[QUOTE="Verge_6"][QUOTE="scratch-o-hey"][QUOTE="Verge_6"] Oy vei. SOTY is NOT similar to GOTY by any means. Why would MW2 earn a title that's ten times more prestigious than one its very similar predecessor couldn't even nab? Make sense now?

nope it still doesnt. My point is, just because mw1 didnt get shooter of the year doesnt mean mw2 doesn't have a chance. And SOTY DOES have similarities in being a goty. If a game is soty, that means that that game is the best among the shooter genre which means it is a goty contender. soty and goty of course has its differences, but saying its not similar "by any means" is not true. so by your logic:, uncharted 2, mw2, killzone2, and AC2 have absolutely no chance of getting goty because their predecessors didn't get awards (AFAIK), right? see, it doesnt make sense...

I seriously cannot believe this. SoTY is so vastly inferior to GoTY that it isn't funny. And I guess me laying it out like that wasn't simple enough. Here, let's try this; OP asks if MW2 can win GoTY MW1 Didn't win SoTY SoTY isn't as good as GoTY MW2 is extremely similar to MW1 Therefore, MW2 is extremely unlikely to win award that is vastly superior to an award its predecessor did not win. Those other titles you mentioned are a hell of alot different than their predecessors, especially KZ2. Simple enough? Good, I'm glad we had this little chat

how can you say mw2 is "extremely" similar to mw1? LOL but that's beside the point, you shouldn't judge a game because of it's predecessor, is it really THAT hard to understand? oh and MW1 had more competition. plus, mw1 got GOTYs on other website, so saying it doesn't have a chance at goty is funny. So tell me, if not MW2, what are your goty predictions? please dont tell me odst LOL

[QUOTE="Verge_6"][QUOTE="scratch-o-hey"][QUOTE="Verge_6"] Nice elaboration you got thar.

i assumed i didnt need to since it was common sense. but oh well here goes: you can't say mw2 couldnt be goty because it's predecessor didn't get a similar award. killzone 1 was bad, killzone 2 was good. dmc 1 was good, dmc 2 was bad, etc.

[QUOTE="scratch-o-hey"][QUOTE="Verge_6"]

As pointed out, if MW1 didn't even win SOTY, what change does MW2 have of GAME of the year? :lol:

Verge_6
that's flawed logic.

[QUOTE="scratch-o-hey"]

[QUOTE="MorbidToaster"] Most TVs don't have DVI input, and have bad response times. For gamers, response time is everything, dragging that number down from 10ms to 2ms is a big deal.

Another thing to note is that TVs usually have lower resolutions than monitors, no matter what size.

Oh, and never buy a Dell/HP monitor.

MorbidToaster

Really? What's wrong with Dell and HP monitors? What brand of monitors would you suggest then?

Samsung monitors are my favorite, and the higher end monitors usually come with a built in TV tuner as well, so you get both with the greatness of a monitor too. Dell and HP monitors just tend ot be mediocre for the prices they ask, although I've heard good things about the new Alienware monitor.

samsung, note taken. Thanks! Also, thanks to everyone who posted here, now I understand the difference. So now I'm just deciding what brand to get since Dell and HP aren't good.

washd123

actually depends. Dell contracts them out to actually sony sometimes so the higher quality monitors are exactly that higher quality more so than pretty much anything else.

hp idk about

either one youll pay a premium though

so what brand would you suggest?
