somwhere along the line, this guy forgot what gaming is all about

fun

if you can have playing a game then it's done its job

That's fine when you're talking about whether or not to buy a game, but both NSMBWii and Splosion Man were fun, so obviously you have to base GotY off more than "which game is fun"

 

I do disagree with him on his points other than originality.  From what I've heard Splosion Man's online coop is a nightmare of lag, and comparing 100 levels to 77 does not take into account the length of the levels whatsoever.

Fun isn't a switch. A fun game can be more fun than another fun game.
