Come on man! seriously! LOL.....That is a good list but this is how it's going to go. Team Ico makes games that constantly go under the radar so Last Guardian is out of the picture. Zelda Wii might come out and might be good, but since when has a Wii game won GOTY? The same goes for SMG2. GOW 3 will be a GOTY contender but its only true shot at winning is best action title or best PS3 game. |
Ironically the last time Wii won alot of general GotY awards was when SMG released. Your whole basis for thinking ME2 has a shot is that the first was great and you know the second is getting reviewed high. SMG2 is the sequel to the highest reviewed game of this generation, it has more than a shot.
Personally I don't see ME2 winning it, because it's too early in the year and will be overshadowed by later releases. That's why he says it is a darkhorse, because it is rare for a game to release so early in the year and be remembered enough to win GotY, that's exactly the reason he brought up Silence of the Lambs.
