GJ09: PlayStation GOTY

Sorry Sackboy
Sackboy's cutesy charm didn't work on you PlayStation hard nuts, it seems, as Sony's latest answer to Mario was forced to stand aside for brutal shooter Killzone 2 as the PlayStation Game of the Year.

I'm quite happy about that actually as Killzone has really grown on me what with it's excellent online play, but I thought LBP was a little disappointing as the actual platforming wasn't that great in my opinion.
fanboy on 30 Oct '09
Fanboys probably voted for it because there was so much hype about it. LBP and MGS4 were more deserving for this award imo.

Well at least the top 3 PS games were infact exclusives and not multi platforms.

Well I never voted, and to be honest I wasn't a big fan of KZ2 for the first couple of months, but it is really superb online and has lasted me ages.

MGS4 maybe deserves it more, but I think too many people dismiss Killzone 2.
fanboy on 30 Oct '09
Im soo happy this game one.. I was hoping it won "the game of the year" buts at least it one on a catagory.. Congrats Guerrilla Games and Sony for wining "Best Playstation GOTY"!! They really put effort on the game.. it shows Very Happy

Killzone 2 is amazing and was deffo a worth contender =) I still think MGS4 should have won though. That game is immense! Smile
jamifer777 on 31 Oct '09
Personally i wouldn't mind if either KZ2 or MGS4 takes the crown but KZ2 really deserves it imo. Best FPS i've played, and the online is really good.

I liked Killzone 2 initially, and the graphics are still great. But the controls are too heavy and as such, I can't adapt to it. I might trade it in soon, it's just taking up space in my room. I think MGS4 or LBP should have won it, MGS4 in particular.

Sackboy's actual platforming was a sack of s**t. Funny thing is I very much enjoyed the product as a whole anyway, but it doesn't compare on the platforming front to any of the classics. Not even close.

Game of the Year was Metal Gear Sold.

Killzone lacked finesse - just brainless, but fun blasting.

Sackboy? A sack of pooh, poor platforming hijinx, plus who has time to create intricate levels?! Media Molecule?! waste of money mate!!!
