Finished watching them all, I'm guessing they're not completely don't since it hasn't shown the GotY altogether.

Anyways. Demon's Souls got two awards, being best IP and best RPG. Batman Arkham Asylum took the best action/adventure away from Assassin's Creed 2 and New Super Mario Bros. Wii which is pretty cool as I loved Arkham Asylum. I honestly thought NSMBWii would have got the win because while Batman is an amazing game, NSMB has a ton of replay value.

Infamous is good, but it shouldn't have even been a nominee for anything on here. It's good, but it's not game of the year good.

Also. If my PC could run it and I actually liked PC games, then I'd definitely try Empire Total War. It looked pretty good.

Nice to see Flower get recognition for most Innovative even though Scribblenauts won.

Also the wins for Demon's Souls are well deserved and the comment of it being innovative yet retro is very true. I also think Demon's Soul should win best soundtrack as the music is just hypnotizing.

If you are reading this and have played Demon's Souls you know it's pretty much what a 3D Castlevania should have been. It deserves GOTY as well. As far as gaming in general goes it has done more to push things forward in many ways, much more so than anything else this year except for maybe Borderlands, but that won't win cause of bugs and inconsistencies.
