Have these guys heard of that new game console...

Crap I forgot, what was it called again?

Oh yeah, the Wii.

Are any 2008 Wii games really GOTY material? SMG and TP definately were. I can't think of anything this year.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Mario Kart Wii are the big ones, obviously.

World of Goo has been mentioned by quite a few people as well.

In my book, Wii Fit deserves a nomination as well.  It is arguably the most influencial game this year (in regards to the general public).

While I'm at it, lets see what else I think is bad with the nominations.

No World of Goo in the Art section.

No de Blob in the Sound section.  No SSBB in the Sound section.

Wii Fit only once in the Innovation section.  No de Blob in the Innovation section.

Mario Kart Wii only once in the Multiplayer section.  No SSBB in the multiplayer section.

de Blob in the Indie section.  The reason I have a problem with that is because Blue Tongue hasn't been indie since 2004.

Finally, six nominations for GTA4 in GOTY.  Really?

I know I'm a little biased, but these guys take bias to a whole other level.
