was merely commenting that he could have played those other games and I'm sure he would have changed his mind on some of those games.i will prolly go preorder this today to get the demo but im not excited about this series at all... at the end of the day i just don't think being at the top of the heap of "smash buttons and play qte's" genre is a very big deal...
maybe this will be the game that changes my mind
Those will also be good games but God Of War 3 just takes gaming to a whole new level.. I honestly havent been this wowd by a game this gen since Gears of War 1 for the 360.. I mean yea Im still getting Heavy rain and halo and all but God OF war 3 will win GOTY next year.. Its just that good, I was expecting to just play a upgraded God of war 2 in HD or something.. NO this game re invents adventure games[QUOTE="Kennysolidsnake"][QUOTE="BioShockOwnz"]

BioShockOwnz
No. Heavy Rain and Alan Wake do more to move gaming and narrative further than GoWIII, or at least the E3 demo, which is what's available.
Dont know much about Heavy Rain.But Alan Wake ? Its just another resident evil man. Its like a horror max payne !! Whats so special about it anyway ??I just literally finished playing the God of War 3 demo just minutes ago and i am speechless! WOW, In my 20 years of gaming (im 25) I have NEVER EVER played anything so epic and just so.. magnificent. As far as single player this game KILLS any game this gen I mean this is what NEXT GEN truely means. I got the demo by simply going to gamestop, pre ordering it and they gave me a voucher code.. I RECCOMEND if you can, go right this second.. yes if you can RIGHT THIS SECOND, pre order it and download it.
I was overwhelmed after playing this demo.. Forget Heavy Rain, Gran Turismo 5, Halo Reach, Alan Wake.. Yes those will be awesome games but God Of War 3 takes gaming to a whole new level in terms of music, atmosphere, jaw dropping graphics, perfect and seamless gameplay.. I guarantee this now that God Of War 3 will win GOTY next year guaranteed and i know you will probably roll your eyes after reading this but if your not truely impressed with this game after playing the demo then you either need help or dont like gaming.
I played it yesterday, its starting to feel stale[QUOTE="BioShockOwnz"][QUOTE="Kennysolidsnake"] Those will also be good games but God Of War 3 just takes gaming to a whole new level..

And it's not a psychological horror, it's a psychological thriller.
Nothing like RE, as RE isn't psychological, nor is it much of a thriller.
The God of War series has always been EPIC in terms of presentation, I expect nothing less in GOW3, tho I think the graphics are a bit overhyped(better than Uncharted 2? I don't think so). Anyway, the only thing I don't find top notch is it's combat system atleast in comparison to DMC3/4 and NG nevertheless it will be a fun game.
Not with StarCraft 2 and The Old Republic coming.

Starcraft 2 not well known?
Is any of the GOW games been played 11years after its release?
Is any of the GOW games been played in tournaments ( in korea,china and europe dont know about US)?
Is any of the GOW games a national sport?
Is any of the gow games been played for money because there are professional players that are getting paychecks with 6figures to play starcraft

LOL... I won't say what everyone reading your post is thinking, I don't want to be modded... but WOW... if anything was ever sig worthy.... this is it.... LOL
on topic... I expect to thoroughly enjoy GoW, but Starcraft II & Mass Effect 2 will probably be my GOTY, next year.
It's the same demo that was on at E3. Just go watch it. It looks sweet, but it's nowhere near incredibly awesome enough to justify that level of gushing. :|Ninja-HippoMaybe its gushingly awesome when you play the demo :P

Well the E3 demo definitely made it look like a crappy Resident Evil game. Until we see other gameplay trailers that show otherwise, I wouldn't hype it too much.
[QUOTE="urdead18"][QUOTE="Kennysolidsnake"] those games arent well known enough to win GOTY.. not saying they will be bad games but GOTY 90% of the time go to "household name"gamesCait__SithDude, Starcraft is a national sport in Korea. That is true, top starcraft players can make up to make 6 figures USD a year. It's pretty ignorant to say that Starcraft is not well known enough. Unless your really young because Starcraft came out a long time ago.

LOL. Just wait til StarCraft 2 launches, buddy.
ok if your talking about japan then yea your right but star craft 2 wont sell well in the US.. All other RPGs with maybe the exception of mass effect and flopped hard sales wise in the US on the 360.. and the same is also true for the PS3, i dont even think any RPG on the PS3 has broke a million units sold in the US.Oh my... He thinks Starcraft is an RPG :lol:
How is anybody supposed to take you seriously if you post stuff like this? Starcraft is huge.
And no, not all RPGs have flopped sales wise in the US on the 360. Oblivion? Fallout 3? Fable 2?

not only StarCraft 2, but I think SW:TOR will do just as well if not better (at least in term of pure profit) comparing to God of War 3.
It has the Star Wars Universe, the KOTOR followers, the Bioware fans, the fact that it's a MMO which comes at the time WOW maybe declining plus the fact it's a sci-fi setting MMO, all these factors may add up and eventually make SWTOR a very well known and successful game.
Those will also be good games but God Of War 3 just takes gaming to a whole new level.. I honestly havent been this wowd by a game this gen since Gears of War 1 for the 360..

Alan Wake is the only game I wish was also on PC atm but no way is it THAT higher of a level.. I mean if anything Luigi's Mansion is like the blueprint to that game.:P
