Poll Will Beyond Two Souls Win GOTY on GS? (95 votes)

Yes 23%
No 77%

Damn, I just finished the game and it is easily my personal GOTY. No other game hooked me this year like B2S did.

It would seem that 9.0 rated Beyond has a damn good chance to snag PS3 its 4th exclusive GOTY.

Not having played it, I'd say it won't win GotY but it could get an award or two.

Going up against:

  1. GTAV
  2. TLOU
  3. Bioshock Infinite
  4. Fire Emblem: Awakening
  5. Ni No Kuni

I really doubt it. I have yet to play it, but this year had some killer releases.

Ni No Kuni is nothing but an archaic JRPG with nice art. :/

I just love Quantic Dream's games. I just finished Beyond: Two Souls, and I can safely say that I like it even more than The Last of Us. That's just me though. I hope Sony buys Quantic Dream.

thax to Tom's troll review tho it won't which is a shame. GOTY will likely go to GTAV automatically due to the lack of TLOU being in the running.

I have not played it, so I have no clue... I would give it to TLOU myself.... but I dont think there is a clear cut winner this year.

No but it looks pretty cool from playing the demo and watching a few 'let's play' vids. I'm more intrigued to play Heavy Rain based on the gameplay vids I saw. No one can deny PS3 definitely ended this gen with a nice variety of worthy exclusives.

Son, that is the biggest lie I have seen on Gamespot. Ni No Kuni is easily the best JRPG this gen 9/10 for good reason.

It was rated an 8.0, AA. And other titles have been rated 9.0 AAA in the same year. They won't put it in the running because it will make them look uncredible as a review source and incompetent as professional reviewers.

@Stevo_the_gamer said:

@casharmy: Why wouldn't Last of Us be in the running?

If GS was to allow TLOU become the GOTY they would become a laughing stock as a review source because it would mean they have no clear or logical method of how they validate scores.

8.0 < 9.0 but still 8.0 GOTY > 9.0?

I don't think GS will do that to themselves even if they believe TLOU deserves it.

@casharmy: Why would it make them look less credible when they believe it was a great game? Game of the year is debated by the collection of GS editors; not just the reviewer. Was GS unprofessional when SMG2 didn't win GOTY even though it scored a prime 10?

I actually think it's the only way GS could bring themselves back to a creditable status.

Right now they look like shock-reviewers for extra traffic.

Except they've given GOTY to games scoring lower than 9.5 and 10 in years where other games did so I don't see how this is any different. It's pretty common knowledge that GOTY is based on a sites overall opinion so of course it can differ to a single persons review.

I think TLOU will win. Although I was playing Beyond 2 souls with a friend, it is pretty intense so far. I have been playing as Aiden and I think I'm getting more out of it than my friend playing as Jodie. I feel scared at parts that my friend isn't since I worry about Jodie more since I can't directly control her.

No chance in hell.

Right now it's between Grand Theft Auto V, The Last of Us, Bioshock Infinite, and Gone Home.

No its a pretty shitty game. Its the gameplay that kills it. Heavy Rain was so much better in that regard.

9 is a great score, but I'd imagine something given a 10 would get the title of GOTY.

It will probably come down to a battle between GTAV and Mario 3D World. Unless GS is going for the controversial angle, then Gone Home.

"So far" Its between GTAV, TLOU and Beyond.

I'd give it to TLOU "now" but since GTAV and Beyond are 9.0 on GS, I think they will give it to GTAV cuz it's hard to disagree with GTAV when it comes to discussions about GOTY, on the other hand, Beyond would have a hard time to convince everyone in GS since it has mixed opinions.

But Im gonna wait to play the next-gen games to decide the GOTY for this year.

I have a feeling that Gone Home will be the critical darling for the year as far as awards are concerned.

Im 95% sure a PS3 exclusive will win GOTY on GS but the main question is which game? PS3 had a lot of Quality releases this year ( lulz nogames360 nothing as always )

PS3 this year:

  • Beyond Two Souls AAAE
  • Puppeteer AAAE
  • Ni No Kuni AAAE
  • Last of Us AAE
  • Disgaea D2 AAE

There is still Ratchet and Clank Into Nexus and GT6

Gone Home has more chance of winning GOTY and that game was shit.

I hope MS does just to see you change your stance. I liked IP and Heavy Rain, but I have never and will never pay full retail for one their games. Not enough replay value for $60 imo.

It wouldn't even win that cos Cage's writing isn't at actual movie level. People just say that cos it's in comparison to the rest of videogame stories which frankly have terribly low standards

Given that Gamespot decides its GOTY as a group and that the reception to this game is incredibly mixed, this premise is highly unlikely.
