Same here. I've only had time to play it for a couple of hours, but it's just amazing. The same beautiful dark fantasy epic that Demon's Souls was and more.Daystar Clarion said:

I'd like to see Skyrim beat that. It's not going to be easy.
Wow, I think this is the first time I've seen this thread and not seen "OMGZZZ SKYRIM!!!!11" filling the entire first page.
Anyway:
1. Rage (haven't finished it yet, but still amazing so far)
2. Bulletstorm
3. Duke Nukem Forever (yes, I liked it)
I was hoping Hard Reset was going to be a lot better than it actually was, but oh well. That is most likely my top 3 games of this year, since there isn't anything coming out that I'm interested in until 2012.

Right now? I can't decide between Persona 2:Innocent Sin and Catherine. Dark Souls is up there too, but I need to play it more first.
At this juncture? Deus Ex: Human Revolution, with honorable mentions going to Portal 2, The Witcher 2 and Dark Souls, however seeing as how Battlefield 3 and Zelda Skyward Sword are imminent that could change.
Saints Row 3 is the game that I am most pumped for but I would be kidding myself if I said it would win GOTY--personally or no.
I would like to give it to Dead Island. Despite Dead Island having a shitton of glitches, I still played the hell out of it. That speaks a lot about a game to me considering I gave FNV the middle Finger and I love anything Fallout.

After reading through my comment several times, I have failed to find that line anywhere.SirBryghtside said:
What I do recall stating is that Valve can be expected to produce good games and thus the fact that Portal 2 was excellent comes as no surprise.
I believe I also wrote that sequels and franchise games should not get Game of the year, this is because they already have a pedigree which stand-alone titles lack, as well as a fanbase and an inflated budget. Portal 2 was sufficiently different from Portal 1 to be considered a game in its own right, but it was not a stand-alone title.
I have come from the future to warn you of two things! 1) The world is all fine and well so don't go selling all your possessions yet. 2) Skyrim is amazing so maybe sell a pet or something to get the money ready.
1. Hard Reset
This game is like FPS meets Super Meatboy, and Bomberman goes crazy on the background. I'm aware of its flaws, still this is my GOTY. I've had by far the most fun playing this game this year.
2. Deus Ex: Human Revolution
This was my GOTY until Hard Reset came out.
3. Bulletstorm

3. Bulletstorm
Infamous 2, Portal 2, and Dead Space 2 are all strong contenders but, unless something goes horribly wrong, the title will belong to Arkham City.
It was a good year for sequels.

The Witcher 2 for game of the year.
Deus ex was great mechanically but the supporting characters were not fleshed out. They existed for a mission then faded into obscurity. The main character was one dimensional. Jensen was boring and the megan relationship never went any where. Aside from the character issues everything else was great including the endings
portal 2 was great but being honest those cave johnson levels were a little scrappy. The moment I hit the brown sewer levels I wanted to be back in the test chambers
Waiting for Zelda Skyward sword
