[QUOTE="Badosh"]1. It did flop. It was the worst reviewed main series Halo. Both at metacritic and Gamespot. R3FURBISHED

A game that is hyped AAA that scores a AAA rating (in this case a 9.0) is not a flop, no matter how it is spun.

AAA is AAA is AAA.

[QUOTE="Mozelleple112"]Didn't say otherwise. I'd take what ever they pick with a pinch of salt, as I have for the uhh, half a decade.Stevo_the_gamer

Note sure Spike plays the Gamespot Metagame...lx_theo

I wonder how many other employees on Gamespot rank Journey as their GOTY. Kevin Vanord does. I would love to watch fanboys cry if that happens.

I haven't played any of the nominees for GOTY aside from Journey and there is no way in hell I'd vote for that. I voted for The Walking Dead

[QUOTE="_Cadbury_"]Oh lawl, Journey in there but no Halo 4. Lems must be fuming. JohnnyCageMK

Oh yeah man fuming over a award that Snooki will present :lol:

Agreed. Gamers are just jaded and need to lower their expectations year in year out (IMO). The latter is coming from a gamer of 30 years.

The crowd won't even know what it is lol

They can shove their award up their A@!!!!!:x Spike and gametrailers are a joke. The best console game that had the best graphics in 2012 doesn't even get nominated!

You do know that standards change. A 9.5 two years ago is more like a 8.5 now.

better luck next year bro:)

funny how cows don't seem bothered that downloadable games are in the list with full retail games, despite trying to make out there's a huge difference in the way both are reviewed whenever the topic comes up in SW.

I wonder how many other employees rank on Gamespot rank Journey as their GOTY. Kevin Vanord does. I would love to watch fanboys cry if that happens.sammyjenkis898

Except it would be the wrong download game. Trials Evolution at least offers the content and replay value of retail games.

I bet you won't say that next time an exclusive XBLA game gets a high score! :lol:

I'm kinda surprised to see The Walking Dead there. But kinda cool I guess, was hoping to buy it during the steam christmas sales._Cadbury_

Considering how "real gamers" hate and ridicule gamesQTE games I am shocked as well. However I have played two chapters and the games have life. BTW so such thing as a hardcore gamer..

[QUOTE="xhawk27"]

And the reason Halo 4 isn't on that list? :|

But Trials Evo is a motorcross physics based game (played it). You and I both know despite it being fun with loads of options and content it ain't gettin nominated as GOTY.

Use Metacritic and I won't discount any game at all.kuraimen

They nominate Dishonored? i cant believe other than no surprise they also nominate bad games. i bet Mass effect 3 will win. VGA is corrupt and always pick anything that is mainstream or popular moreSNIPER4321

agreed.

Damn not a list I was expecting TBH. No max payne and Halo 4 is surprising. And while I haven't played AC III yet I actually hope Journey gets it.
