and the winner IS....

For instance, my brother was trying to complete a challenge by killing 3 bears and shoot them in the head. While he was looking for the bears, the game put him in a mission out of the blue. That is extremely strange oneman, I haven't had that ever happen to me, sounds like a glitch or maybe he didn't see he was running into a mission icon. huh..strange

He was doing a side quest (Killing 3 bears), not a mission.

BO = Game of the Year

Peace Walker was better than Ghost of Sparta.  And BC2 wins out over Reach.

slow motion when you draw your gun? That's when you activate dead eye, if that's what you're talking about, but its an option and its more for a dramatic effect and what do you mean you can't explore every section of the map? I honestly don't know what your brother is doing with that or the side missions but I haven't seen anything like that happen.

A game doesn't have to be difficult to win GOTY, I agree with you saying its not a challenging game but I played GOWIII, finished it and put it aside. RDR I played months after months and that's before I started playing multiplayer. If I had to do it over again, I would spend money on RDR hands down, luckily I didn't spend a dime on GOWIII, I just borrowed it, but again this is just my opinion.

Im kinda mad that God of War 3 didn't win Game of the Year. There was no game more epic than God of War 3.

If you missed the awards show, the winners are highlighted in Yellow on my first post, scroll up to see them!

After this years VGA awards, 2 solid surprises hit the stage.

Game of the Year, Best PS3 Game, Best Original Score & Best Action Adventure Game goes to God of War 3.

I am so disappointed that $60 went into this garbage. For all the problems that MW2 has, MW2 is miles better than this cheap looking shooter. Servers suck, party system broken, connections are garbage, respawn system is broken, a huge spamfest, no skill needed to shoot, weapon options are lame, etc., etc., etc.  BO is by far the most overhyped peice of crap this generation.

meh... mw2 is no where near as good lol.. ok u may think the graphics sucks... and yeah tings such as the party system is broken.. and the servers are terrible... and the spanwning can be terribl at times... but mw2 had those probems too, apart from the parties... and thse probs was nearly as bad back then anyway... and how does back ops require no skill to shooot? whats the difference in how u shoot from mw2 and in black ops?... people use more skill in this game than mw2 though... i remember seeing a vid of how esy it was to get tons of kills.. some guy just stayed in the same spot... at the top of the bigger building in scrapyard.. with a nnoobtube and 1man1army... justspamming nobtubes around the map.. again and again.. while planting alt of claymores too he ended up with 66-3.. and u say black ops requires no skill? lol.. black ops may have alot of problems with non gameplay related... only a few things are annoying about the gameplay such as the respawning and the servers.. howver apart from that treyarch has got rid of the frustrating things hat was in mw2........ blck ops > mw2

Polyphony Digital - This is the only studio which has never cared about how much money is spent on a game. They alway put out the absolute best. They make one game and they make it better than anyone in the world. That is why they are the best studio. They care only about quality and the consumers.   2. Insomniac Games - By far the most advanced on the PS3. They were the first to uttilize the quality and power of the PS3. They pride themselves on cutting edge. The graphics of resistence and R&C are proof of their modus operandi. Not only do they put out quality, but they churn games out like they are on the Model T assembly line.   3. Sony Santa Monica - Need anyone say more. This is Sony's flagship studio. Three words - GOD OF WAR.   The next would be Jaffe's studio, Eat Sleep Play, which will join the list of top studios when he releases the new Twisted Metal. Tean Ninja is also on the brink of being considered one of the best (except they only make 1 game). Bungie have lost their funding source by leaving Microsft. All other studio are commercial garbage. .

Well they can't nominate it for next years because it will already be more than a year old, so where else can they put it?

I just can't see Polyphony getting that much credit, I know of two Gran Tourismo games, this years and I think it was number 4, on the PS2 that kept on getting delayed and delayed. I know most people probably don't care about games being delayed... but if the studio is so confident to post a launch date and then eventually end up delaying it 2 or 3 times kinda makes me think that they're not quite on the ball as they should be, to me that shows no responsibility. Most companies post a deadline, why do game studios get away from not meeting theirs, and the consumers are the ones getting crapped on.

I'm probably in too deep on this one but I hear all my family and friends frustrations when they hear a favorite game is being delayed.. like Bain lol.
