Howdy

Well, we reach the end of our noms and votes, for on Friday - we reveal the winners of everything and anything... but for the time being... let's dig in!

Each of these games has either made an impact on the gaming community, expanded a genre or has been generally awesome.

There is also a PS3, Wii and 360 exclusive title in the mix - the ones that are currently set to be GOTY for each console... or maybe different... please choose honestly... if you went over to a mate's house and played Littlebigplanet and wanted it in bed.... or not... please do vote it here - and don't let your own fanboyism or console get in the way.

As such... let's begin

Call of Duty World At War

Reason: I hope this wins both this and the Disapointment award, as it is frankly the middle ground, and shows both good and bad - but mostly good. Plus it's COD, same fish - just different scales.

Fallout 3

Reason: I... I... love it now. With a recent trophy/fix patch, us Playstationers can experience Fallout 3 as it's supposed to be... and that is a damn fine 'in yer face' action and heavily detailed apocolyptic world - can't wait till Fallout 4!

Left4Dead

Reason: It's on the PC and 360, and it was nominated for both GOTYs for both platforms, not 'cos there ain't any games for the two things - it's just probably one of the greatest zombie games... ever...

Dead Space

Reason: Because it made me literally piss myself... I don't play a lot of horrors obviously...

Far Cry 2

Reason: I thought it'd be a slimmed down FPS in a overblown crystal diamond engined Africa, turns out to be one of the funnest games of the year

Grand Theft Auto IV

Reason: IF THIS WINS, I WILL KILL YOU ALL, VOTE FOR THIS AND YOU ARE CONDEMNING YOURSELF TO HELL OR AT LEAST HELLSING, AS IN... A PERSONAL DINNER WITH VAN HELLSING, OR.... you can vote for it if you want... but I will be very sad...

World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King

Reason: In all honesty, I haven't tried this - I had to get the opinion off of a friend... after it took him a couple of hours to log in: he found it to be a completely new experience and also said this

Littlebigplanet

Reason: Such a small studio project has flourished into my personal game of the year, because there is nothing else like it. If it wins, expect Lara Croft to come around to house and sex you silly! A personal gift from me to you...

Fable II

Reason: I haven't played this, my friend hasn't played this, my 360 fanboy mate hasn't played this - but it just sounds so godamn awesome... no wonder none of us can't find a copy... under £40...

Mario Kart Wii

Reason: A Mario with a Kart is a Mario without heart... badum tish..

I don't know. I'll need to think about this. I want to vote for CoD:WaW, Dead Space, LBP, Fallout 3 and Mario Kart Wii. I can't choose just one of them!

fable is amg kl

Fable 2 from that list, as great as some of the others are Fable 2 was the only one that kept me interested really, LBP is a great game but just gets boring fast and some of the others I haven't played or I generally think they suck e.g. Dead Space.
