Subject: Why is Halo 4 not a nominee for GOTY?

lxl Syphon lxl

I know it's a nominee for FPS and xbox game of the year but why is the best game of 2012 (IMO) not a nominee for the grand title of GOTY?

  • 12.07.2012 10:01 AM PDT

It is for IGN.

Currently studying Computer Science & Software engineering. Hope to work on mobile devices of the future! When a certain game's credits roll, look out for my name! ;)

You will -blam!- bricks when you see what game it is! =)

Because Doom won it again.

Because some people find it isn't worthy?
Thats not hard to understand.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

The Walking Dead game should win, the ending made me want to...

because its hard to be nominated for GOTY since there are hundreds of games that are made across all platforms, so it's hard to choose a nominee especially if it's a developers first game

Maybe just maybe because the singleplayer experience is lacking.

  • 12.07.2012 10:06 AM PDT

Fair play

Halo 4 is too casual friendly and broken to get my vote.

  • 12.07.2012 10:06 AM PDT

Because it lacks at just about everything.

For those looking to vent, get proper advice, or give it to those in need.

It's not really the best game of 2012 is why. I don't think you'd be wrong to nominate it. I wouldn't (I guess that depends on how many nominees there can be though) since I think there are at least five better games in 2012.

The Game

FPSs never seem worthy of GOTY to me.

  • 12.07.2012 10:11 AM PDT

I'm an Indonesian Halo (and other games) gamer!
Bhineka Tunggal Ika!!

It's kinda meh.

Not bad, mind you, but definitely doesn't qualify for GOTY.
XCOM on the other hand...

  • 12.07.2012 10:11 AM PDT

Because it's a terrible game, and it sucks.

Because Halo 4 is subpar when compared to its predecessors.

The best performance by a human male is lacking Michael Mando as Vaas Montenegro. Everything lacks Far Cry 3.

  • 12.07.2012 10:13 AM PDT

Too many reasons to list imo.

Yeah Far Cry 3 is one of the better games this year, but personally it still lacks in some categories. Though compared to the competition I can see it easily getting GoTY.

It was good but not great, unlike halo 1-3. Not great enough to be a GOTY nominee.

Indeed, so basically if there was an award for that it sure would have won big time.

  • 12.07.2012 10:22 AM PDT

Honestly, it should receive some sort of reward for being wasted potential.

  • 12.07.2012 10:27 AM PDT

Not surprised. Why? Are you surprised?

I know, but they don't seem worth it to ME. I just feel like there isn't too much you can do with with First Person Shooters. I haven't played Far Cry 3, but Borderlands 2 and Halo 4 don't seem worthy of GoTY to me.
Keep in mind I mean First Person Shooters only.
Dishonored is First Person, but not a Shooter and seems very worthy of GOTY to me.
