- I dunno. Why are you creating seperate articles for each platform? There is no need for that. Thunderbrand 17:43, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
Yea there is a need, if i creat them in one, it won't look good, it needs to look professional, if i seperate them people can know what year and what platfrom of GAME OF THEY YEAR, anyway like what i did?:D the way i did it, seems the right way
I think we need a per medium (magazine/website) GOTY article. Fskn 12:41, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Please, update this page!
This stub needs to be updated.....badly. It has links from 2004 in it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.229.50.193 (talk) 04:24, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
Super Mario Galaxy did not win the majority of the Game of the Year awards, Bioshock actually did. Regardless of who won, neither should be listed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.227.77.144 (talk) 10:34, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

- Bullshit. I put up a list on Talk: Super Mario Galaxy#Game of the Year Roundup, using only NOTABLE critic awards, not those you awarded on your personal blog. Prove me wrong. Wikipedian06 (talk) 08:03, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] AIAS
Why are the AIAS awards in this article? It's an obvious bias, and Wikipedia is no place for promoting the views of the AIAS (especially outside of its own article), and not when there are dozens of other media organizations (see IGN, Gamespot, etc.) whose selections are far more notable within the gaming community. (Look at the GameFAQs boards whenever IGN and Gamespot announce their picks, and compare that to after AIAS announces their picks. Few people care about AIAS because (1) they are a relatively obscure organization [1] [2]; (2) their picks are announced very late -- into the next calendar year instead of at the end of the year; and (3) a lot of GameFAQs users have discounted their credibility due to their preference towards first-person shooters, with 7 out of 11 GOTY winners being of that genre.)

- Mere inclusion of information relevant to the subject, and notable to anyone searching for Game of the Year does NOT imply bias, and certainly not an "obvious" one. Please note that the inclusion of the AIAS selections did not come at the expense of any other list of awards. Your personal opinions of the AIAS awards themselves are moot (not to mention incorrect, but that doesn't matter here); feel free to add any other overall Game of the Year listings from any other publication or organization noted in the article, as that is the point - to inform the reader.

- I have undone your revision. If you feel like adding the other publications' or organizations' overall GOTY lists, I would suggest removing the "see below" next to the AIAS listing, and turn the list of publications/organizations into a table of contents. Fifty7 (talk) 23:08, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
