Id also like to say WOW at Fallout 3 winning best story.
Maybe they bypassed MGS4 completely on this?
even GTA4s story was better than Fallouts story. imo Fallout is all about the gameplay.not story

They chose MGS4 for overall graphics, Starcraft must be rolling in his grave.

I can't really agree with Fallout 3 for GOTY, I didn't enjoy it very much.

Never mind that ... how the hell did L4D beat Gears2, Resistance2, Cod:WaW and even Far Cry? And GTA winning best use of sound? PFFT!!!! did they use surround sound when playing MGS/Dead Space? im really quite shocked at most of these =/
