After checking out Spike Video game awards nominees on Spike.com I was surprised to see that Gears of War 3 wasn’t nominated for Game of the Year. Why? because despite my personal feeling about Arkham City and Uncharted 3 being the top 2 contenders for VGA’s Game of the Year award. I felt that Gears 3 deserved to be in the top 5 if not 3. If you’re fanboy of a particular platform or not, you have to admit that Gears 3 delivered a pretty solid and in depth gaming experience . With it’s great story, graphic’s, and action Gears to me deserves to be a contender but it’s not up to me in the end.

Cliffy B believe’s that Gears should be considered “Game of the century” a statement he made during our interview at the Best Buy Gears launch event. It is my belief that Games such as Gears of War 3, Batman Arkham City, Uncharted 3, Skyrim, and Zelda Skyward Sword have already achieved this feat. Studios such as Naughty Dog, Epic Games, and Rockstedy have proven that there are no limits in the ways of Gaming innovation, and have changed the way we see video games because of it.

Though it wasn’t nominated I feel that Gears 3 is and deserves to be a contender for Game of the Year. Still I would like to hear your thoughts on if you agree or not.
