OWNED.

why is Halo2 a biggest dissapointment
-
you have to ask?
-
Well, considering the hype. It\'s also not really much different than the first game.
Graphics are better, level design is better although still not that great, gameplay hasn\'t evolved. I guess people expected a lot more; I didn\'t.
BTW, where the hell is Metroid Prime 2\'s nom for Best Graphics/Artistic? Maybe the nominations were too crowded.. looks like it. The game has an almost annoying amount of structural detail and beauty.

best traditional sports game....espn NFL 2K5....;)...F**k EA!

^^I was going to point that out^^
There are a lot of things i disagree with on here but i dont know if i feel like taking the time to talk about them all.
Best Story
The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay (PC, Xbox)
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (PS2)
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (PS2)
I loved GTA SA but a better story than Snake Eater? I havent played snake eater yet but somehow i just cant see san andreas having a better story than MGS3.
Best Graphics, Technical
The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay (PC, Xbox)
Doom 3 (PC)
Far Cry (PC)
Half-Life 2 (PC)
Rome: Total War (PC)
I dont know if id disagree with this and i havent seen Half Life 2 in action but is it really not as good as Far Cry? Perhaps this is just from a technical aspect since HL2 got the best graphics award (are these in order or just thrown into one category?) And ive see the chronicles of riddick and i dont know if i would say it kills Doom but it is close - Not a big complaint here.
Best Game Based on a TV or Film Property
The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay (PC, Xbox)
Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3 (PS2)
James Bond 007: Everything or Nothing (Xbox, PS2, GC)
The Lord of the Rings, The Battle for Middle-earth (PC)
Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords (Xbox)
Im glad to see that Everything or Nothing made it on here. Its truely underrated.

The Chronicles of Riddick is THAT innovative? Hmm... Maybe i need to buy it because from what ive seen/read - it was innovative (ie things like hand to hand combat etc) but If these titles are supposed to be in order then i dont know how its #1
Best Fighting Game
Dead or Alive Ultimate (Xbox)
Def Jam: Fight for NY (Xbox, GC, PS2)
Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3 (PS2)
Guilty Gear X2 #Reload (Xbox)
Mortal Kombat: Deception (Xbox, PS2)
DOA Ultimate? Thats not right. And why not replace GGX2#R with GGX Isuka? Is #Reload online? Damn xbox and having all of ps2\'s good 2d fighters online.
Ok well this is getting boring (for everyone im sure). Just a lot of things that are odd if not stupid.

I thought Halo 2 kicked ass.

These are just the choices. It\'s like their nominations, not the actual winners, Nicon.

Glad to know

Best Voice Acting:I expect to see MGS3 there replacing GTA
-
Well, in my usual spirit of never agreeing on anything, I think about 90% of those nominations are shit.

Best New Character
Ryder - Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (PS2)
