GotY shouldn't exist, I've seen "Game of the Year edition" for so many games this year is fucking annoying. 4 out of 5 of those games come with absolutely nothing new/extra then the regular version, so your just paying extra because they slapped a GotY sticker on it.

The games that do come with something extra, like a free add-on or expansion, is just a giant "fuck you" to everyone who already. bought the game

Don't whine about the Mario girls, faggots.

I know. But other websites take their opinion much less into it. You know the reviewer at Gametrailers publicly said he didn't like Crysis, but still gave it a very high score, because it's undeniably a fantastic game. It's not like that in Dtoid. That's why their opinion is less valid. MUCH less valid.

all the videos are using Lady Gaga as the songs

[cataract]

I just...what song is this?

Just because they have a differing opinion doesn't make it any less valid than say 1up's or Gametrailers. ALL reviews are based on opinion there is no universal criteria that determines what score a game will get. Score aggregator websites like metacritic and gamerankings are pathetic because as long as your review has a score attached to it you will be counted no matter the legitimacy or credibility of the website.

I know. But a GotY award, like this one, which is purely based on opinion, is worth absolutely nothing. Destructoid actually said DAMNATION is better than Assassin's Creed 2... And anyone with a brain knows that's not true. Even score aggregator websites like Metacritic rarely ever consider the score that Destrucoid gives because it rarely ever isn't heavily based on opinion. So Metacritic and Gamerankings hardly ever count their scores, because... They're not worth anything.
