Didn't Red Dead Redemption win a bunch of Game of the Year awards last year in spite of coming out in May or something?

This isn't cinema, the people in charge of awarding GOTY awards actually have the brain capacity to remember all year :P

Sadly, this is true (and I even fall victim for it.)

It's easy to remember how epic that Zelda game was, or how cool Xenoblade was, or how Arkham City is GOTY, when you're playing it. Trying to remember why Portal 2 was so awesome when it's 6 months ago is a greater challenge, for example. Even if it's the better game...

Not really, ME2 won a bunch a GOTY awards and came on the beggining of the year.

Portal 2 may have a lower chance, but it is still a strong contender.
