I do have to agree, the game is like nothing else. I got the game on Friday and I already played for about 4 hours. The game is really amazing and the magnitude is out of this world.
I still cant believe that such a game is setting at a 9.4 metacrtic, it deserves more.

GOTY confirmed, everything else is way behind (including Uncharted 2).

93 at this point...but who's counting :)

OP: Visuals and macho badassness is what God of war always did best. the game looks badass when looking at youtube vids alone, I can imagine playing it is even more awesome.

GOW1 had lower metacrtic than Resident Evil 4 and it still won most of the GOTY awards in 2005...

Got to love when people make things up.

Major publications see 2005 game of the year awards like this:

Resident Evil 4: 13 wins

God of War: 3 wins

Even if you count your 10 secret blogs which giving GOW game of the year awards...they are still tied. :D

YOu are right, RE4 did recived more GOTY awards. I didnt realized game recived scores THAT good. But even though RE4 recived more GOTY awards, GOW 1 recived more awards overall.
