Congratz Nintendo, a well earned award. Galaxy owns.

All those who are surprised, your hardcore gamer license has been suspended for 60 days.

Excellent, that makes SMG officially the game of the year all round (well duh) It is a good game and I am pleased to see it being so praised.

Good. It's nice to see that a quality platformer can get its' due cred.

Also: isn't Galaxy the first Nintendo-made game to win so many GotY's since Ocarina?

Fanboys going wild in the comments there..

CoD4 and The Orange Box are better, imo.

I still need to check out Bioshock.

I won't be surprised if most people give Galaxy game of the year since there was so much competition elsewhere. 

Congrats to Nintendo. Its such an awesome game and definitely deserving of goty.

That must have been a really tough call since there's been many outstanding games.

SMG winning is really a boost to Nintendo's philosophy that in the end, it's the gameplay, the fun, that matters most.

yeah!! :)

take that Sony and Microsoft fanboys!!!! :P

Nintendo deserved it!! what happened xbox360?? halo3?? bioshock?? mass effect?? resistance?? nooo......

Super Mario Galaxy is the BEST game ever....... :)

Fun retarded quote from the comments on IGN:

- "Everyone's Mario biased so we knew who would take home GOTY, whatever."

If it's a viewpoint that everyone has, it's not really biased, is it?
