1 - A no brainer,
what do folks expect from the best game ever made? Uncharted is what games in this gen should be like. Period.

And Killzone 2. People forgot that game also came out this year? Killzone 2 is a GOTY material along with yes, Uncharted 2.

Killzone 2 is GOTY material, that's for sure, but I think Uncharted 2 really blew people away like no game ever did before.

But if MW2 wins GOTY..... I throw the internet into a fire while cursing Infinity Ward with a satanic human sacrifice

Uncharted 2, inFAMOUS are my top GOTY contenders personally. Killzone 2 was really good in a lot of ways, but Uncharted 2 and inFAMOUS were both fantastic in the gameplay department. I can't really think of any other game that comes close to all 3 of these games.

I can see a few places giving MW2 GOTY. Gametrailers, Edge and Eurogamer (maybe) will probably give GOTY to MW2.

1.6 - Best Game EVER made indeed, take a look
www.gamestats.com

Go to the Highest Rated section. It's funny, even with all the PS3 detractors out there (like Edge, and every site that nitpicked this game), it was still able to topple Zelda OoT, which was the best game ever according to gamestats, until UC2 came out. That's something that only happens once every 10 years, so it's safe to say that this is the game of the decade.

I wonder what the MW2 reviews are going to be like though.

But Uncharted 2 is my GOTY hands down.

1.12 - Nothing will be able to compete with uncharted 2 this year.
1-Uncharted 2( Game sites will look stupid if this is not game of the year!)
2-Killzone 2( Best FPS that I've played so far. visually stunning!)
3-Resident evil 5( say what you want, cause I luv this game!)

1.13 - the only thing
that i didn't like about uncharted 2 is that it didn't came sooner , is what this gen needed to establish how the future games quality should be

1.14 - The thing with Modern Warfare 2's reviews is...
There will be no bias against it because its a multiplat.

It should easily be able to outscore Uncharted 2 if they're both equally awesome games.

Just look at GTAIV, the worst GTA in years and it gets the best scores. Shame.

But we'll see what happens.

1.15 - U2 goty please
Last two Goty competitors are AC2 and MW 2. Watch AC is looking pretty good and MW is mutliplat halo. Hope U2 wins it deserves it more than than ACTIVISON'S cod MW2. I can say this without playing it because we know what MW2 will bring.

Good for UC2. It may not be quite as good a game as MGS4, but being the second best game on the PS3 is no small honor.

Superb...

Uncharted 2 and MGS4 are my 2 favorite games this gen. Followed closely by Demon's Souls and Valkyria Chronicles.

They're all PS3 exclusives, I know, but that's a coincidence. I mean... what's left? U2 beats GeoW 2, I'm not a big fan of Halo, I like SSBB but it's not my favorite, Then there's GTA4, Bioshock and Fallout 3, which are GREAT games, easily in my top 10 this gen, but I still prefer the four I mentionned earlier.

GTA 4 shouldn't even be in your top 10. It was completely boring and overhyped to no end. It only got those reviews because they were to afraid to give a Gta game anything other than a 10. That, or reviewers were being payed to give it.

Substitute Uncharted 1 for Valkyrie Chronicles(never played) and you pretty much have my list. Throw in Infamous to make up my top five. \

It's no coincidence that PS3 happens to have the best games this gen!

I dunno... I kinda liked GTA4. It was more mature, atmospheric and story-driven than the usual GTA games. It felt like a good crime drama movie.

I used to hate on this game a lot, but then I realized I only hated the kids that played it just to kill people and look gangsta, not the game itself.

mgs4 sold that fast because it had the mgs name behind it.

i suspect gow 3 will sell similar to mgs4, and gt5 will just blow away all ps3 exclusives in terms of sales

5.1 - yea
yea GOW 3 will sell similar if not more than MGS 4 first week,should be interesting to see the LTD for it. GT 5 will destroy any other ps3 game and i don't think anything but a GT 6 will ever top it. I predict GT 5's first week will sell 3-4 million.

I'm a huge fan of the God of War series and GOW3 is one of my most anticipated games of 2010, but I have to say I really doubt that it'll sell MGS4 numbers (4.5+ million).... God of War 1 sold a little over 3 million, and God of War 2 sold around the 2.5+ million mark... so pretty much I'm expecting around those numbers for God of War 3.

Since GOW3 will be $60 dollar Single Player Action game, for the most part I think that it'll mainly be real fans of the franchise that have already purchased the past installments that actually go out and BUY it and not just rent it... hopefully the God of War Collection creates new fans and increases the potential sales even more for GOW3.

Your right AclayPS3 but this is the problem with fanboys they all think if it doesn't sell 8 billion in 2 days its a flop but Sony, M$ and Nintendo are 90% of the time happy with there games selling 2.5 - 3 million copies and that's all that matters none of these fanboy dont make a dime off anything sold so why do they care so much about what it sold its so unreal it's not funny.

I dunno guys... I mean piracy really affected the sales. I can count 10 people now that I know bought the game pirated (especially the 2nd one) since the next gen had started and people spent more on those games or gathered money to buy a PS3 or 360.. And last gen showed that even though the install base was more than 100 million, games hardly sold more than 2-3 million.

Also, a lot of people were hyped about the game, but never played it, which is a similar case with games like SOTC. I think it's a great move for Sony to rerelease GOW1 & 2 for those who haven't played the previous games. This will really help the sales of 3. The only concern I have about this is the fact that it's scheduled for March and even GT5 lands... GOW is big, but GT is huge and can really hurt the games sales. Hopefully Sony at least gives a months buffer for both or at least introduce a pack (dunno GT5+GOW3 for 100$??).

Anyways, I am picking both so sales don't concern me... Both are gonna be awesome.

I care about sales because a lot of sales = a lot of people to play with online. I like multiplayer more than SP, so sales do matter for me.

Make Jak 4 for the PS3 already. Jak 2 was in my eyes, one of the best shooter/platformer ever. Also, the free-roaming was outstanding.
