    Why not nominate the Disney Adventure Ride (Toy Story thing) for goty?(I don't think it was released this year, but it should have been nominated the year it came out!) It's a ride yes, but it's also most definitely a video game. Just think of the "ride" as the system/console in which you get to play the game on. In this respect, the ride is no different from an Xbox 360, iPhone or DS or whatever. It's just the method in which you use to play the game.

          Incorrect. It was the opposite. A game shouldn't automatically be DQ'd because it is a smaller game. : Runnermatt
