Re: Game of the year?
You can't hate people for liking Halo 3: It's popular, got good reviews, and is still selling well. (At one point more people in the US owned Halo 3 than PS3)
I'm a bit surprised DiRT won, to be honest... It's got great graphics, but no real multiplayer to speak of, no car customization, and Forza's physics are a tad better. It's almost as if they thought they had too much 360 content on the winner's list...
Spike's VGAs have come under criticism in the past for promoting games that had JUST come out (sometimes to bad reviews AND sales) as nominees for GotY due to advertising revenue, as well as for blacklisting WWE games when SpikeTV signed with TNA and the TNA game was announced. Maybe they didn't want to be accused of being 360FanBoys?
