Modern Warfare 3 is crowned the "Shooter of the Year" at Spike VGA -- the Oscars of the video games. Apparently, gamers like Modern Warfare 3 more. :)

Actually, he's right, as the Ocars are a joke as well. Too many inner politics in these award shows to make them worthwhile.

BF3 still has better MP and the only reason MW3 won is because it's Mainstream and the VGAs are a mainstream award show just like the Oscars.

News at 11:Modern Warfare 3 has a larger fanbase than Battlefield 3.

Doesn't necessarily mean one is better than the other.

Honestly, I'm happy that Activision is winning. They don't use draconian methods to control their software and punish their legitimate customers.

So many better shooters this year, To bad the John Madden football of FPS's get's more acclaim then it deserves. Come on people when are you going to wake up and see that Activision is shoving the same game down your throats year after year. Stop throwing them your money and demand they develop a better product. Because you know Activision is laughing at you behind closed doors.

You do know that the VGAs are not voted by online people anymore? They have a panel of 25 voters from various publications.

Check the metacritic, BF3 on the PC has a higher score than MW3 on the consoles, the best best versions of the games.

And Gears 3 is better than Modern Warfare 3 in every possible way. Single player is better, Multi-player is much better, Gameplay is better, Graphics are better, Online community is better, More of a challenge, AI is better.

Modern Warfare 3 was alright...... Sadly after the offline segment is finished the game is useless.

Trolling is trying to annoy people. Why am I trying to annoy people? I am not. I am merely announcing the news that Modern Warfare 3 was most enjoyed by gamers this year.

Because the awards are voted on by an appointed jury, consisting of game journalists.
Oh and Playboy.

The games aren't chosen by people online. Considering how BF fanboys completely downvoted MW3 on metacritic, does anyone really believe MW3 would have won if they allowed those same people the opportunity to pick BF3 over MW3 in Shooter of the Year?

They have judges instead, which honestly makes sense since people are idiots and you can't just turn it into a popularity contest.

I believe a worthy parellel is the "workplace of the year" award in my country.

Basically it's a large scale interview endeavour to gauge where the happiest employees are.

Catch is that a company has to pay one of two fees, depending on it's size, to participate and as such, your prestigeous reward merely reflects that you had the happiest employees out of the companies, who felt the PR was worthwhile.

For reference, Mcdonalds took one of the awards this year in Denmark, how do you rate a McDonalds job on your top 10?

Funny how the least evolved shooter of this entire generation got the award over a shooter that can actually be called a true sequel in comparison. Just wait until the next CoD, it will probably be the same copy and pasted BS from the last games and score GoTY awards as well.

You do know that VGA this year was a comedy show. Laughable, to say at the very least. And as a mod said, they have "judges" and not worldwide players.

Gears 3 was better than both Battlefield 3 and Modern Warfare 3, really. It's campaign was actually good, actually longer than five hours and actually had co-op. It actually supported 4-player for it's extra co-op mode that was actually good. And the competitive player was a significant improvement over it's predecessor.

Actually, it was chosen by a panel of 25 judges whom all had to play the nominees before voting.

Plus you really don't think BF3 wouldn't win? Its not like BF fans got all riled up to completely downvote MW3 on metacritic or anything. Oh no they did, which means an online contest probably would have gone straight for BF3.
