[QUOTE="GodModeEnabled"]The GOTY hasnt been released yet (Mass Effect)Demodocus
Mass effect will probably be my personal GOTY but when Ryan Davis says if he could only play one, he'd pick Rock Band over Mass Effect I just get the feeling that Mass Effect doesn't have the universal appeal require for GOTY.
Metroid Prime won GOTY in 2001 though, and I don't think a lot of people would argue that it has universal appeal. It's a pretty polarizing game experience when you think about it. A lot of people just can't get into it. I think an RPG with more action and shooting elements (Mass Effect) definitely appeals to a larger audience though.
I think it really depends on whether Orange box is eligible or not. It's really multiple games rather than one, and it'd be weird to crown it as the "Game of the Year". I'm gonna guess Mass Effect or Super Mario Galaxy, although Halo 3 certainly has a chance.
FlaminDeath - What do you mean? GameSpot has never awarded Halo GOTY.
