Forums → Games → GOTY 2011... part 2

So I made a thread at the half-way point of 2011 stating that Uncharted 3, Batman: Arkham City, Battlefield 3, and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim were the big four contenders for the 2011 Game of The Year. Well, some consideration later, and I've narrowed the list down to only two candidates.
In this corner is the game I waited for in 45 minutes of freezing rain next to my good friend and his girlfriend while counting down the return of Alduin to Tamriel, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

..."The ChillzMaster and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim" will be released to an Armorgames forum near you soon.
And in this corner, the game that started with Game Informer's "Best Game Ever", the master of Dungeons, Shields, Green Caps, and Master Swords, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword.

In all honesty, between every game that released this year, there's only these two that can compete with each other. Skyrim is the game that akes Modern Warfare 3 in one hand, Battlefield 3 in the other, then crushes them up in a blender with Crysis 2 and Portal 2, puts them between a slice of Assassin's Creed: Revelations and Saint's Row the Third, and then eats the produced sandwich.
Skyward Sword is the game that beat the living crap out of two of every fighter in Mortal Kombat and Marvel vs Capcom 3, then skinned Arkham City and uses the skin as a coffee coaster for its hot cup of molten D games, Dead Space 2, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Dead Island, and two lumps of Duke Nukem: Forever, before slipping into its Witcher 2 and Shogun: Total War slippers.

(P.S. unrelated, but I was watching X-Play, and in an interview with a dude from Volition for Saints 3, the team member said something around the lines of "We look at what rocked in this game, then see what we can do better for a future Saint's 4. Yea, unofficially, Saint's Row 4 has been announced. B.A.)
