SC2 will probably win. At least I hope it does.

» Wed Dec 29, 2010 2:43 am

Might come about the forums and see what won GOTY, but knowing how gaming is now a days, Call of Duty is gonna win.
Unless it has news on TES V, I could care less about the show.

I'm guessing ME2 will win.

Same, I know SC 2 will at least win best PC game. I think GOTY isn't much of a stretch, its a great game. I don't see you on SC 2 anymore though, Suffca, its rather sad.

If I had to choose my personal game of the year, it would be Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood.

» Tue Dec 28, 2010 7:14 pm

I won't be watching it.

» Wed Dec 29, 2010 1:15 am

I won't watch it. Any trailer shown in the VGAs will be on the Internet in a matter of hours, and the awards for "game of the year" do nothing but aggravate me because my favorite games never get awards like that.

I'm not sure if it could come out ever since Pandemic and Free Radical are in the grave.

Maybe Bioware has it!!!

LucasArts still has the license, and the tech I'm sure. Remember Elite Squadron? I have my money on it being a proof-of-concept/test for transitional battlefields. Sure it had too many loading screens, but it was on the PSP. Consoles wouldn't need the loading screens.

Plus, the story and most of the battlefields were similar to those seen in the Free Radical trailer.

I'm hoping Alan Wake walks away with some good awards.

My personal Game of the Year. :wub:

Black Ops is the game of the year. It became game of the year right at its release, if it does not win it, its phony awards.

» Wed Dec 29, 2010 12:11 am

Well, since Angry Joe got an interview with Geoff Keighley on the VGAs, I'll watch it.

» Wed Dec 29, 2010 9:46 am

I'm looking forward to seeing Bioware's announcement, and seeing who wins GoTY. Personally, I'm rooting for either ME2 or NV, although I wouldn't mind seeing Red Dead or Starcraft win.

And why is it that whenever I leave these forums for a bit, I come back to find them completely changed? I miss the old look...

Edit: And where is my avatar?! :swear:

Black Ops better not be, or it's phony awards that are influenced by volume of sales and hype over anything else.

That being said, nothing jumps out at me as a definite winner, but Red Dead is a strong contender.

Also, will not be watching. Rugby club's banquet is that night and I'll be too busy drinking copious amounts of ~~alcohol~~ apple juice.

Spike has a poll that decides GotY on their website. The two finalists are ME2 and SC2. Black Ops got beat by AC: Brotherhood...somehow...

Also, Red Dead got beat by Mass Effect 2 in the semifinals.
Oh f***, I'm thinking of G4TV. Nevermind.

Call me lame, but I live in a world so negligent of video games, so when I see a TV show dedicated to video games, I frolic to the TV in a heart beat. I just don't get to see people show their appreciation for games on TV or in real life that often, so it always makes me happy to see it.

I've been counting down the days till the VGA's as there could be a certain announcement we've be waiting for. http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1147179-official-tes-v-speculation-thread-86/page__st__80

Isnt that what its about? Obviously a great game would sell alota copies and the best would have shown distinction. Just like Black Ops has. Ie, 8 hours after release, 2,000,000+ people online playing, 32 hours after release 4,000,000+ people online playing. And there were tons of copies out there that wasnt playing, aka gifts (like Christmas gifts), then there were the ones who dont have access to online. How does that not make game of the year?

» Wed Dec 29, 2010 6:28 am

No but it better come out in my lifetime or my ghost will wander the world in madness!
cough sorry I like battlefront very much :nod:

I remember playing the first Battlefront on my PS2 when it came out. Then Battlefront 2 blew the first out of the water (even though the first is a great game). So I have expectations for one of my favorite game franchises. If they announce 3 I'll be a happy nerd :banana: (Yes I will dress up like a banana and dance if it is announced)

SC2 will probably win. At least I hope it does.

SC2 better win, ME will jut be another dusty single player game while SC2 will probably be played till the next SC. But knowing the VGA, ME is going to win.

» Tue Dec 28, 2010 10:13 pm

VGA will be airing late night here... Lucky me, south hemisphere, summer, no classes, imah be able to watch it

I don't think TESV will be there either, Bethesda is not a fan of big gaming events. But I think there are going to be enough games to make me happy

Uh, no. That makes no sense. Just because Twilight made more money than Inception, does that mean it's better. No. This isn't the NPD GoTY Awards.

» Tue Dec 28, 2010 6:30 pm

I think Mass Effect 2 is going to take it.

» Tue Dec 28, 2010 9:13 pm

For some people who have no idea what is going on due to blocking of websites http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spike_Video_Game_Awards explains what we are talking about.

» Wed Dec 29, 2010 7:50 am

maybe a bit random, but anyone think Beth might show some footage or new things from thir other games like Rage or Hunted at the VGAs? If theres Hunted footage id love to see it.

I'd love to see Red Dead Redmption win GOTY, its the most worthy of it IMO. wonder if Reach is a possibility of getting it, i really enjoyed that Halo game

» Tue Dec 28, 2010 6:35 pm

Tonight is gonna be cool as ice. Im gonna get a huge bowl of popcorn and then throw it all in the air in celebration if Elder Scrolls V is announced.

Mass Effect 2 is the greatest game on the Xbox 360 to date. I might exclude Assassin's Creed II and Oblivion but other than those two Mass Effect 2 is as beast as Cerberus. (get it?)

» Wed Dec 29, 2010 12:44 am

Red dead Redemption should have got it imo. It'l probably pick up an award somewhere though. Have you seen the categories? Seems like they made loads up just so everyone get's something at least.

Anyway it's all rubbish really lol, there's a lot of us praying for TESV to be unveiled there. It probably won't be but you never know.

» Tue Dec 28, 2010 6:27 pm

Yeah I'm going to agree, Red Dead Redemption deserves it far more than SC 2 though that's a personal opinion.

» Wed Dec 29, 2010 2:19 am

I think it's impossible to name a game of the year, because no matter what you're going to piss off a bunch of people. For example, I hate basically any RTS game, so I obviously would never vote for Starcraft 2 as my game of the year. Video games are just too varied to say one is better than all the rest.
