Still though, of this year's games I've seen in person, as far as console games go... I don't know... Mirror's Edge was pretty impressive, but I don't know if it was GOTY. Nintendo really hasn't had much of anything aside from SSBB, which just doesn't interest me that much, just like the first two... if only we were getting Fire Emblem DS here this month too, like Europe is... :(
I don't know, I haven't played enough of this year's stuff. But it wouldn't be Fallout 3, that's for sure.
"I haven't really played any games this year, but there's no way that Fallout 3 could be the best game this year. Just no way at all. I mean...I mean...come on, man! Bethesda, man!! OH GOD FLASHBACKS TO DECEMBER 8, 2003! *breathes heavily into paper bag* It's all okay, man, just keep bashing that Fallout 3, man. Nothing upsetting the apple cart today, boys, let me tell you. *ahem* Right anyway, I don't have a single clue what I'm talking about but I'll continue offering opinions anyhow, because you know."
Mirror's Edge isn't game of the year, I'll tell you that. It's great fun when everything clicks, but there are many moments of extreme frustration scattered around every level.
Saint's Row 2 is up there and so is Left 4 Dead, maybe toss Dead Space into the mix as well, but Fallout 3 has a great combination of open-world design, fun gameplay, and atmosphere atmosphere atmosphere that put it over the top.
