What the...? An MMO poll? So, are we getting both WoW and WoW:WotLK in the game of the year poll? --- http://www.court-records.net/manga/4koma/(eng)4koma2.png Hail FastFalcon, our new guru overlord! |

so how do we feel about Brawl and a bunch of nobodies beating out the
stacked as hell multiplatform poll in votals? heck, even MGS4 and LBP
alone almost topped the multiplatform poll. woo comin' in third --- xyzzy |

Brawl will win (puke), but Fallout 3 has a real chance at getting
second place above MGS4. I don't think it *will*, but it's got a chance. --- TurnTurnTurn your brain in. ~*ST*~ Now Playing: Mother 3, MGS: Portable Ops, Chrono Trigger, Mario Kart Wii |

You're being silly, and I'd like for you to stop it. Real MMO Sites don't even cover crap like runescape, maple story and that Flyff game because they aren't real mmorpgs. They're crap for non mmorpg players that can be described as mmorpg lite if anything. --- Bacon, please just give me purgatory already.

So anyone think Bacon will put both WoW on the poll? This seems like a
waste since he included WotLK on the PC poll and everyone knows WoW
would win the MMORPG poll. Looking at last year's poll http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2991 WoW is about .6% lower than last year. Though last year had Flyff while this year has Warhammer. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB7%20BOP.xls Congratulations to FastFalcon for winning the guru contest, you are the best among the best. |

Warhammer is better then Fly so its about the same. And even though Bacon fails, I doubt he'd put a game from 2004 in best game of 2008 poll --- Bacon, please just give me purgatory already. MyWorldisCrono has already been suspended for 7 days, the length of purg. |

Talking about 2004 and GotY's: http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=1871 =) More seriously... http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2246 http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2252 http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2253 ...there should only be WoW:WotLK based on this. Though that was CJay, but I still doubt SB would mess that kind of thing up. He included WoW:tBC last year because it was new, not because WoW won the MMORPG-poll...same thing this year. --- FastFalcon05 absolutely decimated me in the Guru challenge.

So, since today's a dead day, what all are expected to be major players
for GotY in 2009? Per system or overall, either is fine. --- FastFalcon05 absolutely decimated me in the Guru challenge. How bad was it? ...I don't want to talk about it. |

I've been thinking about this. 2009 should be a battle between RE5 and FF13. nothing else should come close. --- xyzzy "I hope you are this idiot only in the internet ^__^" -linkhatesganon |

I didn't think FF13 was supposed to come out until 2010...if you're
right, then yeah, that probably take it. Is RE5 multi-platform too? If
so, that'll be our GotY-poll right there... ...what's the word on Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3? Are they due this year? Any big 360-exclusives? I understand Nintendo's not announced anything big yet either...just weird to think FF13 could take it THAT easily. --- FastFalcon05 absolutely decimated me in the Guru challenge.

it'll make it here for Christmas. everything always does. Wii GOTY is a lot more wide open than anything I can ever remember. the only confirmed game that I can see appealing to GF is Madworld, and that's like No More Heroes level. I'm sure Nintendo will announce something that'll be coming out for the holidays but right now it's a wasteland. --- xyzzy "I hope you are this idiot only in the internet ^__^" -linkhatesganon |

SC2 before D3 is what I hear, but I'd say 2010 is more likely for SC2 anyway. this is Blizzard, after all. --- xyzzy "I hope you are this idiot only in the internet ^__^" -linkhatesganon |

the only other AAA game that seems possible for 2009 is God of War 3,
but given what we've seen of 1 and 2 I'm not sure if it can really be
in that RE5 class. but I'll say this - given that GOW3 is *the* PS3 title, much like MGS4 was for a while, I'd say it's very likely that it ends up much stronger than 1 or 2. --- xyzzy "I hope you are this idiot only in the internet ^__^" -linkhatesganon |

I actually enjoy this poll. It's good to give some new games respect,
and now we can make better skewed predictions of what happens in the
last of the GotY-polls. It needed L4D and maybe Wii Fit though. LBP is doing everything it can to make MGS4 look great though! Also, with Braid and World of Goo doing pretty poorly in a poll LBP is dominating, look for MM9 to bomb in a poll where the game that easily doubled LBP will be a distant second place. Last...what would the poll have been like last year? It would have been a great chance to see Assassin's Creed in action, at least (probably the biggest snub from last year's GotY-polls). --- FastFalcon05 absolutely decimated me in the Guru challenge.
