That doesn't even make sense, you were saying how awful MW2 is and now you're saying it has awesome reviews, I'd love to see these "x2 better reviews" I mean lets see, Metacritic, Borderlands (360) got 86, MW2 got 95, I'm not maths genius but I'm pretty sure that isn't double.

Also there really isn't far between MW2 and Borderlands if you think about it, both have leveling, guns with all sorts of attachments, both are FPS games, they are comparable purely because Borderlands is an FPS with a little RPG on the side, Borderlands is better, MW2 is generic, Borderlands deserves GoTY, MW2 deserves a little praise but doesn't compare as far as I'm concerned, CoD4 already had the spotlight now a new game needs to come in and have some time.

I'm gonna pop in here and say that you are just a little biased towards borderlands on the fact that you have been following it for ages. It doesn't deserve goty. I think mw2 is better, but I still don't think it deserves goty. However, basing things on reviews is a pretty poor way to go about comparing games. You should judge it on what you like. Borderlands, yes, new concept etc, but I'm pretty bored of it and am only like level 20. Mw2 I've played on everyday since I've had it and it gnerally a great game

And also, just because cod has had a goty, doesn't mean they're not allowed it again.. That's like saying an actor shouldn't win an award again.. If the games good, it would win, not just so another game can be in the spotlight..

I've been following CoD games ever since the first one so what ever your point is then it's pretty invalid because I've been following CoD games for clearly longer, the fact that MW2 is just CoD4 with different levels and skins is exactly why it shouldn't have GoTY, the fact every CoD game is just a reskin of the previous now is just stupid, Borderlands deserves GoTY more, it's one of the more inovative games this year, you got bored of it at level 20, fair enough but I know people that got bored of CoD before getting to rank 10, GoTY has nothing to do with preference sadly, obviously MW2 is going to take GoTY this year but only because of the fanbase, not because it's the best game this year, obviously just because CoD has had GoTY it can get it again but that does not mean it deserves it, GoTY should be changed so only new IPs get it, not games that have a huge fanbase built over a few years and thounsands of biased morons that can't see how generic it really is.

I like MW2, I like Borderlands, MW2 is good and sure it is good but really, what is so good that makes it worthy of game of the year?

Very well said Neil.

On another note, Uncharted 2 deserves game of the year. I know you (Neil) hate Uncharted to death and I wasn't much of a fan of the first, but hot damn is the second one a treat.

Strong Bad deserves game of the year.
