It'll definitely be a contender for GOTY but I'm sure it will be forgotten about by critics because of Uncharted 2 and Modern Warfare 2.z

Luckily I am buying all three. Actually, I'm getting Batman today :D

Definitely with all of the high scores it's been getting it'll be a contender. I'm not sure what else this year will be able to compete with it. I wasn't all that impressed with the demo but I know a lot of people are liking it and I'll probably get it at some point. I love MW and can't wait for the second one, but I don't know that it's going to get the critical acclaim of the first one. I think it'll score in the 9 range, but I don't know that it'll be a shoe in for GOTY. Next year is going to be SO difficult for reviewers and the people that vote on this kind of thing. Borderlands still this year, Dragon Age: Origins, Alpha Protocol, there's stuff coming out but from what people are saying Batman may have it.

After playing it for at least six or seven hours last night, I would say it's definitely a contender.

Genre-wise, yes; Assassin's Creed II may surpass it in quality though. But I don't think it will be able to hold up against the other titles overall that are coming out this year.

Looking at the year 2009, I say yes. It has to go against Modern Warfare 2 though.

It's getting nines across the board. I'd say that puts it in the running. It's probably the highest rated game of the year so far.

It will be in the discussion, but its too early to tell. Modern Warfare 2 and Dragon Age Origins are probably the odds on favorites for most. Those who gave the GOTY to Bioshock instead of MW1 two years ago will probably give it to MW2, so I'm sure that game will be the GOTY, unless Infinity Ward somehow manages to blow it. AA really kicks ass though. Its the best game I have played this year, even better than Prototype.

If it's anything like the demo...then I hope not, or it's going to be a lousy year for video games. Is Modern Warfare 2 eligible for this year, or is the November release date too late?

maybe best of genre, even then i think assassins creed 2 will beat it out.

its definitely in the top ten, maybe top 5 of the year but i doubt it will matter once some of the holiday releases come out.

halo will not be game of the year. that is a joke. maybe if all the 13 y/o's on xbl had their way it would be though.

Can people please stop associating Halo with young kids.....there are alot of adults playing Halo and addicted to the Halo world....just because you hear alot of kids on there doesnt mean its only kids playing this game

It will definitely be a contender, but I don't think it will win. MW2 will probably win across the board, although it is too early to tell. Licensed games, even the rare good ones, are hardly ever given GOTY. I don't thin Riddick: Butcher Bay won any major GOTY awards.

Of course, it is also important to remember that this year has a weaker lineup than the past two years. Most of the great games are coming out in 2010, such as Alan Wake, Halo: Reach, Mass Effect 2, and Fallout: New Vegas. This year only has a few guaranteed hits, like MW2, Forza 3, Assassins Creed 2, and Uncharted 2- a weaker lineup than years past imo.

I think Forza 3 has potential to take the award but I think people are really ignoring some of the RPGs like Dragon Age and Borderlands. I think those have a big chance too.

Think about it, theres still Forza 3, ODST, Uncharted 2. And this year we've already seen Resident Evil 5, Killzone 2, inFamous, and GTA Chinatown Wars which will proabably recieve a nomination but definately not win.

Awesome game. Hard to say if it'll hold up to the games we got coming from now until the end of the year though. All I have to say is finally somebody nailed a Batman game. The only way they could improve upon it is having all of Gotham City to run around and being able to use your vehicles. Though I haven't finished it yet so who knows maybe you do get to rock some batrides.

Killzone 2 was released this year? Wasnt it released last year?

I think the only reason that it is not a automatic winner for GOTY is the fact that Assassins Creed 2 and a few other 3rd person contenders are going to hit later in the year. However I am giving it a 9.5 out of 10 for me and if the DLC they come out with is cool then a bump to the top!

played it for 12 hours straight... told myself to give it a rest... got to the main menu, seen that I haven't even touched the challenge rooms... played for another 3 hours... came online, just finished writing a blog about it & reviewing it... it damn sure better win some awards... I love this game...

Definitely a contender. This is the best game I've played in a long time. I didn't even particularly like the demo, but the game is amazing.
