Skyrim, because so many people are in love with it. Even one of my Xbox Live friends (I have 10 or 15 in total) has played all day yesterday and the day before.

Its probably going to come down to Skyrim or Deus Ex for me. I loved Deus Ex and I am loving Skyrim.

Will be voted GotY: BF3 or Skyrim, I think.

SHOULD be voted GotY: Orcs Must Die!

Hmm, it's tricky. Out of catagories I'd say:

Best strategy: Frozen Synapse
Most innovative gameplay: Frozen Synapse
Best indie game: Frozen Synapse
Best RPG: Skyrim
Best Cover Based Shooter: Deus Ex: Human Revolution (I know it's not a cover based shooter but it's the only game with cover based shooting that I could stand this year)
Prettiest Game: Skyrim
Darkest Game: The Binding of Isaac
Best Puzzle Game: Portal 2
Best Writing: Portal 2
Best English Accent: Portal 2

Game of the Year: For me, a toss-up between Skyrim and Frozen Synapse. Hang on, let me flip a coin...

Skyrim wins!

God, so many well-received games. I got no idea which one'll take home the prize in the little competition I hope to be running in about a month's time on another forum.

Sadly, I have yet to play even a single game from this year. Christmas, you'd better fucking deliver.

Don't forget that there is a possibility that Star Wars: The Old Republic will turn out to be a better WoW-style MMORPG than WoW, which might make it GOTY (Depends on how tired ppl are of WoW-style MMORPGS, even if this one turns out to be the best of them all).

Either way, my vote is for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. So far, it's gotten better reviews than all the other ones.
I also like the fact that, on average, Uncharted 3 scored higher than either MW3 and BF3, in light of all the hype that was going around about them (The same might also be said of Batman: Arkham City).

Deus Ex: HR and Portal 2 were really the only games I got to delve into and play more than an hour of this year...so I'm gonna go with...

The Metal Gear Solid HD Collection. Because fuck you.

Worthwhile? Saints row the third says hi. With a rocket launcher and a horse dildo.

Sure, I know you edited your post...but I don't think saints row the third knows. I don't think it cares. Matter of fact, I think it was actively looking for an excuse to blow something up.

At this point the only way The Old Republic could impress me more than Skyrim was if they'd send a free Twi'Lek Maid out with every copy...

...and a complete, bugfree version of Knights of the Old Republic 2.


The sad thing is that the Twi'Lek Maid is considerably more likely.

Well my personal GOTY are still The Witcher 2 and Deus Ex Human Revolution, and nothing is going to change that. I have no interest in Skyrim, and I have no doubt it will "win" many GOTY awards.

DE and W2 both were excellent sequels that built upon and/or improved from their predecessors. They were outstanding RPGs with solid, fluent mechanics, excellent writing, and shining examples of what a sequel should be.

The Witcher 2 wins hands down for me with Deus Ex in second place. I just couldn't get enough of these games and truly the best games to come out this year for me.

ummmm Mass Effect 3 still has not come out
Oh, I didn't know we were living in 2012. Didn't know games from a DIFFERENT YEAR could be worthy contenders for GOTY 2011

Who knows? There are so many great choices. The past two years, gamers are the winners.
