This hurts me. I don't think Gears is the best game of the year (Batman is better) but it's one of the best. Who were the nominees?

Batman: Arkham city, skyrim, zelda: skward sword, portal 2 and uncharted 3. 

Two of the games have not been released yet......odd.

Well atleast the critics have played it already just can't post their reviews yet (not sure about Zelda).

And don't really see an reason why Gears of war 3 should deserve to be in the top 5...  

Hint: How many other big exclusives were release for X360 this year? ;)

And? Just because its THE X360 EXCLUSIVE this year it automatically deserves to be nominated?

I'd put Forza 4 in there ahead of Gears 3 tbh, but I still thing Gears perhaps deserves a spot.

I dont think Portal 2, Skyrim or Zelda should be on the list.

Fair enough

yeah, smells like something is a cookin in teh fixing oven...

Forza 4.

That game is a huge deal, because we have a Forza 4 vs. GT5 thread that is approaching the 1,000 replies mark and it has come to the point that GT5 fans apologized to Forza 4 fans. That's how big Forza 4


wasn't the appology due to the guy being an ass

Dont see any reason....?

ok, but imo the only reason to NOT include it is perhaps because of the old  "it just does the same a bit better"... but then why would Uncharted 3 be there?

There is every reason for it to be there.

Because all those games nominated have an amazing singleplayer experience(?).  Most people who want to play Uncharted wanted it for the story while Gears of war popularity is thx to the multiplayer.  Same reason why Battlefield 3 is not in the list.

And if I would nominate 5 games it is possible that Uncharted 3 would not be in my list it is difficult to choose especially with so many games still releasing.

Yes, but the reason why he acted that way in the first place is that Forza 4 is a better game than GT5.

Selective reading, that's all I am going to say.

yup, selective reading, thats all i am also going to say... better yet, lets go ask him...





Gears got stellar reviews, was a commercial success (already the biggest game of the year, so far), and people that played it were pleased with the game. I don't get it. Even the Academy Awards has a cut-off date. And people get to vote for their favorite? How many voters will have played all of the games nominated? I know Spike TV doesn't speak for the world. Hell, I don't even think it's a respected awards show, yet. What I do know is that it's the closest thing we have to a Video Game Oscar and it's got the biggest exposure. Gears not winning, I'm fine with. Gears not being nominated? That's some ol' bullshit!

More proof that Microsoft doesn't pay off people?

Didn't he say that he deserved to be banned? Case closed.

yup, for unnecessary insults. by the way...

I was right and you was lying.. I guess you're the one with selective reading..

Yeah, and summer is better than winter.



Nintendo is selling their IPs to Microsoft and this is true because:
