I just thought I'd post them all here and see what you guys think. If you ask me GS was pretty fair this year minus a couple awards that games didn't deserve. The reader's choice awards were spot on (pun not intended) and I really liked GS's awards this year out of all the other sites. The winners are highlighted in bold

Looks pretty good to me except ONE THING! Why the HELL did Madden win over Okami in the best game mechanic?! The Celestial Brush was WAY more innovative then some dumb controls for the Wii. These are the Reader's Choice Awards and I was part of this as well so the winners are bold and compared to GameSpot's choce is underlined

I still say the GS votes were better and the stupid idiots chose Active Reload over the Celestial Brush that really makes me pissed! And sorry koten but everyone hated Red Steel it seems.

I'm biased, but I don't see how anything can top Twilight Princess. This is seriously one of the 5 best games I've ever played.

Chris
01-30-2007, 11:43 PM
I'm definately more with the Reader's Choices. Although, I, like Blaksmoke, believe that TP was GOTY. Gears was fun and all, but I like Vegas better even.

But the one that really bothers me is GS picking Dead Rising over TP. And I didn't play Elite Beat Agents but could it really be better than Guiter Hero II?

[Daniel Primed]
01-31-2007, 12:17 AM
I don't agree with this one as much as I did with the IGN awards. I think that Tekken should be the best PSP title, Zelda deserves a few more awards such as Best Action Adventure, thats just common sense. But its not too bad for a website that I lost faith in years ago.

I'm biased, but I don't see how anything can top Twilight Princess. This is seriously one of the 5 best games I've ever played.

eh , i'm barely playing it actually. When I got gears of war i beat it 3 times in a row. Zelda i'm just trying my best to get into the game once a week

I've completed Gears and haven't looked at it since, not even for Multiplayer. Hell, I'm playing Uno more on Live. Shocking really. Gears has been hyped beyond hell in my opinion, great game and all, just not as stellar as everyone seems to be making out.

Ivory_Soul
01-31-2007, 02:52 AM
You guys have to realize that Zelda is just a rehashed game with new content. Dead Rising deserved that award more then Zelda because it's NEW and INNOVATIVE and Gears of War is NEW and INNOVATIVE and they are both revolutionary in their own rights. Zelda was really good but we've seen it before it just did it really well. MGS deserved that award more then Tekken because it was NEW and INNOVATIVE and showed that shooters can really work on the PSP and Tekken was really a port of Tekken 5 with additions. Gears of War deserved GOTY and I love it to death. I'm almost done on Hardcore and I'll probably play through it on Insane.

Chris
01-31-2007, 03:31 AM
But it isn't the Newest and Most Innovative Adventure Game, or Newest and Innovative Game of the Year. It's simply supposed to be the best, regardless of whether or not Dead Rising is a new franchise, that doesn't mean it's a better game, which is what these awards should be based on. All games today are rehashes, every idea has pretty much been done, and the formula is just changed, whether or not they are continuations of a franchise or not.

I'll take Vegas over Gears any day of the week.

Ivory_Soul
01-31-2007, 05:50 AM
Well Gears it technically better then Vegas but Vegas is different you can't really say that. It has a whole different feeling to it and style. I liked Vegas a lot but not as much as Gears. Gears was a game that, for once, lived up and went beyond the hype. Halo 3 is the most hyped up next-gen game so far I mean GS had an article on a freaking WEAPON from Halo 3 that Bungie announced that's just pathetic.

01-31-2007, 05:57 AM
But zelda isn't the best . A link to the past is still the best zelda game made.

These new zelda's are just to repetitive . I've play oot , majora's mask , wind waker . I don't see whats new or great about TP . I plays like the others . Not only that but there is so much down time in the game its insane. I feel like i'm just running all over the world constantly . with not much to do .

I think almost all the titles on the list were over hyped. I mean okami from what I got to play is zelda with a hacked on finger of god control scheme that frankly would have worked better on the wii or ds . Zelda is just another zelda and as solid as it is , its not spectacular .

The only think that Gears deserves to be on that list . Its one of the first games since I was a kid that I didn't sleep. Just played the game strait through twice before crashing adn then woke up and played it a third time to get the dom achivements .

I think thats the thing . Gears of war did co-op perfectly and I still can't get enough of it

And I didn't play Elite Beat Agents but could it really be better than Guiter Hero II?

Yes. Yes it could.

Thank you gjlvd!!! I thought I was alone on that. And EBA isn't better then GH2 it just got the award because GH1 won last year so they're, AGAIN, letting something NEW and INNOVATIVE win.

TheGreenElf
01-31-2007, 07:57 AM
I love Guitar Hero but Elite Beat Agents is definitely on par with it. If you haven't played it you wouldn't know.

But GLJVD, I have to disagree about Zelda: LTTP being the best Zelda. That is actually one of my least favorite Zeldas, with Majora's Mask being on top.

gljvd
01-31-2007, 02:10 PM
Hey glad you disagree , now we can argue !!!

haha

But seriously . TP ... I just feel like i've played it before

I didn't mind running around the world like an idiot in oblivion because i could allways raise my stats or find new dungons and what not . But in zelda teh world itself is pretty empty with dumb little fetch missions .

I mean come on every time i had to fill the tears I was like oh great this again . They need to do something else with the 3d zelda. Its just not playing right to me and I'm feeling more and more like been there done that with each new 3d zelda game .

Chris
01-31-2007, 04:36 PM
Well they said previously that this would be the last Zelda of it's kind, like I'm sure you all remember, so I'm looking forward to see that they have planned.

And LttP is you second least favorite Zelda? That sentence has actually caused me to go into convulsions. That game was AMAZING!

As far as Elite Beat Agents go, I just haven't had the chance to play it yet, I'll have to go over to my friends house and play it.

More places seem to have picked Twilight Princess as their Game of the Year. I guess Twilight Princess can't take them all. The most noteworthy Game of the Year award will come from the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences when they have their 10th Annual Interactive Achievement Awards in a week.

Oh trust me, I am not enjoying the game as much because so often I feel like..."They've done this in the last 3 games...". Unfortunately I haven't beat it yet...partially because the familiar feeling but also partly because I don't have a whole lot of time for gaming lately and when I play Zelda I hate to save between dungeons...I feel your pain with this one. I simply said I don't like LttP all that much either. I love TP a lot of times, but too often I feel that I've done this...

Well they said previously that this would be the last Zelda of it's kind, like I'm sure you all remember, so I'm looking forward to see that they have planned.

And LttP is you second least favorite Zelda? That sentence has actually caused me to go into convulsions. That game was AMAZING!

I've tried playing it so many times but always end up stopping after getting a dungeon or two into the dark world. I was actually saying Majora's Mask was my favorite Zelda and LttP was one of the least favorites of mine. Not necessarily up there but also not the worst.

I'm just busting you chops about it, you can like whichever ones you want. And yeah, I definately read that Majora's Mask thing wrong.

The only complaint I have about Twilight Princess is that I can never climb stright up ivy vines without first climbing to the side. Oh, and roalgoal.

But other than that, it's completley amazing. When I step into a dungeon I really get a sense of "environment" (best way I can describe it) that I didn't really get in some of the Temples in OoT or Wind Waker. And the story is very character driven, much more so than any previous Zelda.
