No KOTOR?

[OB1]

I was torn between Kotor and BGE for the writing category, and although Kotor does have a better story, the way it is told is much better in BGE.

[Great Rumbler]

I think KOTOR should get at least one award.

[OB1]

Best RPG, best X-Box game, but those aren't listed.

[Great Rumbler]

True.

[big guy]

i'd give BG&E game of the year over WW.

[OB1]

It's a great game, but behind WW, PoP, and KOTOR as best game of 2003, IMO.

[A Black Falcon]

The only game they nominated that I own is Wind Waker... but I've played demos of Viewtiful Joe and Rise of Nations. Anyway my choices from this list... not playing a lot of the games and not knowing much about some won't stop me.d :D Well in most of the categories anyway.

Game of the Year
• STAR WARS: KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC - obviously

Original Game Character of the Year
Yeah, I don't know either...

Rookie Studio of the Year
• RISE OF NATIONS - great game by a great designer...

Excellence in Audio
Haven't played any

Excellence in Game Design
Um, of them I've only played a little of Wario Ware so I don't know... but if I was to make an arbitrary choice I'd say KOTOR... :)

Excellence in Programming
