Which of these games that have been announced so far are you willing to bet will win GOTY 2011?

There are so many great games coming out this year. It's still to early to start placing bets.

Skryim is already my GOTY. Though I'll be dating Mass Effect 3 behind its back.

None of the above. My money's on Guitar Hero. 
 
Okay, in all seriousness, I'm going with LA Noire.

Hard to say. They could all turn out to be Fable 3's for all I know. 
 
I'mhopingSkyrim is really good, out of all the GOTY prospects (and DotA 2, but that's a PC GOTY at best).

Skyrim or L.A Noire

Some serious omissions from the OP's list. Skyrim, Portal 2, LA Noire, Deus Ex and I'll throw Dead Space 2 in there as well. That being said I would install ME3 as the early favorite. I'd be surprised if it were anything other than brilliant.

Hard to say at this point. I can't even predict what my own GOTY will be at this point, though I'm sure it'll be summed up to Mass Effect 3 vs Uncharted 3. inFAMOUS 2 may get a spot as well.

Duke Nukem Forever

No clue what will win GOTY, but I know none of those will be my favourite of the year.

MEEEEEEEH
Let's wait until we see our options at the end of the year.

Mirror's Edge 2

I just hope it's a new IP. L.A. Noir or Rage.

I come from the future, and the answer is La Helvetica - a pretentious indie title released at the end of December.

Sorry guys :(

You forgot L.A. Noire

The Last Guardian.

Seeing how excited they were about it on TNT, I'm ready to bet Arkham City all the way

it's sad that we have nothing short of 30 AAA titles coming out this year, yet our dear GB staff are so closed minded and wallowing in the familiar that we already know its one of those three..  
 talk about diversity and excitement >_> 
 
after seeing them jizz all over ME2 last year, ofcourse it's ME3.. as much as i love Mass Effect, im happy the trilogy ends this year so we can get onto other games in the future

Oh boy, sequels.

I don't understand all the love for Skyrim.  
 
I do think LA Noire could be potentially awesome. 

I feel Skyrim, LA Noire, or RAGE could win as far as consoles. And being a fan of Total War, I have to root for Shogun 2. I have bad feeling Mass Effect 3 could be the same as 2 with just a continuation of the story.

Dark Souls, no contest.

Sesame Street looks pretty sick. 

Mass Effect 3 followed by Uncharted 3 and Arkham City. 
 
Edit: Actually Mass Effect 3 vs Uncharted 3 since ME3 might when the multi-platform round.  ME3 and U3 will have like an hour to an hour and a half argument where ME3 barely takes it.

Mass Effect 3 ftw

Final five will be: 
 
-Dead Space 2
-Dragon Age 2
-Skyrim
-Mass Effect 3 
-Arkham City 
 
As to who will win... no idea and I dont really care. 
Remember to stop by this thread by the end of the year to congratulate me on my incredible foresight

LA Noire & Battlefield 3  (PC) 

Uncharted 3 
Mass Effect 3 
Batman: Arkham City 
LA Noire 
Portal 2 
Dragon Age II 
Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim 
Zelda: Skyward Sword 
Battlefield 3 
Dead Space 2 
Star Wars: The Old Republic 
Rage
Infamous 2 
Resistance 3 
LittleBigPlanet 2 
Duke Nukem Forever
 
...etc, etc. 
 
It's a damn good thing Diablo III and Bioshock Infinite are 2012, because the GOTY 2011 arguments are going to be an absolute shitshow (and by that I mean legendary).

Battlefield 3.

I feel as though everyone saying Skyrim is forgetting that Bethesda is making it. It will be full of bugs and that will pretty much rule it out for GOTY. It will probably be my favorite game of the year, but I think the slick experiences of Uncharted or Batman will win over critics.

" Always bet on Duke. "

not on my goty list
