Not really a bold prediction: MGSV is GOTY

I will be surprised if Fallout 4 doesn't win more. MGS is a japanese game and most big english gaming websites are american, so its usually an american game that gets the most awards.

Maybe that's for another reason as well though. To put it simply most good games are American games. Both Europe and Japan can put out some very high quality games, but they just don't seem to have the quantity of good ones that America does.

USA + Canada is much bigger than Japan. Japan probably makes more good games relatively speaking.

Splatoon (let's be honest, it would probably be 90% on metacritic if it was reviewed as it is now), Super Mario Maker, MGS V and Bloodborne are some of the best games this generation (and I'm just listing games that released this year). Xenoblade Chronicles X and Persona 5 also look promising.
