Since games of the year are decided by the editors of different consoles, GTA IV has a bigger chance of winning it.

BTW, MGS4, great as it is, IS the same as MGS3,2 and 1, only prettier.
And GTA has a 4 point higher metacritic score.

I hope LBP wins it, but I'm afraid GTA will take most awards.

This kinda proves you haven't played it. Being prettier isn't the only difference. This time, the game is actually has decent controls. I'd call that I large improvement.

 

Valkyria Chronicles is the Game of the Year for me.

Actually I HAVE played the game, albeit not longer than say 4 hours. The thing I really get annoyed aboutis that even the slightest criticism (it's not even really criticism to compare a game with its amazing predecessors) will get people on the defense about this game.

By no means I'm saying this is a bad game at all. We're in a GotY thread and than I think that innovation should play a big role. And yes the shooting is way better in 4. But you're still playing the same game. That's why I think it won't win the major awards. Maybe I'm wrong, we'll see.
