The Music award is ok. But the game of the year and else..Gosh Gears Of War it's not that good.
indeed
maybe zelda should have got it
or GoW2 if it was out ...
i thout that i would receve that
its no surprise but come on atleast they should give other games credit
like the new zelda that game is nice they have made alot of progres from the previous one
i wonder if it will be like this wen Halo3 comes out??
Ive Beaten Gear of War in every difficulty(mostly with buddies) and yes, it deserves game of the year, and it will continue to win it prob till Halo 3 comes out. Ive beaten Zelda TP(i loooove zelda) and i still say gears wins it.
Give it a try, youll like it. Or if you have a ps3 with resistance, DONT play gears, cause if you do youll realize that you wasted 600$ to play resistance.
Though the playstation home seems like a really cool(although somewhat stolen idea, but what isnt nowandays) Still it looks good, and looks like they improved on the Virtual space idea. So i like it.
Even with the bad press, and so on, i hope sony can get it together, cause right now, i wouldnt want to be an early adopter of the ps3. But maybe it might change.
I didnt care for Zelda or Gears actually. Well definitely not enough to give it game of the year award. And actually Marusame, Resistance is a great game, sadly its about the only one on the system but I love it. Its online is easily far better than Gears. Id probaly give Resistance the award, it atleast desereved something. Anyone with some sense would see how over hyped Zelda is. And gears I didnt dive too deep into it but it had spectacular visuals. Please note Im not a fanboy and own all 3 systems.
