I like World of Goo quite a bit, but Braid was better. A good 2nd choice though.
I would also have chosen Fable II over Fallout 3 by a nose for RPG.
GTA IV is over-rated. Good game, but rewarded for immediate impact of the game versus the game itself, in my opinion. Game of the Year could have been Fable II, Fallout 3, or Little Big Planet, and I think all were better. I wouldn't have argued with Gears 2 either, but I have trouble rewarding games with the multiplayer flaws it has.
I like the selection of Boom Blox for Wii. It's my favorite Wii game of the year, in that it tries new and interesting things and is made for that system without a doubt.
And good on Burnout Paradise - well deserved if only for the support they have given that game.
And I agree with being underwhelmed by the premier trailers.
Can't we all just get along and play our games in peace?
