And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

ATTN: ALL VOTERS: You may edit your votes up until Dec 20th when they will be collected.  No votes will be counted until then so feel free to post it partially complete and come back to edit it later.  This applies to all categories on every platform.

VGC is currently holding voting among its contributor staff for our GoTY selections in several categories.   Now we would like to find out what is YOUR GoTY.  So if you have a few minutes to give your opinion please cast your votes and take note that scoring is weighted based on the number of games you list for the category to give those who have played more games in that category more importance.  Please don't add games if you've never played them at all.

Voting is now open. Voting will be open until December 20th.

When voting: Please pick at least top 2 choices for each category whenever possible. Preferably top 3 if you can come up with that many. You may list up to the top 5 in each category.

NOTE: The games listed are not the only options, feel free to add games we forgot so long as they were released in NA during 2008.
