Sorry for the hate, but in all honesty Modern Warfare 3 does not deserve Game of the Year.
Its spawns are horrid, I cannot even describe how bad they are. I, and many other players, agree with this statement. I've actually spawned in the enemy spawn before, several times actually. The balance between the guns is utter shit and many of them need to be nerfed. The striker actually has so much range on it that it's possible to get a longshot, I've done it several times. The Type 95 is a three-round burst gun that kills in two shots. It definitely needs a change. The PP90M1 isn't too bad but if you toss on Rapid Fire and Extended mags it's not that hard to get a 36 killstreak (3 AC-130s), its RoF needs to be nerfed just a little bit. Some other aspects of the game such as sniper power is also a little weak, but I won't go into huge details right now. I believe Skyrim deserves game of the year with its beautiful graphics and amazing gameplay. Please note that I'm not a "CoD Hater" or "Skyrim Fanboy" I actually love CoD and play it all the time, I'll just be so much happier with the next updates, maybe then it'll get a shot at Game of the Year. Feel free to flame my opinion, but it is mine, and I will stick with it.
