ImJustBayuum on 30 April 2010

Definite contenders & deservingly so IMO

MASS EFFECT 2

GOD OF WAR 3

FF XII

 

Not yet released but most likely will be contenders

Halo Reach

Alan Wake

Zelda

GT5

Red Dead Redemption

 

 

Games already released that are unlikely to be contenders but are worthy to be praised nevertherless

Heavy Rain

Splinter Cell

MH3

Battlefield 2

Bioshock 2

Bayonetta (edit)

 

 

Games not yet released & are likely to be praised but are unlikely to be contenders

SMG2

MSG:rising

Fable:3

Crackdown 2

 

 

Games not yet released & are likely to be praised but doesnt deserve it

Crysis 2

Call of duty:next

 

Edit

- I totally forgot about Bayonetta.

-SMG2: I guess Mario could be in the 'likely' list base on its history but then again this is not 2007

-Star Craft 2: Definite contender but its not on consoles

-The Last Guardian: 2011 title but if its going to be release this year it could be in the contenders list

My GOTY = Final Fantasy XIII

Unless MGS5 releases no game will surpass the enchanting & magical experience that it was.

But looking at its metacritic....its unlikely most sites would give it the GOTY. No FF has ever got loads of GOTY awards anyway.

Among the sites I'd say Mass Effect 2 will get GOTY unless Zelda Wii amazes all.

@OP

FF XII released in 2006, it can't be nomnated for GOTY this year.



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

FF XIII
ME2
Zelda

are my picks for probable GoTYs.

Peace Walker technically was MGS5. and I forgot to add this and Valkyria Chronicles 2!

and if it makes it this year: FINAL FANTASY XIV! :D:D:D

I don't know why the two biggest games of E3 '09 aren't on this list: Metroid Other M (most likely Game of the Year if Zelda doesn't come out this year) and The Last Guardian.

No metroid love? That game looks great. As of right now Heavy Rain is my GOTY and followed by Red Steel 2.

That's a lot of praise for Final Fantasy XIII. I might have to give it a go :D . 

OT: If Zelda Wii is good as/surpasses Ocarina of Time, which is what Eiji Aonuma is aiming for, then that's GOTY : ) .

MASS EFFECT 2 ... for now.



johnappseed84 on 30 April 2010

I forgot to mention Epic Mickey. That is definitely a strong dark horse contender imo.

No SMG2 love?
