Destiny definitely has the potential to become game of the year. But there have already been a lot of other really good games released this year.
Some of the big ones include:
The Last of Us: Left Behind
Thief
Titanfall
Infamous: Second Son
Wolfenstein: The New Order
Watch Dogs
Sniper Elite 3
Plus some that haven't released yet:
Alien: Isolation
Battlefield Hardline
Evolve
Assassins Creed Unity
Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare
Far Cry 4
In my opinion that's a very strong line up of games for this year. But I think Destiny can still pull it off. What do you guys think?

For the sanity of the whole f*cking community can everyone stop hating? Like for real y'all have no chill on this post.
Look at the date this was posted. Look at it. IT WAS POSTED IN JULY before the Beta was even released. I was asking for people's opinion which would have come from a personal estimation. I asked for an estimation, a guess, a shot in the dark, a prediction. At the time Destiny was arguably (in my opinion it clearly was) the most anticipated game of the year. Destiny HAD, I repeat again because THIS POST IS FROM JULY, HAD an insane amount of potential that Bungie failed to deliver to us. Also many of the other games on the list that many of you laugh at were also not released. I was going of multiple sources such as IGN, RoosterTeeth, and E3 about what games were receiving a lot of hype. So yes I can understand why the majority of you would believe this is a joke and are talking trash but seriously it is not that difficult to pick up on the fact that THIS POST IS FROM JULY. SO CALM DOWN. I understand that at this point Destiny has about the same chances of winning GOTY as the Cleveland Browns winning the Super Bowl

It won't. I love this game, but there is a true lack of story here. I love the gameplay. As the others on your list, The Last of Us: Left behind - this was a DLC content. Don't think it qualifies as game of the year Battlefield: Hardline won't be released til 2015. I like Wolfenstein a lot and Evolve looks awesome. We will see though. I kind of feel like this year was kind of weak.
