I played lots of different games this year and listened to many soundtracks and My Game of the Year turned out to be Atelier Totori: The Adventurer of Arland (PS3) and my Game Soundtrack of the Year was, despite the fact that the gameplay was similar to a previous title, Disgaea 4: A Promise Unforgotten (PS3) got the honors.
TES5: Skyrim – Fantastic game, weak OST when it comes to listening out of game.
WarHammer 40k: Space Marine – Decent game, probably better than Gears1/2, and I’m LOVING the music.
Vanquish – Very nice looking game and the music just ‘works’, at least in game.
Wipeout HD: Fury – The techno is nice, and the game play is classic Wipeout in REALLY good graphics. Shame the MP has been with retards that leave mid-race.
My Game of the Year is Dark Souls by an absolute mile, and my Game soundtrack of the year is Professor Layton and the Spectre’s Call – specifically the ‘Final Battle’ song.
So, my GOTY would be : Saints Row The Third.
My GSOTY would be: Saints Row The Third.
Honorable mention to Skyrim, while it is a good game, the mindless violence and desctruction in SRTT wins… add in Johnny Gat ftw.
