Game of the year?

[Fez]

For me, in terms of quality, Super Meat Boy or New Vegas.

In terms of 'advancement of the industry' then Kane and Lynch 2, is showed us just how awesome the year is, acting as a mirror. For that it deserves to be remembered.

[Chippiewill]

Minecraft.
StarCraft 2.
Black Ops.
Halo Reach.

[Fez]

Minecraft.

Would be mine too, but it's still in development and the whole 'narrative' thing that Notch has been talking about hasn't been added yet. That been said, it will probably be auto-GOTY when it's 'complete'.

[Matthew]

in terms or what ive had the most 'fun' with, id go for new vegas tbh

Ok then:

Best incomplete indie game of the year then :D

[Lost_Addict]

Mass effect 2
Halo reach

both are near perfect games ;)

[Stephen!]

Mass Effect 2... if you can count it as 2010.

[Fez]

Yeah it came out in January 2010.

[Chris]

Probably black ops tbh.

[Stephen!]

Yeah it came out in January 2010.

Don't they normally include games that came out in early January as the year before? Or is it the other way around? (Late December releases classed as the year after).

Nope.

You mean "fiscal years" right? Well that's different depending on the publishers, and EA's 2010 fiscal year began in December 2009.

They is odd.

[Stephen!]

I guess i'm going nuts. lol.

What if a game comes out on like Dec 15th onward? I don't think it's fair really since it has not had enough time to prove itself... Like BC2: Vietnam for example which came out today.

I think their 2011 fiscal year actually starts in February.

They're a really, really weird company.

[Frodo13.]

Red Dead Redemption

[dbgtz]

heavy rain has to be mine, it broke expectations and brought a new form of gaming to alot of people

[Eoin247]

Cataclysm for Wow , even though it kinda just came out.

[Wig44.]

New Vegas, I'll be surprised if it isn't.

[Jam]

A World of Keflings.

[Neil]

Cataclysm for Wow , even though it kinda just came out.

I wouldn't agree that expansions should be included normally but cataclysm is a huge improvement on the game, although I don't think it can win it really. xD


A World of Keflings.

It's not THAT good. o.O


I think it'll have to be Red Dead Redemption, although I haven't played anything on the PS3 from this year yet so who knows, I would expect GT5 to do well.

[Yupt]

Red Dead Redemption tbh

[Lindsey]

StarCraft 2 (:

[Ajthedragon]

blops for me, didn't really find anything truly eye-catching this year

[TonyBest]

I'd have to say Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood

[piperc]

I must Say. Halo Reach :]

[Homosexual]

world of goo on the iPad :]

[samsaBEAR]

Red Dead Redemption, Alan Wake or Halo: Reach for me

[Nemo]

red dead redemption for meeee

[Jam]

Minecraft. Set too many records and is so different to most other games for it to not get GOTY.

[Sureall]

mw2 or fifa 11 OR f1 2011

[dbgtz]

minecraft is in beta so i dont think it technically qualifies for the chance :P


mw2 or fifa 11 OR f1 2011

MW2 was released last year

[ben]

starcraft2

[Judge Judy]

Heavy Rain. Waited years for it and paid off (first/second platinum as well yay). It's different to always playing shooters, sports and racing most of the time. :P

[redtom]

Mass Effect 2 for me, nothing else really stood out. Would say New Vegas but too glitchy and although good its not much better than fallout 3.
If I got Red Dead I would probably say that.

im trying to get plat in that (well not atm cos im on god of war) and i think i messed up the perfect crime trophy, which is probably the worst one to muff up LOL :P

[Lost_Addict]

After completing Assasins Creed Brotherhood, i now have to up my 2 way tie to a 3 way tie ;O

[Chris]

Mine is now AC: Brotherhood without a doubt. Great game.
