Why didn't HL2 win it?? Or FFLOL

Totally rigged, but all award ceremonies are.

Not the Grammys!

o_loader · 10-28-2006, 02:10 AM

It isn't rigged at all..

It is based on number of sales. Hence why Sims and Nintendog style games always win, however if it was based on what actual gamers think then I'm sure HL2 will be in there.

TBH I just ignore the 'official' game reviews, as they are just from number of sales, I read PC Gamer and look at thier reviews.

Thoose results are pretty suprising to say the least.

Not really. Like I said it is based on sales. Nintendogs wins because of the little girls that buy it, Oblivion because it has been advertised to hell and back etc.

o_dancingfool · 10-28-2006, 02:28 AM

I'm pretty sure Oblivion would have won anyways. If you don't like the facts, well that's too bad isn't it?

Not talking about thoose games, im talking about stuff like ghost recon and age of empires (which seemed to me like a bit of a flop compared to the previous versions).

o_the russian · 10-28-2006, 02:43 AM

I was going to say the same, GRAW is a terrible game, and AoE3 while fun, is not exactly that good multiplayer wise, atleast from my experience. Did they release it to more than just the US maybe? Maybe theres an asian market thats making these things look more feasible... like I know theres a big market for BF2 in asia and its sold directly in Thailand for one. And, EA, while a terrible company, IS able to pump out more titles than just about anyone else... because of their sheer size and hostility.

**mervaka** · 10-28-2006, 02:46 AM

the latest ghost recon is a pile of crap tbh. as with all console games LOL AUTO AIM!!!!!

o_dancingfool · 10-28-2006, 02:53 AM

GRAW on PC is hard as fuck even on easy but it still kicks ass. GRAW on the 360 is drastically different but still kicks ass. GRAW on the PS2 has honestly got to be the worst game I have ever played. It hurts to play it, seriously.

If Gears of War turns out how it appears to be, then that will probably win next year.

Circuitous · 10-29-2006, 08:52 PM

Saw a Gears of War preview on Game Head, looked boring as hell, hopefully it was just that one section.
