Well Mass Effect 2 is a good choice for game of the year, but I don't know about Guitar Hero 5 over Rock Band 3. Or COD: Black Ops over...anything. Especially When games like Brink and Bulletstorm and Portal 3 are on the horizon.
portal 3?
you mean 2 right I havent missed anything have I?
Also ODST should have got soundtrack its bloody awsome

Wow, those awards are a joke. Ass Creed 2? Plants VS Zombies?! Come on, you had Batman: Arkham Asylum and Shadow Complex in those respective categories and you picked those crapfests? Pokémon Heart Gold/Soul Silver for best portable game?! Those are the worst games in the series! And then you put Zelda in the RPG section.

This is why you don't have awards based on popular vote: People are idiots. Of course, the people organizing the ballots are stupid too if they put Zelda in the farking RPG section!

Wow Mass Effect 2 was freaking horrible. I know this new generation lacks taste and refinement, but ME2 was pisspoor compared to it's predecessor. Plot is lame (Nice one trick pony there), characters mostly unlikable, dumbed down RPG elements and utter shit AI.

Mass Effect 2 deserves that award and I thank everyone that made that possible.

Blazblue still should've been Fighting Game of the Year.......

God forbid people's opinions differ than yours.

Here's my opinion. Assassin's Creed 2 was the vastly superior game when compared to Arkham Asylum in every single possible way.

Also, HeartGold and SoulSilver the worst of the Pokemon series? Do Ruby and Sapphire ring a bell?

But everyone that disagrees with your opinion is an idiot so, unfortunately, my post is meaningless.

Am I the only one who thinks the video game industry needs something equivalent to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to mediate awards like this?

'Cause... Well... PvZ beating StarCraft 2 as strategy game of the year? What the hell, internet?

League of Legends for the win!
Unfortunately Wii Sports Resort and Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing didn't win. Every time there is a contest like these, people try and troll via the results (HAY GUIZE, FOOTBALL MANAGER 2010 FOR GOTY!), but nobody thinks smaller. They won't win the GotY, but what would hardcore sports fans do if Wii Sports beat FIFA or Madden?

PvZ was pretty awesome, but I don't think it's strategy of the year...
ME2 was pretty decent, but not my top game by far. But as it was dumbed down for the console masses it doesn't surprise me.

Woot! Im happy LoL was on the map as well.

Surprised to see Jagex up there, are they working on something else big apart from Runescape?
no. no they arent. im confused about it as well, especially the fact that they won. i voted for rockstar, even though i feel kind of meh towards all of those developers.

and ME2 definitely deserved GOTY. it was one of the best games ive ever played

Eh. Deserving, among the competition. I still think Dragon Age was the "story of the year", but it had admittedly a less fun gameplay than ME2. ME2 is both long, engaging, has stellar characters, and a flawless gameplay that never gets old.

But it also has the worst main story in any BioWare game since Neverwinter's official campaign module. Nothing about the Collectors/Cerberus/Human Reaper was meaningful at all. Fortunately, that's only a small part of the game.

UK Developer Of The Year - Jagex?

really? how and why?
Simple really. Think about how Zynga were tearing through March Mayham; the common link is the million-plus people that go through their websites, getting a "cast your vote for us" as they pass through. Since the Golden Joysticks work entirely on the volume of votes, Jagex's army of zombies makes for a hard competition.

I'd have to say Alan Wake probably should of gotten Soundtrack of the year I think. That game had an AMAZING soundtrack! Poets Of The Fall <3
