Its nationalism. They dont want a Japanese (especially Nintendo exclusive) game to win, but if you make a logical analysis of the product presented to the consumer, Bayonetta 2 is the definitive GOTY.
But, those people want to give the spot light to american companies so they can keep doing what they have been doing. It wouldnt be confortable if a japanese company that has a game that runs at a perfect 60fps 1080p without any bugs would win GOTy because they would have to admit they have been doing it wrong.

Uh huh ... 

Refer to the 2005 VGAs to see if you can keep holding up that belief ...

He's not talking about 2005, he's talking about 2014 big AAA WESTERN companies being greedy and rushing their products for a release when they're clearly not ready.

I do agree with Ike though, it's just natural. Western media will promote western games, eastern media (Japan) will promote Japanese games. It's a no brainer, specially when your big developers are flopping with their over hyped products.

 

What I do find ridiculous, is how many people consider Smash "not GOTY worth it", being because it's a fighter or whatever. That game is out only once in a generation, it celebrates the history of gaming's most well known/respected developer, has potential for hundreds of hours of gameplay and tons of content. And still is not GOTY worth it.
