Thoughts: inb4 MGS4 deserves it more (even though it's entirely an opinion :P).

Anyways, all great games (even though I haven't played Fallout 3 yet but plan to buy it soon).  I personally think they all deserve it but only one will get GOTY.  I personally liked Brawl the best though, but that's just me.  And this was just Gamefaqs as well.

That's great. I've been keeping track of the final poll and the second final poll. SSBB came from behind to win both of them!

Atleast SSBB got one GOTY award ;p

and yet, mkwii gets no love :'(

I can see why. I really love the game, but battle mode is atrocious.

Owned.

I have SSBB and like it, but I don't LOVE it. I don't get why people think it's such a big deal. Then again, that's my opinion of the Wii in general. I'm kinda luke warm about it.

 If you're referring to Fable II, Fallout 3, Grand Theft Auto 4, Little Big Planet, and Metal Gear Solid 4, then 'fraid so.

That's good, Brawl is a great game.

finally one of the best games of 08 gets recognition. actually i voted for it lol :)
