huh...I went to sleep thinking this thread will be ignored, I didn't expect such a meltdown.
The whole point of me making this thread is because I felt Naughty Dog did exceptional work on Uncharted 2 and it deserves every sale/accolade etc it gets. Usually I roll my eyes at people who rant about sales and what not (I guess I forfiet that right after making this thread) but I feel the right credit was needed where it was due. U2 is an exceptional game and worthy of untold praise, I just have a feeling that everyone will overlook it for game of the year awards and give it to the likes of MW2 and ACII just because they feel that more people will agree with those games instead of something not as popular.
By popular I mean, MW2 isn't even out yet and people are marking it as GOTY when we've yet to see it in full action, not saying MW2 is gonna suck or anything, usually I don't like FPSs but even I can tell that it's gonna be good but at the same time I feel folks will just give it GOTY without much thought if any of this makes sense. MW2 and the likes all have history and a wider appeal (i.e being on multi-consoles) as a result they will be more likely to get bigger look in for GOTY than Uncharted 2.
I actually forgot that U2 Europe sales only counted 2days instead of 5 or whatever but I have a feeling that in future months to come when people have the daily sales arguements, U2 will be brought in and people will say it didn't break 1mil in the first week and "forget" it wasn't a full week every where which I think is a little sad but there we go.
Undoubtably the lifetime will be more deserving and so on but still, I was still hoping for that 1mill "first week".
Regardless, as I've said, it's gonna be my personal GOTY and I guess on the long run that's all that matters.
