It seems that everyone on this forum talks about Fable 2 and Fallout 3 for GOTY but no one talks about GTA 4. Sure Fable and Fallout will be both amazing games but i think GTA 4 really perfected its craft to an extent where it is almost unsurpassable. please post your thoughts, thanks

I'm still playing the game, but I still think Fallout 3's chances for GOTY look good.

GTA4 is a blast but i prefer rpgs so my personal GOTY is going to be an rpg. So far it's between Lost odyssey and Tales of vesperia.

True most people have probably gotten bored of it by now and prefer the newer games.

GTA4 is a great game but I really think if you play it a lot, it starts to lose it's luster. I had a blast playing it but I think some other games will pass it for GOTY.

GTA4 will definitely get GOTY despite many bitter GTA fans all of a sudden after April 29th :roll:

on more thing, dont forget about the DLC that will just add to this epic game. This game deserves GOTY because its nothing we've seen before in gaming (detail and everything else is off the charts).

GTA IV is GOTY, everything else is speculation. MGS4 is the only other close contender

I would vote for GTA 4 to be GOTY.That was the only game i enjoyed throughly. I would also add Far Cry 2, COD:World at War and Gears of War 2 to be close contenders.

That would be true for now, but you can't throw everything else not released out of the picture.

yep I agree GTA 4 GOTY..

Easily the best 360 title ive played since Mass Effect..

I cant beleive how dumb some people are.. People over on IGN have already done there user rating for

Fable 2 and in there review saying as to why it should get a 10 yet not even playing it..

GTA 4 will smoke Fable 2 and Fallout 3 for GOTY.

In my mind, I don't think GTA IV should be GOTY, but a contender? Sure. I'm hoping Fallout 3 or Gears of War 2 will pull it off.

GOTY sorry it may have tons of detail and amazing voice acting but its the first GTA ever to become old in a few months its even had a price drop to £19.99 and i could barely sell mine on ebay im afraid gta iv is the worst GTA i have played and look at SR2 it may not be detailed to hell or polished to perfection but its fun and gta 4 aint.

I don't think GTA IV should be GOTY, too much repetition. For me, Little Big Planet, MGS IV and Gears 2 look much better contenders.

Absolute stupid argument that GTA 4 gets old quick compared to its predecessors (San Andreas)

Dumb comment.

GTA 4 has more gameplay then Bioshock by far.

Even more then Mass Effect.

Mass Effect 56 hours I completed doing as much as the side quests as possible.

GTA 4 - 64 hours story complete at abit over 70%.

Your little spell casting nonsense Fable 2 has only 10-15 hours of gameplay so ive read.

Just cos you cant whip up 200hours like you can in San Andreas doesnt meant its rubbish..

as i said... dumb comparison.

As for the comment on Saints Row 2 being better hen GTA 4.. your dreamin.

I got SR 2.. and GTA 4 owns it.. SR 2 is a poor mans GTA.

I definitely wouldnt want GTA4 for GOTY. It was overhyped, and underfun (yes I just invented a word!)

The old GTAs were a joy to play, whether doing the missions, or just messing around. GTA took away so much of the fun by trying to inject some realism and depth into a game that used to benefit from not having any. Where's my pefect movie-style car handling and fast-paced driving action?

The only good addition to GTA4 was the drunk-driving. The rest was a huge letdown.

I didn't think GTA4 was anywhere near a 10 and there are alot of people who agree. GTA's score has probably drawn more fervor and debate than any other game released. Its odd because its a multiplat so you''d think fanboys would get more attached to the score of an exclusive and go crazy with that.

So yeah, for alot of people GTA4 is a game that was highly rated but far from GOTY (oxymoron).

To me Gta was never game of the year. Yes if you make game of the year about sales then it would but, on terms of best storyline graphics and game play i would give it to mgs 4. BUT I havent played gears of war 2 yet so that could be changed as november 7.

Even though it is a great game I don't think it will win GOTY. It might be a contender but I think there are better games out there that are coming out this year. Also MGS4 I think looks like the big GOTY or Fallout 3.

Not to mention the quality of missions, not being everyones b*** but actually being the leader. The amount of side missions, Insurance fraud...fight club? how is gta even comparable? Get a frickin Head and you know that this isnt know poor mans gta...its a smart mans gta....idiot...no way for goty...neither of those fit that mold...

True, we have to see how Fable 2 and GeOW2 turn out. Nothing else can compete.

I like it how some say its boring NOW but when they first got it it was heaven to them. This I hear a lot on gaming forums after a couple of months when people do get it the first time its cake but then after its trash. Put that "its boring" to you away and agree that this game is a marvel and deserves GOTY. Those developers work their butts off to create something we've never seen in gaming. Not only is it detailed like crazy and actually makes you feel like your finally part of a living breathing city in a game, its very lengthy and has a good story and everything. Give credit where credit is due.

GTA 4 is forgotten cause the game is so boring, it got bad graphics, bad sound, bad frame rate, bad control, bad gameplay, bad city, bad vehicle, bad game overall, u will know how horrible the game was if u played alot of good games!! i give GTA4 WGOTY award ( WORSE GAME OF THE YEAR!!).

In my own defense I have been ragging on GTA4 before it came out, when it came out, and after it came out.

People are now just starting to agree with me :P

I got bored of it after two months. They made the city much smaller, and it's just not as fun anymore to go run around and do stupid crap. They tried to inject realism in it and it failed miserably. It was a marvel in detail, but an average sandbox title gameplay wise.

Everyone can say that FO3 and Gears 2 will get GOTY but they're not even out yet so it's all just speculation.

GOTY as of now? MGS4.
