2005 Adventure game of the Year

Lucien21 · 12-04-2005, 04:05 AM

So what's it to be.

What floated your boat this year so far.

Tobbe · 12-04-2005, 04:11 AM

Only adventure game I´ve played that came out this year is Still Life, so I´ll have to go with that!

Lucien21 · 12-04-2005, 04:19 AM

I went for Fahrenheit although the two DS games (Phoenix wright and Another Code) came very close.

NcroManiac · 12-04-2005, 05:06 AM

Still Life, altough Fahrenheit could have been if it had not spiraled over itself about 2/3d in the game.

Kolzig · 12-04-2005, 05:09 AM

Well, there are three games on that list that I've played this year and three games that I might buy someday.

My top three would be Fahrenheit, Still Life and Phoenix Wright. It's hard to choose which one would be the AGotY, especially as I don't own PW yet.

I voted for Still Life- great story, great gameplay and beautifull graphics.But if 80 days was here i would have voted for it .

You don't own Phoenix Wright yet?!?!? Sacrileage! You must go out and buy it now or you are not a true AG fan!

Well maybe its ok, but really its not something to pass up. I don't know why, but its a fantastic engrossing game!

I personally voted for Fahrenheit just because I loved it and thought it was a great twist on the genre. And I had no problems with the story.

Oberon · 12-04-2005, 06:11 AM

I just registered on the forums to be able to vote for Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. Japanese AG devotees have waited for years for this series to come out of Japan.

Still haven't played "And Then There Were None", though, I hope I won't regret my vote.

insane_cobra · 12-04-2005, 06:44 AM

Fahrenheit, I can't afford a DS right now.

Welcome, Oberon, stick around.

I didnt know they had many of these kinds of AGs in Japan? Well, other than those manga dating simulation things.

Hey voting for your own game is a bit sneaky.

You know who I mean

Dysphoric1 · 12-04-2005, 07:30 AM

Darn Euro-centric polls.

TMOS came out in the US in 2005...

Did Martin Mystere come out in the US yet? I haven't been paying attention to recent releases...

Stroggy · 12-04-2005, 08:26 AM

I picked Fahrenheit with Still Life as the runner-up.

Some of the titles in the poll aren't yet out in Europe, so it's hardly euro-centric. Anyway, you could always vote 'Other'.

Yeah, I know that it most likely is a great game, I just don't have the money to buy everything, a man needs more important things first, like Mario Kart DS.

LiquidWizard · 12-04-2005, 09:30 AM

I voted 'Fahrenheit' because it sucked the least.

colpet · 12-04-2005, 09:45 AM

Haven't played any of them. I'm so behind. I'm just getting to Alida and Bad Mojo Redux now.

Fien · 12-04-2005, 11:39 AM

My favorite isn't on the list: Rhem 2: The Cave. Runner-up is Voyage. Still haven't finished Myst V and not even started Fahrenheit.

Ok, I admit it! I voted for my own game! But I think thats fair! Of course I have a certain attachment to it! So I am biased!

As long as I only get a single vote, then I feel justified! It's when people starting voting multiple times for their own stuff that it gets a bit skewed!

...You know who I mean, justadventure.com poll option from last year...

...or maybe you dont. That was a while ago!

MaryScots · 12-04-2005, 03:01 PM

Still Life for me! Although, Voyage is pretty close, too.
