Forums - Sony - Game Of The Year Candidates so Far All PS3

Magnific0 on 13 September 2009

Demon's Souls should be right next to the strongest contenders for PS3 GOTY, if not overall.

All I have to say is that Halo Wars is not going to win any of them. Even though it deserves it more than any other game this year. Killzone 2 does not deserve to get any. I found that it was just another average mediocre shooter, without the only redeeming quality that Halo has which is co-op play.

Modern Warfare 2 just seems to be Modern Warfare reshelled and I don't see it being as highly rated as the first.

My personal pick for game of the year is *Drum Roll* Batman: Arkham Asylum. This is the only game this year that i just wanted to play, and continue to play even after I beat it. I found the all the aspects of the game to stay fresh throughout he game and never even get near being repetitive. Plus all the riddles and challenge rooms added stuff outside of the campaign for me to enjoy. 

I also think that maybe Halo 3:ODST also has a chance to get a game of the year. the single player campaign looks to be a massive overhaul from the third. Along with being able to play co-op with a couple of friends is a massive bonus. Plus combined with all the multiplayer maps as well as the new Firefight mode is mking this game look like way more than just a simple expansion pack


I agree about Killzone 2, but you already knew that. I hope you brought your flame suit!

Why no love for RE5? I have played through that game 9 times! And I am not exaggerating, I think it should at least get a mention. I am also looking forward to ODST and I feel it will be close to my GOTY!

 

I'm curious, have you played Killzone 2?

Don't Think They Did.

Too many games for Game of The Year awards. If were going by Who had the best exclusive line-ups this year Sony has this year in the bag. (as Well as last year). But for each console I see it going down this way

 

PS3: Uncharted 2 or Killzone 2 or GT5-=GOTY Winners. with inFamous,MLB 09, Demons Souls , Ratchet and Clank, Batman AA, MW2, ACII as contenders.

Xbox 360: Halo ODST or Modern Warfare 2 being the Goty Winners. With L4D2, Halo Wars and Forza being contenders 

Wii: Muramasa is taking this cake my friends. No other games will even be able to compete

New Super Mario Bros comes out this year too...

Ahh Fuck.....welll MURAMASA MURAMASA!!!!!

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

@lolcis, lol so u think NSMBWii will be better then Uncharted 2? roflroflrofl

Personal preferences aside, ROFL here is just wrong.  Uncharted generally scored in the high 80's, main series Mario Bros games....not sure there is one that was ever scored that low. 

I'm not saying U2 won't win GOTY but to say that NSMBW has no chance is silly and shortsighted given the heritage of the two franchises.

 

For a 2D platformer to win GOTY it'd have to be something entirely unique and amazing like LittleBigPlanet. NSMB Wii looks and plays identically to a DS game released 4 years ago. I'm sure it will win a few awards based on nostalgia and name alone, but realistically it doesn't stand much of a chance.

But for an action game that looks and plays like a game released 2 years ago it's ok?  They're both sequels... so isn't that sort of expected?

They all great games, but New Super Mario Bros Wii is out this year...

O_O

I forgot all about that!

Don't worry, it has no realistic chance to become game of the year. In most cases it won't even be one of the nominees.

Well i wouldn't be sure about that. The gaming press tends to give mario games a free pass.

 

Anyways I think theres a lot of really great games out this year .. but alas.. there can be only one... highla..cough goty...

 

well for each site XD

No, the main Mario games are just usually really really good.

 

You can usually tell the games given a free pass because they get attacked somewhat when looked back upon, GTA IV, B&W, Fable were all reviewed exceptionally well at first and only later did the press start going 'wait a minute...'.

It is indeed just your opinion.

In this situation I think its going to be a very lonely opinion indeed.
