      1. I liked Skyward Sword, Portal, Uncharted, Batman and Noir, and honestly i cant make up my freaking mind. i probably wont vote though

        ps: i havent finished Skyward Sword (but so far, its very good)

    1. its from the rarest times that i agree with ya. i voted for skyward sword too.BECAUSE SKYWARD SWORD IS THE GAME OF THE YEAR AND NOT THE UNSITED.batman arkham city is good game but not good enough as skyward sword!

  1. The Skyward Sword by far is the best game there, its a masterpiece! Beautifully made, fits in with movies and adventures at the Baftas. All the same old bang bang shooting war and Fifa games are the same every year boringgggg!

  2. I was disappointed with BF3. (Other BF veterans will understand.)
    MW3… why is this an option?
    Same with Minecraft.
    FIFA 12 just seems like a rehash of ’11 with features that should’ve been in years ago.
    LA Noire had good lasting appeal and CGI.
    I havent played Portal 1 or 2.
    UC3 has good graphics, but the gameplay COD-ised itself. UC2 was better.
    Arkham is the only superhero game that deserves GOTY nominations… maybe Spiderman 2, too.

    From the view of the game’s in terms of quality, creativity and lasting appeal, it should be between Skyrim, Skyward Sword and LA Noire, with Arkhangelsk (<– iPod auto correct) Arkham at a somewhat lesser extent.

        1. He’ll get a life when you stop telling him to get a life for telling others to get a life when you get his penis out of your butt…

  3. i dont know, to me SS felt like every other zelda game but with motion controls. i hope the wii u zelda gets to be a little bit more western(open world,a lot of side quest but still having an amazing main quest, crafting system, etc), my opinion of course.

        1. i always say the truth.u just dont know the nintendo history and u dont even played original games like zelda from NES ,so shut up and ur trolling

    1. I don’t agree with you but get your point. But Nintendo wouldn’t be Nintendo if they did all that western stuff. If they did gamers like me would’ve nowhere to turn when looking for the kind of games I like to play

  4. shit Batman: Arkham City was fucking hard but it was awesome that game make my dick rock hard! Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is Modern Warfare 2 i want my money back >:( The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim just beats all its fucking epic so epic going to have to come up with a new word for epic The Legend Of Zelda: Skyward Sword was cool but i feel Nintendo didn’t change noting in the game but add motion that some hate and like for i dont like it my arms get tired when i want to keep playing . Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception it was ok but 2nd one was better for me i think Batman: Arkham City should get it

    1. i thought the last 4 chapters were awesome on uncharted 3, the flipping boat, sky diving, even young drake was cool , but i feel like Uncharted 2 was better aswell.

  5. in my opinion zelda was epic best and i played unchearted (the demo) and skyrim.
    unchearted was boring and i was overslept,skyrim was a litlle hard but goody,skyward sword woke me up and opened my eyes and showed me what a truly game is all about,arkham city was goody too and fifa was the same as pro evoloution and i was overslept again.so my favourite game of the year is skyward sword!

    1. and i say get a life! games arent only for graphics so if u want GRAPHICS then buy a wiiU in the future and dont trolling like the ps fanboys. loser(s)

      1. games arent only for graphics, if you want graphics, get a WiiU?

        smh, peter, do you ever wonder why peope troll you as much as they do?

        1. It’s funny because Peteriuss got a really good point. Those graphic fags says that Wii U sucks but all they usually cares about is graphics, but now when Nintendo has the best Hardware out there they still say that it sucks.

          1. im not dissagreeing with you but, telling graphics whores that graphics dont make a game, and then proceeding to tell them to get a WiiU if they want graphic is Stupid, i get that the WiiU is going to be stronger than any console of this current gen, but microsoft and sony havent released any specs for their console. plus, what happen to gameplay over graphics? now that nintendo has HD graphics fanboy are going to troll like PS360 trolls?? irony, the thing you hated most is the thing you become

            and yes i MEANT thing.

      2. my favourite games were mainly on gamecube not PS3…

        PS3 graphics > Gamecube graphics

        that proves that It’s not about graphics… It’s about plot and gameplay and how good it is.

    2. peteriuss plays playstation 3

      The infamous Nintendo ass boy peteriuss has finally admitted to playing PS3. After all you’re bullshit about never playing 1 or a 360. You heard it here first folks.

  6. XD voting lets you enter a prize draw were you could win a LTD Edition 360.

    look like a FANBOY will finally own a 2nd console and get to dick ride it XD

        1. I want that LTD Edition! I’ve always wanted all systems. But I didn’t have enough money when they were new and now Wii U is around the courner and Vita will soon be released.

          1. I entered to win it too, just so an Xbox fan DOESN’T win it XD. I could also never open it and sell it for big bucks in like 20 years :)

      1. That is EXACTLY what I’m doing too. I mean jeez I only have so much money! I’ve killed oot, star fox sm3dl, and mk7……now what do I do? Lol

        1. Resident Evil maybe? I’m just trying to get one right now, I’m carving extremely accurate Master Swords out of wood for people (the first one I made (which is mine haha) is mounted on my wall, gunna make a Hylian Shield to go over it :D)

      1. It would be the biggest shame if FIFA Soccer won out of any other game… because all they do every year is just add few bits.

  8. Skyward Sword. Just loved that game so much…..unfortunately the multiple fanboys of shooters will vote for the crap such as MW3 and BF3. Haven’t played Skyrim, don’t know what all the fuss is about. Same with Minecraft.

    1. Every little vote counts… just vote Skyward because it makes a massive difference to go against Skyrim.

      BAFTA is a massive known thing so if Skyward wins then Zelda games will be better known.

      Skyward is the best of them anyway. I may have voted MW3 but Skyward is way better.

  9. Um…surely the more important award would be the BAFTA (of BAVGA) for Best Game rather than the publically voted (ie COD fanboys voted) Game of the Year award. It’s like the Golden Joysticks at its worst.

  10. Why is MInecraft up there?
    I really like it, but it’s hardly superb. It was fine until they started to make it like an RPG.
    That’s why mods exist… >.>

    The ones I’d like to see win are Portal 2, Skyward Sword, LA Noire and possibly Arkham…..
    POSSIBLY.

  11. it’s almost saddening that FPS games, minecraft, or skyrim will likely get game of the year. MW3, aka MW1.5.2, was not that great (except survival mode), BF3 i don’t know much about but i expect it’s like any other FPS, minecraft has been around for awhile so i feel that it shouldn’t be eligible for more than one year (it was also UK’s pc GotY in 2010 i believe), and skyrim has more bugs than the amazon rainforest and has what is possibly the most annoying video game fanbase i’ve ever seen in my life (Well they used to be annoying, but then they took an arrow to the knee -SHOOTS SELF-). i want zelda to win, but i’d be ok if batman, LA noire, portal, or uncharted got it

    1. Skyrim jokes are over used like with this…

      I used to not make arrow in the knee jokes… but then i took an arrow to tha knee.

      Who else sees how over used it is in youtube?

    1. I garantee you MW3 and FIFA will not win… because everyone hated MW3 which was rated 2.6 on the meta critic user reviews and FIFA soccer 12 is just a patched version of FIFA soccer 11.

      I bet Portal 2 would win… i voted Skyward anyway because it was epic.

  12. I loved Skyward Sword! Sadly, I kind of thought the map was small and felt myself revisiting the same places a bit irritating, and after playing it I still think the best Zelda game is OoT/3D… And unlike biased Nintendo fanboys, I haven’t played any of the other games except Portal 2 so I can’t say it’s the best in the list, but I do think it deserves to be in the list. :)

  13. I worked on Zelda in the translation team. It’s such a huge shame that it has just dropped off the map since it’s been released, considering how much work and time we all put into it. It would be really awesome if we could get a BAFTA…

  14. Hm…..this is a tough one…….Skyward sword…? Skyrim…? Portal 2….? Uncharted 3….? Minecraft? UUGGHH…..I CAN’T CHOOOSSEEEEEEE!!!!!!

    (well, we can iron out COD, Fifa, and Battlefield easily…)

  15. My vote goes to Portal 2. I love Skyrim and got many hours of play time out of it, but its bugs were its downfall. Skyward Sword just hasn’t grabbed me, every time I go to play it, I can’t manage to play for more than 15 minutes before turning it off. Portal 2 on the other hand, in my mind, is a perfect game. I’ve beaten it 4 times within the first week I got it and each time was as good as the last.

  16. Legend of Zelda SUCKS!
    It’s the most useless & stupid (shit) videogame created (& their ugly & needless loser-elfish boy).
    Zelda are scum, dumb morons & gangster assholes.(Their brainless fans, characters, etc are weak-minded, sore losers with low IQ)
    All of their games, cartoons, etc are all shit, crap, garbage, rubbish & suck-ass.
    They must be removed from this face of this planet.
    Zelda & (shit) Link (& their fans, forever) SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS, SUCKS,
