This is where metacritic lies to you guys badly. Because a site gives a big scores does not decides game of the year. Game of the year can be a team or personal decisions based on the games they enjoy. while, the review is just one person opinion. |
I never mentioned reviews, and i think you are mistaking me for a ''nintendo fan'' -if you are not then i apologize because i said it first- but my point is, for example in the recent game awards/previous VGA's (just one GOTY award out of all of em), nobody can get in my head that the juries just vote for their favorite game and that's it - there HAS to be some extra hand in there because these events/awards in general (by magazines, etc) are used as advertisement and that is potentially a lot of money so of course companies wouldn't want to pass on that - then a game is picked because it was ''widely popular'' (widely advertised) and so on... of course for those same reasons most people agree with the pick and case closed - Nintendo doesn't have either the will or maybe the potential market to want to ''invest'' on these things so they'll just wont win - and yes there are counted exceptions but THAT'S what makes it obvious they are part of the scheme; nobody wants to see themselves as the ones who gave goty to a nintendo game
