how did gears get GOTY

I love Gears, but I'm wondering the same thing. There were too many other awesome games that didn't have all the problems that Gears has.

rabid fanboyism?
what i don't get is how endwar didn't even get a nom (for strategy game)

WOW was Fallout 3 close.......I still think Fallout 3 deserves GOTY instead of Gears. It's got a deeper story (save for the shitty ending), it has a vast huge world to explore. It has an amazing replay value (im on 130 hours) and the wasteland is huge and expansive. Great character customization, levels, perks. I just think it's an overall better game =/ (I'm not saying Gears 2 is bad though :D)

grrr fanboys! my vote was in for gta iv, i still to this day think it is superior to any other game. gears 2 was good, but not enough to snag goty. fallout 3 deserves its second place. as for arcade, i never played braid, so i can't say much, but geometry wars 2 took my vote. congrats to all the winners and heres hoping 2009 will bring bigger, better, and dare i say, more badass games.

Gears of War 2 for GOTY? What a fucking joke. way to help us show that they really need to fix the multiplayer portion of the game. How can a game win an award for being the most disappointing (for the multiplayer,) and then turn around and get GOTY?

Aye...it shouldn't have been on the list. Especially as they omitted Castle Crashers from the Best XBLA game for a similar reason.

You got to be shittin' me. Gears of war 2 for GOTY? How the fuck do you work that out?!
It appears first on the disappointing list, Doesn't it make sense that is shouldn't be GOTY?
