GOTY 2009

Indeed, although I'm unsure if it's a 360 exclusive or multiplatform. A UK magazine did a preview of it which leads me to believe multiplatform. But Bethesda has been known to favour the 360 in the past and the fact that this game features a lot of online play with your mates suggests that their definately looking at Eggbox live since it's “better” than the psn…

Don't you guys think you should play Uncharted 2, CODMC2 and Ratchet and Clank before you start saying they should win Game of the Year?

As far as predictions go:

PS3 GOTY 2009: Uncharted 2 (Ps3 exclusive, multiplayer, ability to make movies, better graphics)

GOTY 2009: CODMC2

PS3 GOTY 2010: GOWIII

GOTY 2010: GOWIII

Some of us have played the Uncharted 2 multiplayer beta Thickbrow which gives a good indication as to how the singe player will play like. And the beta was in May so they listened to the feedback and made even more improvements upon the game. So thats my reasoning for Uncharted being GOTY.

As for Ratchet and Clank, it probably won't get GOTY year because it doesn't appeal to those who only play one or two types of genres . But having played very other Ratchet and Clank game and looking at the improvements they are making for this one (more clank, free roaming through space, radio in you spaceship!!!) I can safely assume that this will be one hell of a game. Maybe a contender for PS3 GOTY but overlooked by the mainstream press for the overall GOTY.

What is CODMC2????

It didn't allow me to edit the post….but it looks like you edited yours.   Did you had nothing worthwhile to contribute and then deleted it to make your smart ass remark?   Get a life dill hole.  Its obvious i meant codmW2.

As far as playing the beta goes…it was just a multi player beta of an uncompleted part of the game.  Before saying something deserves goty you should probably wait until its released so you can play it.  Or wait till the end of the year so you can try every game.  I kinda started ignoring what you post after you said that Fallout didn't deserve GOTY.  Go read the 1000's of articles and fan sites if you are looking for proof.

GOTY should be broken up into game categories anyways.  Hard to compare genres of games.

Theres no need to be a dick to Miiitch, calm the hell down man!

Yeah playing a beta is playing an unfinished game, but as was the case with the Uncharted 2 beta, it was bloody fantastic! And with the 3-4 months of time they've been able to improve upon the beta it'll be even better. That's why I'm saying it's a GOTY contender, anyone who's played the beta will be able to testify to that point!

Maybe I should wait till other games come out and play them. But as I've said if you'd have read my comments, Ratchet and Clank is a GOTY contender as it remains consistantly fantastic and the amount of things their integrating make it a strong competitor! IMO MW2 will be a great game but not GOTY material. I can't wait for it, but as with a lot of FPS games they tend to get quite samey. Assasins Creed 2 could be another one to make GOTY if they sort out the mission infrastrucure!

Fallout did not deserve GOTY because there were tons of other incredibly good games that deserved it!!! Lets see, there was Bioshock which is one of the best games this generation! And of course theres Metal Gear 4 which again, one of the best games if not the best game this generation! Before you speak to me about whats a better game, make sure you've played everything else on the market, Fallout doesn't compare to games like the ones I've just described.

it was thickbrow being a dick he just retaliated ninja and fallout should be GOTY cos the game has hours of gameplay really good graphics and was completely original sure but if you play a game with a negative mindset your not gonna like it so rather than say i gotta walk miles to do this quest take your time getting there an explore the large and quite brilliant world they made with loads of hidden things like a crashed UFO with the alien blaster and camps of super mutants where you can free people from its not linear like do this quest its do what you want and maybe do a few quests in between

Fallout was fantastic, but for the first 3ish hours it felt like i was playin Oblivion
MGS4 shoulda got it imo
