personally it may end up as a tie between arkahm city, portal 2, battlefield 3, and guild wars 2.....but i think portal 2 leading on the final stretch.
Portal didn't have day 1 dlc; it had a day 1 hat shop. The only reason the score is below a 9 on metacritic is because /v/ bombed the score on day one.Therumancer said:Well, GoTY nominations tend to be bought not earned so it's hard to say.
2011 was supposed to be a huge year for Blockbuster games, and EA in paticular has been flooding the market. It hasn't turned out that way though, and truthfully a lot of these blockbusters seem to be fizzling down to pretty run of the mill successes, if that (sales aside). "Dragon Age 2" was badly received, and despite the fanboyism I honestly do not think that "Portal 2" has had rating difficulties simply due to Day1 DLC, largely because even when it's inspire anger it hasn't lead to that kind of reaction.
Funny part is that I'm hoping it's the exact opposite, since I absolutely hated GTA4, and loved Red Dead.tigermilk said:LA Noire. Well I am hoping that it turns out to be another GTA IV not another RDR (such a fucking dissapointment).
