"I took up hiking this year and I'm loving it!!
While I've not gained any extra lives yet, it has remarkably improved the one I've got.... you should get one too!"
Walter Wilson, Los Angeles, United States

I hope to god hiking isn't the only thing you do; otherwise it's tad hypocritical to tell gamers you don't actually know to "get a life". Oh and FYI I and many other gamers I know have other interests. I'm into Martial Arts for example, I also enjoy Hiking sometimes!!

As an avid female gamer (RPGs, platformers and scifi/fantasy adventure games - a lone gamer), I can say that no game released this year is deserving of a title. Out of the games I have purchased in the last year, the most recently released one is Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath for XBox, released in 2005. The number of video games released that have a good plot and excellent gameplay have plummeted - most of the better games seem to be from 1991, 1998, 1999 and the early 2000s.

Fallout 3 had good concept and design. But the story was ultimately plagiarised from classics such the likes of 'I am Legend'.

The gameplay is buggy, movement feel entirely disconnected from the virtual landscape with floaty-slidy interaction with the landscape.

They can learn a lot from Uncharted 2.

Fallout 3 was full of running great distances and repairing stuff all the time. It was fun but hardly GotY material.

Borderlands is shaping up to be a great game provided Gearbox pull thier finger out and fix the army of bugs that it shipped with.

What about World of Goo?

Fallout 3 was a good game but not great, felt like a MOD for Oblivion which itself was a good game, but had many flaws. There just isn't enough to do in F3. Batman Arkham is the best game this year by far.

"I took up hiking this year and I'm loving it!!"

You know it is possible to like computer games and walking too. I wonder if a topic about best film, song or book of the year would attract similiar comments. You wouldn't automatically assume that somebody who likes reading or films would just be sitting around reading or watching dvds indoors all day, not doing any exercise so why make similiar assumptions about gamers?

Fallout 3 was a rubbish game and doesn't deserve game of the year.
