    @da, Oh, I see now, you think games whould win shooter of the year, because there graphics are better, well hate to break it to you, but they judge games on gameplay, what a concept.

    Gears sux end of story, k bye... Farcry 2 has better and more realistic graphics than this garbage... Seriously the only reason Xbox 360 only games win is because of fanboys just look at Halo and crap like that... Sickens me. Expand your horizons people... More went into Farcry 2 imo, has a map editor even and the detail of the weapons and environment is top notch, not to even mention the AI in the game...

    Gears of War 2 Wins Shooter of the Year!



    @Systematik, you're just mad that all your precious PC developers have moved on to consoles, because it's a better experince.

    Honestly, you 360 kiddies need to learn more about games, and the amount of depth one needs to entertain not only you, but others. Having seen the trailers for Gears of War 2, I was overall not excited for this game. At all. I saw more depth in from a game in Audiosurf, a game I actually liked this year. I'm a PC guy, and sure, call me an enthusiast, but I'm enjoying it. I'm surprised they picked this over Fallout 3. Yet again, an immersive game, which had it all. A story, explosive gameplay, and a re-playability factor. Little Big Planet was fun too, and I'm even a fan of the Playstation 3, which has more processing power (and features less crashes!) than that Xbox 360 everyone loves so much. Gears of War 2 isn't game of the year material, it's not even worth mentioning. It seems you 360 fanboys have infected the circulation of games with your awfully crappy titles, and this is a perfect example.

    Why is Gears a nominee....

    There's much better 360 games than this.

    Oh well, chalk up a win for MGS4.

    Best story in video game history. Graphics are simply revolutionary. (The cutscene graphics are the in-game graphics)

    The atmosphere of the game, dare I say it, makes you feel courageuos, and courage is SOLID!



    Oh and the guy that said Gears sold 3 mil copies in 3 weeks.

    MGS4 sold twice that in 3 weeks.

    I've tried this game, and i can't say much about it as i haven't played alot, but the story didn't feel that good. It was just lame and i didn't get into it. The gameplay feels weird and i can't understand why everybody was so hyped about this game. I can't imagine the first one being any better either, since gameplay is problably the same. No. I gave it a 6/10, meaning it's problably more like an OK game, but that's like it.

    There is no strategy in the multiplayer of this game its just chainsaw chainsaw chainsaw. Gears one you had sniping you cant even snipe hardly in this game without chainsawed. I can not see this as game of the year but the fan boys will win it just like they did for Halo3

    C'Mon man, quit being such ridiculous fanboys....When I went to get COD5 (November 15th), someone was already returning it saying that the online was absolutely horrible but the story was good and some other guy in Gamestop said "Ya the online does really suck".

    The game is alright, but not GOTY material...Im a PS3 supporter, (ya ya ya go ahead yell at me and call me a fanboy) but LBP was a hell of alot more creative, fresh and interesting concept than Gears. Quit being blinded by your fanboyism.

    MGS4 for Game of the Year, and I agree mast3rmind



    Call of Duty W@W should be in place of this game, this game isnt on MGS & GTA's level



    ppl just buy into the hype when the reality is MGS & GTA were THE best and the only reason GTA may not win is to please the parents, but MGS should win it anyway



    LittleBIGPlanet shouldnt even be in here or Fallout 3, are you serious?



    they put THAT up against a revolutionary stealth game with storyline quality like no other that is the MGS series and a revolutionary game like GTA with so much to do, so many places to go and that so many games have copied like Saints Row & True Crime tried, but no. Snoop was the best thing about the game



    so MGS4 (the last of the series and one helluva game) for Game of the Year!!

    This looks like a great game, however, i do not own a XBOX 360, i don't particularly like their games, however i just seem to notice that the same 3 games keep coming up in each category. I'm sure there are other games that could be considered.

    lilsmuck18 your a fucking idiot, have you even played gears 2 obviously you havent, yet you say you have. are you trying to prove something to yourself, do you think if you tell yourself at night that metal gear will win that it will. well save us all the greif and shut that lilsmuck mouth of yours. your just arrogant and that all you know. sure metal gear and fallout 3 are great games but don't going calling people retards for beliving in a good game, when you make a game 1 tenth as good as gears ill give you room to talk on how it should and shouldn't win GOTY!

    Cheers @ rottencorpse for his outstanding presentation of what its like to be a immature fanboy in modern society. Im touched by the way he hit the nail on the head. Even if GeoW 2 (not GoW) isnt winning GOTY this year, he surely deserves FOTY!

    BEST game ever on ANY system...PERIOD. I love how all the Pee s 3 fangirls like to say only fanboys will vote this game..well lets see...EVERY game magazine in publication has stated that the Graphics in Gears of War 2 are some of the best ever..Pee s 3 fangirls are just sad that they bought the overhyped overpriced ps3 and got stuck with nothing good to play except XBOX 360 hand me downs...Anyone who says the graphics are the same as last year are either blind, dumb or a combo of both. Pee s 3 fangirls are so ignorant..Have fun with little turd planet..OOH thats great...if youre 2 years old and have ZERO gaming skills.

    GOW2 is only half a game. The single player and co-op are good as well as Horde mode in multi-player. The rest of multi-player is a big lemon. Too many glitches and problems with maps. Is there a category for games that should be recalled?

    The story really doesnt cut it, the writers had excessive characters like the chick in the first first Gears of War who at the beginning looks at Marcus like they were once a couple and now they're on the front lines together, OOH big deal!! Epic Games, sorry but after i graduate from College with my Bachelor's for Art and Design, you guys will not be on my list of game companies i will want to apply for. I'm already thinking Valve, Konami America and maybe Bungie.

    as S3117 said, "fanboys vote and its a sure win". This game falls desperately short from the mark. More like Tears of War. I hope this game doesn't win cause that would be like kissing your sister.

    No chance of this winning unless hundreds of desperate fanboys vote for it. This game was a big disappointment and was way too over hyped. Graphics were same, gameplay was the same, story was still mediocre and only a couple new features. SPIKE has no idea of what is really going on in the Video game Industry, they just put up the biggest names for nominations, nothing really changes every year. Little Big Planet shouldn't even be nominated, its a kids game and it becomes boring after minutes of playing it. Good try though spike.
