Vote for what you think is best, I voted for Skyward Sword because I have more fun on it than I do Skyrim. Imo, besides the items in the inventory of Skyrim, Skyward Sword has overall better graphics, it's a very unique art style. And the motion controls feel so wonderful.

G4 Deathmatch, went back and forth from 49% Skyrim, 51% Skyward, and 51% Skyward and 49% Skyrim. Then it was 52% Skyrim and 48% Skyward 7-8 hours ago, I lost hope and said well at least Skyward would lose to the other best game, now it's 49% Skyrim and 51% Skyward . With the Deathmatch you can voteas many times as you want by making multiple accounts which is encouraged on a video on the G4 website. So fight on.
Note: Skyward Sword had a much harder bracket than any other game that has made it to the semifinals http://www.g4tv.com/vgdm/best-game-2011/bracket/, Uncharted 3 in the first round, Uncharted 2 (won GOTYs last year) and the first round was before Zelda Skyward Sword was released..... and still won . Also got Batman Arkham City (Batman Asylum Won GOTYs), I doubted it was going to make it, and now Skyrim (It's outstanding and Elder Scroll fans have been waiting years for this game, just has many bugs/glitches) IGN and GameInformer are often biased towards Nintendo, but they both scored Skyward Sword a 10/10 and Skyrim 9.5/10. I am not being biased when I vote for The Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword because I have played both, and I simply enjoy and have more fun playing Zelda. Gameplay > Graphics, Art > Looking Real (Like everyone else, so original)

Spike TV is said to go by IP Address, so one vote per household... but went back on and voted again and got no error or anything, hopefully multiple votes don't count, unless maybe it's changed, then the other shouldn't count.

This is an outrage, this clearly shows how biased G4 are to Nintendo. Skyward Sword is the only game giving Skyrim competition in their Deathmatch, I could care less if they don't give Skyward the GOTY, but to not even give it a nomination..... hurts me, and G4TV has lost all credibility of rating when it comes to Nintendo, especially wii, ds, and 3ds games.

I think you're putting far, far too much stock into the importance of game of the year awards.

GOTY is just a little extra recognition from a professional gaming website/show/magazine for a game worth your money. Nothing else.

And we all know you want as many bragging rights as possible.

Just for you.
