Fat Princess is not a strategy

Yeah, it seems to be classified as Action, but there are definitely strategy elements in there. Guess it depends on how IGN defines it.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Around the Network

Murasama: The Demon Blade is an Action-RPG not an Action-Adventure.



What?

You mention KH honorably for best portable game but not DS?

Best Platformer 2009 - Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack in Time
Honorable Mentions: New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure

Best Sports Game 2009 - Fight Night: Round 4
Honorable Mentions: Madden NFL 2010, FIFA 2010, Tiger Woods: PGA Tour 10

These two seem really odd to me.

I know most people haven't gotten to play New Super Mario Bros. Wii yet, but it seems pretty obvious that it is going to be an amazing game.  I just don't see it losing in its own category when it should have a shot at game of the year.

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 is the best sports game of all time.  I see no reason for it to lose this year.

Your list loses all credibility once u mention best RPG. Demon's Souls is by far the best RPG of the year and a very strong contender for me as GOTY!

With out a doubt, Demon's Souls is one of the best RPG's ever made.

Other than this, tho, your list is good.


dude you need to calm down. you just have to face the fact that demon's souls wont make GOTY.

it cant compete with the two ONLY competitors (Uncharted 2 and modern warfare 2)
