Yes, SWTOR is my book is the worst MMO that has ever been released.
Main problem is it is to instanced to be a good MMO. Sharding needs to go. Worlds need to open up. Voice Acting needs to go or stories need to be better. FPs are to static and boring.
There is no challenge in TOR.
They also need to fix their issues in the game.
This is a slap in the face for MMO gamers!
After stating this line:
"Yes, SWTOR is my book is the worst MMO that has ever been released."
Can you expect anyone to ever take anything you post seriously again. My god the things people will resort too when they have run out of things to say....
Best Hybrid: Bloodline Champs
Rising Star: Archeage
Most Innovative: Glitch
Most Anticipated: GW2
GOTY: EVE
All IMO OFC :P
Still it is the worst MMO ever release. Even the matrix online was better. Each their own!
No challenge in TOR? Guess you haven't played any of the other theme parks out there considering how TOR is actually more challenging then any of them.
Hmm MMORPG.com, SWTOR was still released in 2011, not 2012...Seems silly to not include it in 2011 Game of the Year, DCUO is there because?
Given the poor selection of games in these categories, a NONE OF THE ABOVE option should have been included.
My god, Rift pulling out the most innovative? Do you guys even play MMO's?

For him only stating his opinion, your taking it quite serious, eh? If you don't agree with him, just keep reading other posts and move along. If he doesn't like the game he doesn't like it. Everyone has different taste. The game you hate the most might be the best game ever made to him. So many people here take opinions too serious and have to flame the person if they disgree with their view.
How come EQ2 isnt in the GOTY vote? Beastlord class trumps anything LOTRO put out this year.
Rift still wins the tallest midget race though
we did not pick this crap, i just click it for the hell of it and jumpin on the bandwagon.
X2 for none of the above button
You put SWTOR on everything, but not GOTY?
Seems someone failed in the logic dept. RE:SWTOR
So, it's not in GotY, because it came out too late in the year, but it is in the Most Innovative category, since, I guess, you can determine that, but not GotY worthiness. Then, it's in Most Anticipated game for this year, even though it has been released?
Pick some reasoning and stick to it.
SWTOR should either be in both GotY and Innovative categories, or neither. If it's in either category, then it should not be in Most Anticipated.
Come on guys!

The game of the year is a fake list? I do not understand that selection...
Putting tOR in for any 2011 awards when it launched in late December is plain silly. Ten days later and it was 2012.
I did not vote for hype, having a award for most anticipted and rising star is just that. Two awards out of five were about hype, pointless and counterproductive.
Welcome to the Dark Side.
I still wish there was a "none of the above" button for each category, or at least a non-applicable since I really hadn't played any of the Hybrid MMO titles so couldn't really base my vote on anything.
I have to say MMO of the year was a challenge to select, I didn't really feel any of the nominees were really worthy of that designation, all had negative elements associated with them in one way or another, so in the end I went for the home team, EVE, but it wasn't really any more deserving than the other choices.

Wait how is Ridt even considered I thought it was dead ?? O well it will prbly be dead once GW2 comes out
Nah not dead. Some servers are low due to Swtor release, but there are already some ppl coming back.
Since Rift even though generic it caters to instance runners crowd + still provide very good support from Trion imo it will just survive in it's own niche. Only question remaining is how big this niche will be. Think they have chance to do ok. Maybe not great, but ok or even good.
My votes:
Hybrid: Global Agenda. It's fun, now free... what else?
Rising Star: WildStar. I like anime MMO
Most innovative: no vote (no innovative MMO till 2001)
Most Anticipated: GW2 No fee, only box
Game of the year: no vote
Why not any Free2Play category?

It should be on the Hybrid one now that it's f2p. So should DCUO.
No reason TOR isn't on game of the year list outside of schenanigans.

im sorry but rift does not deserve game of the year
just another version of WoW but with better graphics
SWTOR =/= innovative
should not be on game of the year, because it has not been out long enough to see how it stands up with community and replayablilty
The catagory is game of the year, not Game with the most fan bois.
and why even waste time on the first catagory? Nothing has a chance against LoL
Is there really a need for that?
How we pay for a game is no excuse for it being worse than any other game so they should all compete against eachother no matter if they are P2P, F2P, B2P or freemium.
Is World of Warcraft's nomination for INNOVATIVE a joke???
1) IMHO yes
2) IMHO freemium MMOs are like P2P and B2P (GW) are like F2P
3) but, after all, a good and/or fun game can be F2P, P2p, B2P or freemium that: who care? But "Best F2P Game of the Year" was a classic award. I really miss it (and i've that award on my blog, so... ^^)

So I can assume that since SWTOR was only out for 11 days that it WILL be included in the 2012 Game of the Year category in 12 months? I mean it's only fair right, it was released in 2011, but disqualified because of it not being released LONG enough to be in consideration. I gather this was the theory behind placing WoW in this category, since Cataclysm was released in December of 2010 (not long enough to count in that year). And EvE was on there because of Tyrannis back in May 2010 right?
I'm just trying to see if I have the logic correct here, that a game of the year doesn't in fact mean a game that was released in that calendar year, but a game or expansion that was released within the first 11 months of a calendar year? And those games that had only an expansion relased in that calendar year, are we voting on how good the expansion was, or how good the 7 year old game and it's previous 15 expansions are in total, compared to a new game as a standalone which came out 3 months ago and is still living or dying by its hype value?
