pls respond Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 MW3. Because I'm a fanboy. Honestly, I respect MW3 fans more than Battlefield fans. I just can't bring myself to like anything made by EA these days, because of how arrogant their management is and how poorly their developers are treated. At least Activision has the decency to respect their competitors.that is a terrible reason to not respect fans of a game. just because the publisher is awful doesn't make the game any worse. i'm not saying that what EA does is right, but insulting the fans of one of their games (well, sort of insulting i guess) doesn't really make any sense to me. my personal game of the year is L.A. Noire. i haven't played that many games this year (my interest in gaming has waned recently) but to me that was the one that stood out the most. even with its awful ending.

Back on topic, I am not going to choose the obvious 5 (Skyrim, BF3, MW3, Uncharted 3, or Arkham City), It's most likely gonna be Sonic Generations for me. Lord knows how long I've waited for something like this game. Quote Undergoing Renovations... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look, I didn't mean any disservice to BF3 fans. If you like it, then good for you. I just don't like EA. I meant I can identify with MW3 fans better because they don't like BF3 and that means we agree. Not really for the same reason, but... oh never mind. that is a terrible reason to not respect fans of a game. just because the publisher is awful doesn't make the game any worse. i'm not saying that what EA does is right, but insulting the fans of one of their games (well, sort of insulting i guess) doesn't really make any sense to me. i dont like battlefield fans because they keep telling me how amazing their game is. like, thats great. good for you. i dont care. Yea, that too. It seems like some BF3 fans have a CoD complex. Here's why: people are tired of the same games recycled over and over and over. And the people who are all excited about BF3? there going to be raving about some new franchise next year. Because they don't want to play the same game every single year, but they don't want to try something entirely new.* Edited October 20, 2011 by Leg O'Brick Quote Nuparu's BoomBoxor is temporarily out of commission (been infected by some malware & whatnot, curse those anonymous russian bots).

SonicBOOM XS Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Now, you tell me how you can NOT hate Bobby Kotick. I forgot about Skyward Sword. That's my secondary GOTY just in case Generations fails. It's foolproof. DX I'm also looking forward to Uncharted 3, that's my 3rd. But if I have to choose one that's already released, that'd prolly be L.A Noire. Portal 2 is overrated, IMO. Catherine is also good for its story and theme. Quote Undergoing Renovations...

Voltex Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I'm awaiting Rayman Origins to release, and then I'll say. I also need to get Portal 2 and buy it. I have a feeling it'd be between those two- and MAYBE Skyward Sword if it can live up to the hype. -ibrow Quote JOIN AETHERGARDE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A wiki link should do just fine: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic_Generations It's basically a celebration of Sonic's 20th anniversary, so you get to play as Classic Sonic and Modern day Sonic over a course of levels from his previous games. There's a whole lot behind it, but that's in vids on a site and pics. Quote Undergoing Renovations... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rausaro Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Battlefield 3 is my personal bet. New graphics engine, vastly improved destruction physics, and the good ol' focus on team game play, not lone wolfing and kill streaks. I love the innovation.

Not that it's a big deal, since there's a sort of burst of activity since the forums are back.You shouldn't post simply to express a hot topic, as it's not really got any discussion value (as stated in the rules, I think). --- Does GOTY depend on media publicity? Or is it an actual meaningful award? Either way, if Minecraft does get released in November, it could easily win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vak Il Mio Amore Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 (edited) EDITED for the post above me. ^^Oh yes, I know that. However, there is a -Primary- GOTY website, which is what most people think of when they hear "Game of the Year". Though I do recognize and normally frequent the various GOTY sites :3 ^The primary site I followed (which I beileve was the main GOTY, the one everybody watches most of all... sadly, I don't remember who or the URL or anything >.<) had those games up there, but Heavy Rain and that one game where you're a little kid in a black-and-white world were two of the top 5, and both were very untradtional.
