Game of the Year 2012 award goes to GW2!
Just like that guy from blizzard on facebook…
When the guy that made the Diablo2 was unhappy with that Diablo3 the blizzard director posted on facebook “f* that loser” and all blizzard employes liked LOL, i guess those blizzard employes are also on this forums haha
Oh wait the ppl bought 10 milion diablo3 in the 1st week just because of diablo2 and the director said “f* that loser” when talking about the guy that made Diablo2 isnt that nice?
Good luck on Diablo4 oh wait… fail!

Or like this studio, ahem…- Anet! -, selling gw2 and telling people it would take “everything we loved from gw1” but actually doesn’t, isn’t that nice?
Good luck on extension oh wait… Fail!
Grats on MMO of the Year!
Another well deserved award, GW2 has most of the GOTY awards for 2012.
The flamers are just hilarious at this point when everyone is loving GW2 except for a few kids and immature adults stuck in boring, ugly pandaland
It’s also hilarious when people, regardless of their feelings for a game, think that because a non-gaming professional gives an award with no basis on how the determination was made, it somehow carries weight or is true… That’s why no one cares about MTV’s movie of the year award in lieu of say the Oscars or Golden Globes.
If you wanna go with that line of thought along with the “everyone loving X game” mass opinion, then metacritic which aggregates all the critic scores, puts Walking Dead at the top for 2012. If one critic’s opinion is truth, then an aggregate opinion of 60+ whatever critics must be truthier.
Also some food for thought, the Walking Dead is the lowest scoring GOTY on Metacritic since 2003, which means there are are at least 8 GOTYs better than the Walking Dead and however many games that scored better than it. GW2 has a 90% and is ranked 4th highest, it’s also the last game on the list which has a score of 90% or higher. Last year alone, there were 32 titles that scored 90% or higher which means between 2011 and 2012, there are about 35 titles that are just as good or better than GW2.
Sources matter… I generally prefer accolades from within the industry; as in professionals working in the gaming industry who vote what they think was the best games of the year. Last year, Skryim took home almost every industry accolade even though Arkham Asylum was Metacritic’s GOTY 2011. I’m anxious to see what GW2 gets… I think it’ll get a bunch, but there were some bold titles this year as well even if they didn’t hit all the high notes as well as some really well done or interesting titles (Hotline Miami, Journey, Crusader Kings II, etc).

RNG Wars 2, gj and congrats!
Best MMO I’ve ever played.
Grats on the award ArenaNet!
There is a reason WoW hit 13 mil and GW2 hasn’t even hit 2-3+ mil in box sales and I seriously doubt there are even over a mil active players.
Lineage 2 had over 17 million subscribers before 5 years, why all people talk about WoW. It is nothing special. And why Anet made game like WoW?
Gratz.
Game has a lot of issues still, but even more potential.
Can’t wait for Jan/Feb/March updates.
“A release is 7 days or less away or has just happened within the last 7 days…
These are the only two states you’ll find the world of Tyria.”

Lineage was for a different market.
This game was built primarily for western audiences.
Lineage was also PvP intense IIRC, which wouldn’t at all be beneficial for GW2’s target audience.
