I can’t say I’ve played all of these games but I did play Red Dead Redemption and it fully desereved the win for Game of the Year. Shocking, I know, that I’m not bummed that Black Ops didn’t win it. But Black Ops did take home Best Shooter. You can’t win them all.
Thoughts on the winners? Any big shockers for you?

Im so glad Red Dead got GotY. Was def a well deserved award. That game was amazing. Im kind of upset about Best character though. Theres no way Woods is better than Ezio or John Marston.
