Need I say more??? I just tried to grab the games that were acclaimed high by a lot of magazines. Obviously there are much more games than the ones on the list, and I might have missed a good game or 2, but these pretty much are the ones that were universally acclaimed. They range from above average to brilliant. Now who wants to ask me now why fight club was not on the list

Seriously, he already said:

Obviously he's not going to list every game that was made in the entire year. So let's stop asking, "Why isn't X on the list?" If there's a game he didn't mention that you think is the best, just name it.

Although, why didn't you list Fight Club?

At this point, I don't even know what you guys are disagreeing on. I think you are disagreeing with each other for the sake of disagreeing which is even worse than arguing for the sake of arguing. So I'm forced to disgree with both of you even though I'm still not clear on what we are all disagreeing on. God, that was so confusing to write!

Anyway, since SD is refusing to add Syberia 2 to the official candidate list, here's my write-in vote for Syberia 2 as the best game of 2004.

I agree.

Btw, can I include TrackMania? It was released in some parts of the world last year, but didn't get worldwide release until this year. I've played it more than any other game this year, so it's my favourite.. either that, or I declare it to be the best game of 2003.

I disagree on your write-in-vote.



Okay, I'll stop.

Peeps, it's not that hard. Mag's just still saying that people who think Syberia 2 is subpar are wrong. And Gilly, since you think that Syberia 2 is the best game of the year, you agree with him. As do I.

Syberia 2 isn't as good as Syberia, IMO. But that doesn't mean it's like "a boring chick flick." (I'm not even going to go into the levels of misogyny, but I mean, if you want to broaden the audience for AGs, one way NOT to do it is to start throwing around labels like "boring chick flick.") There were amazing moments in that game. Oscar was great. The puzzles were a lot better. The artwork was awesome. Kate needed someone to talk to besides a freakish old fogey and a quest that had more at stake in it, I think. But otherwise, it had a lot of good points. As far as AGs go, it seems by far the best to me, though I haven't played TMOS. Since it's not out in the US should we count it or not? Is it like an Eminem song that will show up on the Grammys two years running because Eminem is that wiley?

What is a good game for you? Let's hear...

Well, I can't vote KOTOR 2 since it's not coming out this year, and anyway I'd be really foolish to call it the best game of the year.

Anyway, wanna hear a secret? Come in close, I'll whisper it in your ear.

I'm goddamn tired of playing sequels

All those titles you told me are sequels, and a remake of a very old, although very good, game. And I'm frankly looking for something original, something new and exciting, and I wouldn't call none of those titles like that.

What is a good game for me? Hmm, I could tell you hundreds, like From Rags to Riches, Sacred Armour of Antiriad or Mancopter, but what good would it be? I played too many old titles when I was young, and I usually look for games that can amuse me like those old ones. But this year wasn't a particularly good one for that, that's why I spent hundreds of dollars on old videogames, I had to refresh my memory.

A game of the year has to be good, not the 'lesser pain of the year', if you catch my drift (and understand my poor english ).

Sam N Max 2 is a sequel

Half-Life 2. Such a polished singleplayer experience means a lot to me, I really enjoyed my time with the game. The SDK is another nice bonus which I intend to play around with.

Myst IV and World of Warcraft are also close runner-ups. Less close are Ninja Gaiden (Hard as nails) and Pirates!.
