Well when it comes to the GOTY discussion you might be right, but I don't think the nominees always wind up being the top-rated games according to Metacritic. For instance, even at 83 I expect Transistor to get a little more attention than you might expect based on such a score.
Also, pretty sure IGN and Dtoid (and probably a lot of other sites) usually have ten nominees for GOTY, not to mention all of the other awards. So they're going to have to dig a bit deeper than Metacritic's top 5.
