Yup. It's true. Because I feel that Zelda:Twilight Princess is getting ahead cause of the popularity of legends like Ocarina of Time and Majora Mask etc. Oblivion is a truly greatest RPG as it perfectly fulfills the defination of Role Playing in one word- Freedom.
Gears of War is a great game but I have to agree that it isn't fair sometimes that Action shooters being most of ours favourite genre just steals GOTY.:?.
But OY We love Action games. But we all are literally obsessed with action shooters and GoW is with stunning graphics too.
FFXII would have won if there was a category called The Boldest Step to a Series. Because as an FF fan I am used to emotional development between characters. All to the contrast FFXII is an excellent game with a political minded story8)
Anyways. This was my view. I know I know that Gears is going to win and Zelda is going to become second but for once I would be happy if either IOblivion or FFXII would pip Zelda to second spot as Gears is far beyond the reach.
