I'm sure we'll still be hearing that argument for the next several years... No matter how many great games come out for PS3.

That is sad. But oh well, as long as the great line-up keeps coming, I'm happy.

End of 08, onto 09. I wonder what great exclusives awaits.

Killzone 2, INfamous, God of War 3, Uncharted 2, WKC, Heavy Rain, MAG, GT5, FF13 (Still exclusive in Japan).

Going by that list, I think we got ourselves one heck of a line-up next year already.

This is not possible theres no way the ps3 any games, 360 is deffinetely the better system.

Once you get a stigma it sticks regardless how true. Like, for instance, if the other console never got another RRoD it would still be trashed because of it.

Do other sites do the same awards like IGN, gamefaq etc?

So I guess they are going to reveal their Game of The Year overall, Game of The Year on PS3 and Game of The Year on 360 today?

So Far for Gametrailers in 2008:

Best Game Lineup: PS3
Biggest Disappointment: SW- The Force Unleashed (PS3/ 360/ Wii/ PC)
Best Multiplayer: Rock Band 2 (PS3/ 360/ Wii)
Biggest Surprise: FF XIII on 360
Biggest New Story: FF XIII on 360 (repeat from above imo)
Best Wii Game: Smash Bros
Best Trailer: Resident Evil 5 (PS3/ 360)
Best Music Game: Rock Band 2 (Ps3 / 360/ Wii)
Best Graphics: Gears of War 2 (360)
Best Story: Grand Theft Auto IV (PS3/ 360/ PC)
Best First Person Shooter: Resistance 2 (PS3)
Best Third Person Shooter: Gears of War 2 (360)
Best Downloadable Game: Braid (360)
Best RPG: Fallout 3 (PS3, 360, PC)
Most Innovative Game: Little Big Planet (PS3)
Best Sport Game: NHL 2009 (PS3/ 360/ PC)
Best Nintendo DS Game: Castlevania
Best Action/Adventure Game: GTA IV (PS3/ 360/ PC)
Best PSP Game: God Of War
Best Racing Game: Burnout Paradise (PS3/ 360/ PC)
Best New Franchise: Little Big Planet (PS3)
Best PS2 Game: Rock Band 2
Best Strategy Game: Sins of a Solar Empire (PC)
Best Puzzle game: Echochrome (PS3)

I would say I mostly agree with this list with the following exceptions:
Best Action/Adventure or at least Best Story: MGS4, give the other one of the two to GTA IV. But GTA does not deserve both imo.
Best Strategy Game: Valkyria Chronicles or the latest Civ (I have Sins on PC, it is dreadful imo)
Best Multiplayer: Resistance 2, specially for its 8 players online coop mode, brilliant.
Best Racing Game: WipEout HD (I have Wipeout and have tried Burnout, imo there is no comparison, although Burnout is excellent and very fun in its own right)
