On the Skyrim is broken on the PS3 causes Skyrim not to be GOTY (for some people) point - here is last years list of GOTY nominees: Super Mario Galaxy 2, Halo: Reach, Civilization V, Mass Effect 2, God of War III, Alan Wake, Kirby's Epic Yarn, Heavy Rain, Red Dead Redemption (Red Dead won)
There were an awful lot of exclusives - if Skyrim is possibly broken on one platform is that any worse than the fact that huge number of exclusives were on this list. In fact everything except Red Dead and Mass Effect 2 were exclusives (I think) ... if you start tossing out games because single platform problems maybe exclusives should automatically not be be considered. I am not yet playing Skyrim, but I will so I cannot speak to its GOTYness. Oh am sorry for the guy whose having trouble with Skyrim; I feel your pain since I play most of my games on the PC and its always a crapshoot but you just never know.
