The chance of 2 games in 1 year scoring 96+ on metacritic is very low. Based on pure reviews across the board it should walk away with more than Halo 3's 149 GOTY's. Who knows. It deserves it. It is the toughest year yet for releases. 2007 was quite tough. 2008 wasnt to bad. 2009 was a poor year for games in terms of potential GOTY. But 2010 has loads of games that could get GOTY. Whether any of the games get above a 96 meta is a small chance. We shall see I guess. |
If you're taking the PS3 or Wii or 360 into account...you can't be further from the truth.
|
Fixed. 
|
Fixed again.
I thought all 3 had horrible years comparative to past years. So I guess if you want to believe one still had a good year, then they all still did 
|
Nah, that was the PS3's best year yet. Sure, 2008 saw MGS4, Valkyria Chronicles & LBP but it didn't have the likes of:
- Flower
- Uncharted 2
- Killzone 2
- inFAMOUS
- Demon's Souls
Among other things. To me, it was 360's worst and not because the 360 is bad, it just couldn't compete with 2008, and certainly not the Godly 'Year of the Xbox 360': 2007!
|
I think you missed my point. I wasnt saying there werent good games. Just not a great year for what is considered GOTY contenders.
Certainly wouldn't ever include: Flower, Infamous and Demon's Souls as a GOTY contender. U2 and Killzone 2 were alot better games.
|
Umm...why is Demon's Souls NOT GOTY material?
|
Basically this is not about personal opinion. This is about what websites and the like are going to give GOTY.
Firstly I would never expect any game that gets below 90 on meta to be crowned GOTY.
Demon Souls got 89. Thats a good score. But not GOTY potential. How many GOTY games do you know that have metaed lower than 90?
Flower got 87 and Infamous 85. These are not GOTY contenders. Good games but nowhere near contenders. If they are classed as contenders, then my point stands. A poor year for GOTY contenders.
This year is likely to se 7 or 8 games all contending with 90-92+ on meta.
|
Just need to ask you something.
What was GameSpot's Game of the Year from 2009? Beating out Uncharted 2, Modern Warfare 2, Forza 3, Batman: AA, Killzone 2 etc.?
|
Come on. How many did it win in total. And was it even in the official overall GOTY form whatever company does the official one?
It wasnt even 4th when you considered that
Uncharted 2 won the most followed by:
MW2
Killzone 2
and Forza 3.
|
You are wrong.
There isn't a big "official" game of the year. It is a group of awards given out by a group of sites/mags/whatever for there OWN game of the year.
Demon's Souls won 4 GotY award, Killzone 2 won 1, Forza 3 didn't win any AFAIK.
The order of things on top 4... Goes in the following order.
Uncharted 2 (100)
Batman: AA (24)
Dragon Age: Origins (16)
Modern Warfare 2 (14)
