What do you guys think about GTA V not winning GOTY at IGN?

I think it's funny how IGN and Gamespot decide not to let GTA V have the GOTY award. They obviously don't want the best game of the year to win the award, so they choose some other rubbish games.

ign and gamespot are a set of nob heads all there good for is getting gameplay on new games but that's it there reviews are utter sh*te and this little show that fat slob Greg has got on ign is f*cking crap he's a c*nt and he tries to be funny when in actual fact he's not he doesn't realise people are laughing at him not with him. Yes I'm being harsh but
Exactly.but what people dont get is GTA 5 won 3 world know awards and nominateed for many and also got 300 Perfect scores including IGN-orant.Let's not forget the $1 BILLION! It earnt in 3 days

 

Exactly.Which made Every Game competiting with the Franchise useless,1bn in 3 days(72 f*ing hours),it took Black ops 2 15 days to ge a billion even Ghost that was expected to beat GTA 5 record "FAILED".

I don't really care about the opinions of such sites.

 

For me, GTA V is my GOTY. :)

This guy f*cking gets it.

 

It's hilarious how some of you are so quick to shoot-down the bad or good reviews for the game, and say they don't matter. But when it comes to an equally useless award, stop the f*cking presses! Someone hired to write about their opinion differs from mine!

Oh no! Their opinions didn't match yours! It's the end of the world! :panic:

 

It's not really an opinion. GTA is one of the best game series of all time so therefore when a GTA game is released, it should win GOTY. Maybe next time Rockstar releases a GTA game, they won't let the morons at IGN or Giant bomb play it before it's released. All they did was complain about the game, I don't know why they let them play it early.

This is the most idiotic, fanboy biased statement I have ever heard. GTA V hardly works. Online is a complete mess, and the only good part of single player is heists, which is done better in games that focus on it. They tried to add stealth features that failed terribly. The whole game has been a mess so far, and R* isn't doing anything, and won't do anything to fix single player.

I swear that I have cared about what game was awarded the GOTY award. Its never been a big deal to me and that has not changed here. I own GTA V and TLOU, and with the latter being awarded GOTY does not make feel like some moist little 13 year old Justin Bieber fangirl. It is what it is. Not being an asshole but I just don't see why its a big deal.

 

Its not the end of the world because GTA V didn't get that award. Its an excellent game (IMO) but its also a game with flaws and short-comings. In the eyes of IGN and probably many others, on or off this board, TLOU did things better than GTA V did.

It's not a complete mess at all, I enjoy it a lot and I play it every single day since it's been released.

 

If you hate it so much, why do you post here?

I don't think TLOU did anything better than GTA V did. I haven't played that game and I don't plan to, I don't think it looks good and I think it's very overrated. Any game naughty dog makes seems to always be just average and everyone seems to overrate it.

I think it's because PS3 doesn't have a lot of great exclusives, I do like some of their exclusive games but they are all pretty much just average games.

I don't hate it at all. I too play it all the time. However, the game is a mess and didn't deserve GOTY. I'm not necessarily saying the winners did, but GTA V is just too broken to win it. Just because I like it, doesn't mean it didn't fail in many aspects. The part about "when a GTA game gets released, it should win GOTY" is just a complete fanboy post. Face the facts; there will be games better then GTA. There are many different companies, with many different talents. R* attempted to leave their comfort zone and add stuff to the game, like stealth, and they failed terribly.

While your opinion has been read and its respected, but just come off sounding like a ticked off fanboy. If you haven't played TLOU why else would you sit up here and say that it hasn't done anything better if you don't have the experience with said game to back this up? I wouldn't say that the Uncharted Series is "average", but it is what it is. I wonder if you'd say the same thing had this not be a GTA forum.

Very rarely, if ever, the boxoffice winning movie won the Oscar prize for best movie.

That's deep

It didn't deserve it. Ghosts should of won.

 

Didn't Ghosts get a pretty lukewarm reception, both from professional critics and the fanbase at large?

I generally don't care, and I don't pay attention to awards, but since you brought it up... I'm glad it didn't win. Too many backwards steps, in my opinion. I see three protags as a sideways move, not a jump ahead. Getting rid of things people enjoyed and putting in things that leaves people scratching their heads? Just wonderful. More shallow character development? Right on! Vehicles that seem to weigh ten times as much as they should? Bravo! Oh, ok, I'll shut up now.

Not deep.

Still a pattern:

probably when you're in a jury you feel like you shouldn't give the prize to the most successfull competitor, for some reason.

How can you give a GOTY to a game that's not even on the main platform?! You heard me right MAIN PLATFORM (PC for short if you dumb). Go suck on your controller R* no GOTY award for you.

GTA 5 is only GOTY to the GTA fans. Don't forget, there are plenty of other games out there that people may enjoy more than GTA. Best selling game doesn't equal best game. Its about how the game works, its not a popularity contest.

Not funny, just pure logic. So with 100% prejudice, I can say Skyrim--hell anything TES originated---would be the superior game. Even if this is a completely unfair comparison since it's SP. :)

 

Wonder if GTAO hacker issues had anything to do with that downgrade? This makes me wonder how they'll rate TESO.

The main platform? How so?

 

Definitely doesn't have the advantage in numbers.

 

BTW: I'm a PC gamer.

LOL GTA V is getting its ass whooped against a better game. Its called The Last of Us. Look at my signature with the link towards GOTY lists.

My thoughts on this ?

 

It's simple. GTA V was a great game, but it just was not as great as it should have been. The guys at IGN and Gamespot eventually saw through the gloss and realized this, and decided that GTA V did not deserve the title of GOTY.

I don't think the fact that V is the newest installment of the Grand Theft Auto series should influence into the overall rating. A game should only get the GOTY award if it does in fact deserve it, in the view of the reviewer, regardless of previous installments.
