Killzone 2 is GOTY so far

Uncharted 2 looks like it will dethrone KZ2 and become the GOTY when 2009 is all over.

InFAMOUS looks like loads of fun and has received nothing but great reviews so far

GOTY will be a 360 exclusive this year. Sorry but it will. Quote me in your sig if you like.

It will go to either Alan Wake, Splinter Cell or Halo ODST.

Alan Wake is the only one of those with any chance of being GoTY.

Sorry, Sam Fisher on the run in broad daylight and a budget game starring minor characters from the Halo universe aren't exactly GoTY material.

Contenders for GoTY would be Uncharted 2, Alan Wake, Modern Warfare 2 and BioShock 2. And God of War III, if that releases in 2009.

I agree with Kantor, Splinter Cell is not a series that is well known for having a chance to be GOTY. The games Kantor do have a chance to be GOTY

Yeah, I'm thinking GOTY will be one of the multiplat games. KZ is way too limited, even for an FPS. I would guess BioShock 2 or MW 2.

"but you get a lot of variety as well. FPS game, Open-World Sandbox super hero/villain game, and a action/adventure/TPS game."

HAHAHA!!

Yes it is.

a) "So far" in May means...well, nothing.

b) That's a really subjective claim anyway

c) Even objectively, it really isn't. Although I can't even properly refute you since you don't offer any justification.

Crusty VGchartz old timer who sporadically returns & posts. Let's debate nebulous shit and expand our perpectives. Or whatever.

It's not even worth responding to... It doesn't hold up to past GOTY in its scope, and there are already games that outscore it and outsell it... It's trailing pretty far in many of the criteria normally cited in GOTY discussions. Given that we're so early in the year, I'm not confident KZ can pull FPSOTY, let alone GOTY.

I aggree with this guy: it's unfair towards Sony to count in the game of the year contenders all those games which are better than Killzone 2. So please Punch-Out, Mad World, just to say the first two games which came into my mind, get the hell out of the list. I would have never thought there was a lower level of fanboysm which made me laugh this hard. I swear.
