I went with I don't think. It is my favorite game this gen, so of course I want it to, but there are some major problems confronting it:

1. The recency effect is a very real, very powerful phenomenon that has been proven both empirically and anecdotally every year at the Oscars.

2. Strong, strong (times a thousand) competition.

3. No matter what detractors want to say, it IS an RPG, and RPG's don't get as many of the big sites GOTY awards.

So in regards to "Will it have the most GOTY awards"? no, that will probably go to (sigh) GoW3 or Zelda Wii or something we haven't even seen yet. It may get 1 or 2 at most.
