These games transported us to another world in 2011 with their inspiring tracks, but which sounds will echo as best? Find out in the GameTrailers Game of the Year Award for Best Soundtrack!
A great pick in my opinion. And what is this if not an opinion? Let them have theirs. I haven't played Infamous 2, but if it's on this list it sure must be a great soundtrack. Bastion's OST was very memorable. Portal 2's was innovative, very digital sounding. Skyrim's might've been a little bit too generic, but it's still the best fit for the game style.
I'd love to see Zelda: Skyward Sword and Deus Ex: Human Revolution on this list. To only have 5 nominees on a videos like this one is a shame. They left out games with very memorable soundtracks. They could maybe include a section with honorable mentions.
Guess that's just too much to ask, but maybe next year? :)
Skyrim shouldn't have even been on this list, let alone be the winner. I can't believe Zelda wasn't even nominated. Portal 2 should have won.
And whoever is saying Marvel vs Capcom 3 should be on here, no way. I'm huge MvC3 fan, but even I say the music is nothing special save for maybe a handful of okay tracks.
Thanks for letting us actually listen to the music, smart move! Videogame soundtracks are so underrated. After playing games like Mass Effect and Assassins Creed for hours and hours, once you hear the song (on say YouTube), that plays every time you board Normandy or when ever your being chased by guards, it's so distinctive and you love it! I Got a chance to go video games live last year. Best ticket I bought all summer. video game music turn into memories, good memories, which turn into nostalgia which transform into legend. Don't believe me...look at music of Mario, Zelda, Sonic hell even Halo. that's video game music that any gamer will know. And that my friends, is what a legend is.

I just forgot Killzone 3...cant believe GT dont nominee this four:LBP2,KZ3,Deus:EX and Marvel vs Capcom 3...they got an freaking awesome soundtrack.
A 'Best Audio Design' award would make more sense in my opinion. That way all factors of the soundscape could be taken into account, rather than simply the music. It all plays a massive part in creating the game's feel.

Had the best soundtrack BY FAR for me in 2011. A nominee is the least we can expect, GT.
Utter, epic fail.
