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

The reason why destiny looks so bad is due to all the cry babies who bitch, due the the game not being exactly what they want it to be. Realistically destiny is the best looking and best feeling game out. It is competitive, and it is time consuming. Regardless of the whiny babies this game has taken up days of their whiny time. So there is a point in itself. Definite goty candidate. Seeing as all other games that might compete were re-releases. Cod sucks dick, anything xbox puts out from here on out will be duke. Halo is dead thanks to 343 and microsoft. Expect sony to take shit over, and people will slowly realize that Microsoft is trash. All in all destiny has a good chance of winning, seeing as even those who cry daily about the game sucking, still play the game, hours a day, every day.
