I think all of the sites used so far do include PC, I don't think any sites specifically cut it out

GOA and Kombo don't count PC games.

 

Do they just not cover them, or do they have a seperate award for PC GOTY? I know one of the sites I presented didn't mix them, so I gave both GOTYs.

I think sites that do not cover PC should be not included, as well as sites that separate PC out of their GotY awards. It should be an overall GotY that includes all possible participants.

They just don't include PC games on their sites, which would defeat the purpose of Overall GOTY.

 



Fallout 3 leads with 4 awards :d Nice MGS4 <3

Then I'm with you on this one. They should probably not be counted. I hope you know that you're only hurting the PC's chances of getting the most votes though. Fallout 3 is in the lead, and taking away sites will most likely take away from it's total. Basically you're trying to seal the fate of a PC game in favor of a console exclusive(LBP). Just FYI.

Also I just noticed me agreeing with you has caused hell to freeze over and pigs to fly out of my ass. Thanks shio.

Out of that list, just two new ones can be added. One is a tie win with Fallout 3 so it doesn't count. There are some others that don't consider PC games so they are out. The one from Joystiq is incorrect because MGS4 came in at #2 and they claim on Wiki it came in #1. Fable II won Joystiq.

Metal Gear Solid 4

OXCGN(Xbox site, but for some reason they have all games under consideration for their GOTY list. Very surprising.)

The Bitbag(There were no PC games awarded but the site does cover PC news so it must have just been a shut out is all.)
