Wii, Xbox 360 and PS3 game of the year nominations.

[DrDeath3191]

I can only speak for Wii: NSMB:Wii, with Shattered Memories coming in as close second (I want that game so bad!).

 

[Zetona]

The PS3 list suffers from a conspicuous lack of Demon's Souls, despite Demon's Souls scoring higher on IGN than Arkham Asylum and AC2.

The Wii list is the only one among these that doesn't strike me as being "safe". The PS3 list especially sticks to popular action games. And again, no Demon's Souls.

 

[ersatzcure]

Well, Borderlands isn't there, so those lists are wrong.

Agreed. That's what I'd be voting for, anyway.

 

[Kollega]

Okay. I'm playing part of a "voice from the back" one more time.

[HEADING=3]Where's A Crack in Time on that list? Or PC games, for that matter?[/HEADING] It would certainly be more justified than just having AC2, MW2, and Batman both for X360 and PS3. They could make separate "multiplatform" list for these. And seriously - where the fudge are PC games?

Spoiler: But then again...

 

[MirrorSweep]

Can somebody tell me where Dragon Age Origins is?

This, but in 40ft high concrete letters.

 

[Frankydee]

360: Batman AA
Wii: Muramasa
PS3: InFamous

funny that they would throw in mostly generic multi platforms.

 

[Mechanix]

Any PS3 owner with a head screwed on properly knows Uncharted 2 is going to win.

 

[Hiphophippo]

And here I thought Dragon Age was goty material. See? This is why I'm mostly a pc gamer.

 

[soulasylum85]

360 - mw2
ps3 - uncharted 2
wii - who cares

 

[slipknot4]

Killzone 2 for sure

 

[Brickcups]

Xbox 360 will be a very close tie between Assassins Creed 2 and Forza 3.

I'd say Forza since it's exclusive. Silent hill(at least they tried something new) for the Wii, and Uncharted 2 for Ps3.

 

[Zing]

These are the ACTUAL game of the year nominations by IGN, just wondering who you guys think should win in each console's category.

Wii Nominations:
1. New Super Mario Bros. Wii.
2. Muramasa: The Demon Blade.
3. Guitar Hero 5.
4. Madworld.
5. Silent Hill: Shattered Memories.

Xbox 360 Nominations:
1. Forza 3.
2. Modern Warfare 2.
3. Batman: Arkham Asylum.
4. Assassin's Creed II.
5. Street Fighter 4.

PS3 Nominations:
1. Killzone 2.
2. Uncharted 2.
3. Modern Warfare 2.
4. Batman: Arkham Asylum.
5. Assassin's Creed II.

For me personally, it'd go:
Wii - New Super Mario Bros Wii.
Xbox 360 - Assassin's Creed II.
PS3 - Batman: Arkham Asylum.

Don't own a Wii so I won't comment on that.

Where are the PC nominations?

Anyway;

360: Batman: Arkham Asylum
PS3: Assassin's Creed II

 

[Zing]

And here I thought Dragon Age was goty material. See? This is why I'm mostly a pc gamer.

Well that would have been my PC GOTY, its just not nearly as good on consoles.

 

[happysock]

Personally I'd say Left 4 Dead 2 or borderlands is my game of year for the 360

EDIT: Or Dragon age, can't believe I forgot that

 

[malestrithe]

Wii Nominations:
2. Muramasa: The Demon Blade.

Xbox 360 Nominations:
5. Street Fighter 4.

PS3 Nominations:
2. Uncharted 2.


This is probably why I am not a game reviewer. These are the only games I played on the list this year. I only picked up Muramasa because it is made by the same group that did OdinSphere and GrimGrimoire.

Street Fighter 4, well the controls worked better once I gotten Tekken 6 with the fight stick.

I played Uncharted 2, but I do not remember doing so. Left no impression on me whatsoever.

 

[Aardvark Soup]

Funny how everyone is once again ignoring the existance of handhelds, even though there have been quite some interesting DS, PSP and IPhone games last year.

Lol, so optimistic.
No its gonna be


Wii - Super Mario Bros Wii
360 - Modern Warfare 2
PS3 - Modern Warfare 2

 

[Thunderhorse31]

It's sad that a half-assed, rehashed, DS-port of a game like New Super Mario Bros. Wii is up for game of the year. It's only on the list because it's one of the 3 first-party games from the Big N all year. Damn they're lazy. Sigh.

Anyway, my votes:

Wii: Madworld (it wasn't even that great, but at least it wasn't shovelware)
360: Forza (though B:AA is a close second)
PS3: Uncharted 2, no question.

 

[Zing]

OP, you should update your post, these are the nominee's for PC. From this video http://au.video.ign.com/dor/articles/1054402/igns-game-of-the-year-2009-nominee-videos/videos/ignNOMINEE_spc_pc_121009.html

Empire Total War
Left 4 Dead 2
Braid
Batman: Arkham Asylum
Dragon Age: Origins

With that in mind, even though I played and loved Arkham Asylum on PC, Dragon Age deserves it, but I'd still like to see Batman: AA acknowledged on another platform.

PS3: Batman: Arkham Asylum
360: Assassin's Creed II
PC: Dragon Age: Origins

edit:

Also PSP Nominations are:

Dissidia Final Fantasy
LittleBigPlanet
Motor Storm: Arctic Edge
Patapon 2
Resistance: Retribution

and DS:

GTA Chinatown Wars
Henry Hatsworth
Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks
Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story
Scribblenauts

 

[shadow skill]

It's between Infamous and Demon's Souls on the PS3 for me. I honestly can't say anything about the 360 because nothing really jumped out at me this year.
