So Bioshock is a very good (if not spectacular) game marred by some technical issues and a lack of difficulty. That leaves few GOTY contenders this year, and i can only think of two that have they hype and the awesomeness to pull it off.

So what do you pick? Mass Effect, Mario Galaxy or something else? if it's something else please enter what you believe it will be

Crysis, S.T.A.L.K.E.R, World in Conflict, Supreme Commander and God of War 2 are some candidates.

jeff nitpicked and made a bad review on purpose to get hits for the website... It's good for bussiness to give a game lower scores than everyone else. Bioshock is still GoTY imo.

Too bad reviews don't make a game GOTY. Bioshock could still win, and it might.

I keep stating that aswell. I don't understand the hype for mass effect at all. Bioshock, I understood, was one of the finest fps ever made, but mass effect? I doubt it comes close to the same quality oblivion was, I actually think it would score around 7.5-8.5 range. No way this game is getting AAA: due to me getting bored out of my mind at the e3 07 presentation shown at gamespot. Halo 3, and Bioshock deserve so much hype, because they look fun, mass effect just doesn't at all. I'm feeling like it would be a real boring experience.

I'm also hearing how mass effect gameplay is so innovative, when it is a text game with good graphics. I don't usually bash games that hard, but I find nothing appealing to mass effect.

Bioshock could still get GOTY. System Shock II scored an 8.5 and is heralded as one of the 10 greatest games of all time by many publications including this very web site.

Duke Nukem Forever FTW.

But, seriously, I think BioShock still has a pretty good chance for GOTY. But, if it doesn't, I have no idea. All the games I'm excited about will probably be flopped by Gamespot, so I don't know...

Bioshock may not be GOTY at Gamespot but it will definitely deserve to be. The real contenders are like they always have been...

Bioshock, Prime 3, Mario Galaxy and Mass Effect.

Bioshock still has a shot of being GOTY. GOW2, Mass Effect, Crysis, and Metroid Prime 3 are also good canidates.

I still think it's gonna be a toss up between Bioshock ang Mario Galaxy.

Game scores really have nothing to do with GOTY.

Bioshock or Mario Galaxy imo

looking at other notable games:

Crysis - I don't think there will be enough besides graphics to get this game the win

Rock Band - the price may prevent it from winning

Metroid Prime 3 - I think it will get the same thing as Twilight Princess of "gamecube game + wiimote control = great, but not GOTY great" from gamespot

Phantom Hourglass - might actually have a chance, but its still hard to imagine a handheld game winning

SSBB - gamespot has never given a SSB game AAA

Edit: Mass Effect has a decent chance at winning

Imagine if DNF was surprise released a few days before gamespot GOTY was announced, and started getting 10s everywhere, and Gamespot gave it a 10 and Game of the Year, beating BioShock, MP3, Halo 3, Crysis, and all those other GOTY hyped games.

Bioshock scored a little higher than I thought, but I don't think it's going to get GOTY. My guess is still Halo 3 (now that GTAIV is coming in 2008 ).

Jeff is not the only person at Gamespot who decides what will be GOTY. It could easily still be Bioshock IMO. Though there are too many good games coming out yet to make a firm decision yet.

1.Crysis-No contest.......at all.

2.Uncharted-would be the best looking game to date if not for crysis.

3.God of War 2-makes last gen still look like a competitor

4.Ratchet and Clank-platformer with forty hours of gameplay?

5.Bioshock-Followup to one of the best games, ever.

6.Mass Effect-Everything about this game is stunning.

If you mean on gamespot, it will probably be some non hyped game that nobody really feeels for that jeff felt like giving a perfect score to boost hits to the site. Everywhere else maybe Bioshock?

Being "easy" is a horrible excuse to deduct points. No one else seemed to have that big an issue with it.

Not everyone likes a difficulty that kicks them in the balls whenever they play. But that's a personal preference. I like to hear the story and shoot things. Puzzles are fine but I'd like to get to the end eventually. When I want a challenge, I'll play people online.

Bioshock still has a huge chance. So far no one has rated it below 9.0

AncientDozer

My thoughts exactly. I've never understood why so much stock is put into difficulty on this site.

I think Bioshock is gonna win it but now I am concerned because of the low rating, but Halo 3 has to be considered and alot of people dont even give it the time of day when it comes to GOTY.

Bioshock still has a chance at GOTY but it isn't as big as before. I predict Mass Effect will be teh one to take it this year.

And Platformers pwn all other genres. Ok, that is an opinion, but why would SMG not be nominated? It will be pure fun.
