The VGAs are like the MTV Movie Awards: everyone watches it for the lolz, but it is fanbased without any real critical value compared to the likes of the Cannes Film Festival Awards (ie what we would consider the ideal avatar of Videogame Journalism, which, to me, does not exist as of yet).
I like that people in this thread are not expecting much, so that way, when the announcement does come, a lot of the forum dwellers on this web site are either going to be taken by suprise and blown away, or will just remain neutral .actionjunkie10I dunno about you, but that sounds like a decent strategy at either not getting disappointed or getting majorly surprised. Either way, it's a win-win situation to those that stand by this.
Knowing GS, they award GOTY for revolutions rather than evolutions: this kicks out Batman Arkham City, Uncharted 3 and Gears 3 out of the contest arena for me.
GOTY will probably end up between Dark Souls, Skyrim, and Zelda SS, which offer enough innovation in their games to break the mould of sequeldom and pave their way to GOTY.
