    No, but it is irritating to question someones motives when they mention their GOTY. You didn't say "wow, interesting, I never played any of these games" you doubted whether someone really would select those games as GOTY.

    Yep must admit i was surprised by that list BUT i do love threads like this with all different games mentioned (be boring if we all picked the 'blockbuster' ones) as just like 'best of' lists on websites, i love going through peoples own personal favourites as often i might have missed one or two 'gems'.

    Quite a few games mentioned so far i havent played, shall be looking them up on the app store and seeing if i like the look of them.

    Thats one great thing about iOS gaming, a HUGE variety of gaming, different styles, indie/large corporate built games, love it !

    Since when does best mean popular/recognized?

    And even if that WAS the case, what makes it worse to how you vote? Because according to this...

    You are voting for games sight unseen merely if they get released!

    All I was asking was whether did the person vote for those because they deserved more fame. This is what the post implied to me.

    If you can't see it in your own words, how can I explain it to you? (check the post you made above questioning motives perhaps? Like nominations deserving fame? As if a nomination brings fame?)

    Didn't know where else to put this but thought it was worth noting that Rayman Jungle Run was Apple's Game of the Year on the U.S. store. And even though I don't think it'll get my GoTY vote, now that I look back at it, I really did enjoy the heck out of that game.
