Re: Game of the Year so far

I haven't played any great non-sports games this year, so I voted "Other."

Re: Game of the Year so far

None of this will matter in November anyway.

Your right, uncharted 2 will change all that come October:wink:.

Re: Game of the Year so far

Batman really was the surprise of the year for me. I had it on my radar but I was not watering at the mouth for it. But once I played it WOW!!!!!!!! It is in a class of its own. That and uncharted 2 will be the best single player games this year bar none.

Action Adventure
Batman
Uncharted 2

Sports
Madden 10
UFC 2009

Re: Game of the Year so far

Maybe that's why it says "game of the year SO FAR"
In any case it's a discussion asking for opinions not facts....

Yeah, I understand what this thread is supposed to be about. I just didn't understand how some people could say a game that hasn't come out yet could be the GOTY...

Re: Game of the Year so far

Killzone2 or Infamous. I have a feeling the games released in the fall are going to trounce them though.

Re: Game of the Year so far

I have yet to play a game this year that has blown me away. I really hope that COD:MW2 or something comes along that is good. Usually Fall is a good time for good games so I'm thinking there will be a few that will be possibilities for Game of the Year.

Re: Game of the Year so far

So far I give the nod to Batman. It was just a great story, good graphics, and one of those games that I kept coming back to in order to find more secrets/solve more riddles.

I don't think we've seen the real GOTY yet, but if the year ended in August, Batman would get my nod.

Re: Game of the Year so far

Batman by far for me. The polish of that game is only rivaled by KZ2 and possibly Infamous. However, as many others have said, come november...none of the games on this list will even matter IMO.

Re: Game of the Year so far

I have to be honest, not one game that has been released this year so far has blown me away. The good news is that there are still four months left in the year.

Not much more to say than this.

Uncharted 2 has got my hopes up though.

Re: Game of the Year so far

Batman is awesome. I finished it a couple of nights ago and it is indeed worthy of being a game of the year nominee. Funny thing though; I really don't see myself going back to replay it. When I finished Bioshock and Uncharted, I knew I was gonna replay those games soon and savor every minute of it. With Batman, I do not get that vibe, even though I loved the game and it is first class all the way. Weird.

For me GOTY so far is The Beatles: Rock Band, but I am heavily biased. I feel like this game was made just for me, so I understand it not really being considered.

I am really looking forward to Uncharted 2 and hoping they didn't screw up what was a truly great thing. I replayed the first one again just last week and it is truly a wonder to behold.

Re: Game of the Year so far

After playing it some more, I'm definitely going with Splosion Man. I don't particularly even care for platform/puzzle sort of games, but this is a blast. Halfway through the co-op levels, I'm constantly impressed by the puzzles. And even though me and my buddy have failed a number of times on some levels, so much so that the game has given us opportunities to skip that particular level, it's never felt cheap or punishing and I've never stopped having fun.

Great puzzles, great humor, exciting action, and co-op. And it's only $10.

Re: Game of the Year so far

Didn't buy any of these, but I'm going to have to go with MLB 09: The Show at this point just because.

And if it counts because of weekly DLC, RB2 wouldn't have gotten my vote last year, but is actually my most replayable game this year. So since it stays up-to-date, I guess I can either say that or change that to my GOTY for last year.

But soon the big games will come out, and my vote will surely change.

Re: Game of the Year so far

1. NHL 10
2. Batman
3. InFamous

Of course, Uncharted 2 is due out soon. And I think Bioshock 2 is also due out this year, so, that could be up there as well. And if you are wondering how I could put NHL 10 up there even though it is not quite out yet, after playing the demo, I could feel the greatness.
