3 months until MW2 and CoD4 is still in the top 10 and still selling at £40.
And people wonder why the price rise!

GOTY!
Kidding, Scribblenauts is the only likely GOTY.

Those games are for girls!
Everyone knows that the first condition for any GOTY is that it must have guns.

Scribblenauts has guns. If you want it to have guns.

Good observation. COD4 is still raking it in – it’s crazy just how game sales have changed in the last few years. Has it been common in the past for certain games to endlessly hang around the top 5/10 in such a way?
Wii Resorts was DAY ONE. Best game i’ve played in a while. Simple, responsive design brilliance. Thank you Nintendo.

Scribblenauts will have girls with machine guns.
Or zombies with katanas.
AND brown.
(brown might be a lie)

@ Prof:
The only games that I can think of are FIFA or PES, but they only usually hang around for maybe 6 or 7 months.

Interesting thought. It will have nightscopes and kneepads.
So all the good bits from MW2 will be there.
Generic gameplay won’t however.

Ah well…
Generic gameplay is the second prerequisite for any GOTY, so it looks like scribbly noughts will miss out again.
