I feel like the good people at rockstar might have given Spike some "encouragement" to pick their game.
Fallout 3, MGS4, Little Big Planet, AND Gears 2 deserved it more IMO. It's funny that Gears won Best X360 game over GTA4 but GTA managed to win GOTY... anyone else find that interesting?
I loved GTA IV for the first couple of months but then it got boring, ive recently started playing it again to get ready for the Lost and the Damned, and now it is more fun then before.
