Oh that's... ironic. I just can't shrug off this feeling that you posted this thread just because they gave GotY to Uncharted 2. Anyway, I do admit that Dragon Age is being overrated left and right.
Anyway, if we started making threads for every website/magazine that gives out "prestigious" GotY awards, we'd spam this forum into oblivion.

Though it's pretty obvious that the main fight for the most GotY awards will be between DA:O and MW2.
At any rate, anyone who doesn't give a GotY to DoW2, Empire: Total War or Torchlight is a raging fanboy who only cares about sales, hype, popularity and multi-platform. See what I did there?

Even though i don't put much stock into spikes VGA's my favorite fighting game, Street Fighter 4, won fighting game of the year to my suprise. i thought they were gonna give it to Tekken 6. (my second fav fighting game) it probably got runner up if there was such a thing.
hm.

Also, for all the folks out there who don't take the VGA's seriously, people do know that in order for a game to win in the VGAs, regular people have to vote for it. If a game gets the votes it deserves the win, IMO. At the end of the day, it's all opinion and popularity contest. Ya'can't get mad if the game you like doesn't win. Lord knows I didn't vote for Uncharted 2, but I respect it's victory and the show it won the award on.
