Personally i think genre bias in GOTY awards is as bad as the film equivalent. Regardless that its on Wii, the genre of horror doesn't really get credit, not like platformers and fps do.

Horror games are not a genre. They are sub-genres of action or adventure titles mainly. Also, Resident Evil 4 swept GOTYs and Resident Evil 2 got quite a few back in 1998 also. Regarding movies, the best have gotten recognized through nominations(The Shining, The Excorcist) and if you really think the rest deserved to win best picture, you seriously don't understand what the awards are they give out leading up to that.

Regarding the Silent Hill game, it looks interesting. I might check this out in the future.

wut?



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
