Gamespot GotY 2008 is Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
GameSpot's Best Games of 2008: Game of the Year Nominees
Well deserved, they gave you the reasons why it is better than any other game of 2008. We have to wait till January for IGN.

GameSpy GotY results with top 10
GameSpy - Overall Awards Recap

1. Fallout 3 (PC/360/PS3)
2. Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning (PC)
3. Left 4 Dead (PC/360)
4. Gears of War 2 (360)
5. LittleBigPlanet (PS3)
6. Grand Theft Auto IV (PC/360/PS3)
7. Rock Band 2 (360/PS3)
8. World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King (PC)
9. Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (PS3)
10. Professor Layton and the Curious Village (NDS)

They really screwed that up. The only reason WFB online is up there in second is because they have a huge advertising deal with them, seriously how is Rock Band 2 better than MGS4, LBP and Warhammer online are not better than MGS4 or GTA4.

Where's Resistance 2?

one of the best online games for the ps3 out atm. 60 player team/single deathmatch, 8 player co-op, etc.

What's not good about it?

Fallout 3, i love it, but there is something about the game, that makes me want to hate it.

Thats basically the only game i got in 08 other than brawl but i hate the wii so

Fallout 3 was good, but only took like 12 hours. GTA IV was better IMO.

Edit: I'll have to get round to actually playing Gears of War 2, from what I've played so far it's pretty meh.

I need to finish moar of those 08 gaymes before I pass judgment, but here goes:

4) Little Big Planet: again, very jewnique. Loads of fun to play with others.
3) Dead Space: great storyline, amazing graphics, just an all-round good game.
2) Patapon: was very unique, innovative and completely addictive
1) GTA IV: fantastic game - lived up to expectations for me

Probably will add after playing: Gears of War 2, Fable 2, Fallout 3, Far Cry 2

NB: GTA IV isn't really my GOTY - need to play more of this year's titles first.

Look GTA IV is great and everything but.... I feel as if it didnt do that well it terms of being able to change the way you look and your cars.. We all know grand theft auto isn't about doing up cars, but no one wants to look the same.. The clothing scene was not all that good, but it was okay...

GUITAR HERO 3 LEGENDS OF ROCK!!!!!!

Giutar hero world tour is great too, just the range of songs is crappy.

except for Rise Against 'Re-education through Labour'

Guitarfreaks owns Guitar Hero's ass anyday.
More songs and more ways to fuck over the key sequence by increasing speed, fading keys and whatever the fuck they do to hammer hardcore players, etc.
