because Popularity = best now a days, nothing more ;p

There is a correlation between popularity and quality, you know (don't throw Modern Warfare in my face, there are exceptions)

Hey, two words: SUBJECTIVE OPINIONS. Example: I like blueberry jam and my neighbour doesn't.

That's the thing though, even on an objective standpoint it doesn't compare.

Technically it's behind all the games it's compared to, aesthetically it's behind everything but minecraft, ergonomically its bad UI means it's a LOT harder to use than the other games and on scale it doesn't do anything new since the last installment, which DX:HR, Witcher2 and Portal 2 have.

It's fine to say you like it more, but liking it doesn't make it the best game, it makes it your favourite game.

No way should Skyrim win best RPG with DX:HR and Witcher 2 in that category, and no way should it win GOTY with Minecraft and Portal 2 in that category.

TES' main selling point is the amount of hours you can lose in it; it never competes on story or actual gameplay with most other comparable games- you can lose more in Minecraft.

Besides, while I love the game it shouldn't be winning any awards for PC - it's not a PC game. It's a port with a better draw distance.

Come on...MINECRAFT? You high man?
