This really gives evidence to everyone that review scores don't matter...



 

^ Yesh

BUT MGS4 IS STILL A 10!!I .. mean 11!! XD



This really shows that nobody remembers early year releases :P (Brawl was hardly nominated anywhere)



^Lol true.. didnt think of it



Around the Network

Oh come on, you've been here for about half a year now, you've gotta know the result you're gonna get from a post like this.

But, if this is a joke post, bravo, you've got me.

Also, Opinions can't be wrong, but following other peoples opinion and using them as "evidence" of "facts" is wrong and incredibly stupid.



Well really what i did was take the Goty from the sites i know/follow

and no didnt intend for this to be a joke post (Sorry :p)

as for the following other ppls opinion, Well it wont hurt to see what the majority says no? XD

And i rather take some ppl that uhm know what theyre doing? ( Right to say that? ) then going like LOOK AT FAR CRY 2 OMG EPIC GFX sure it might look better to me but id like to see others opinion too :d



MGS4 deserved more wins, but you know, reviewers are stupid. Especially IGN. Only their PlayStation team are any good.

Congrats to LBP though. Kudos to Media Molecule. Considering this is their first real project, it's amazing. Incredible. Innovative. And different. Hell, it's probably the second best game this year.

Well, given I voted for LBP for GOTY I guess I can't argue.

The graphics one is interesting as it clearly shows that today it is console graphics that are being judged not PC.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Yeah, that month and a half difference with GTA IV really did it in...

If you ask me, the best game on Wii in 2008 was Boom Blox, and I own Brawl and Kart. I'd also put NMH above them.
