TPM Games of 2003 [Nominations]

[Razola]

Let's try something new. I'm going to list a few catergories and you list up to three games (released in 2003, of course). Later, I'll round up the list and we'll vote on each catergory. Nominations close when we get 10 nominees. Nominations that are obviously stupid will be ignored. To clarify one catergory, Dissapointment doesn't mean bad, just falling short of expectations. A game that is just bad should be Worst of 2003, not Biggest Dissapointment.

And hey, suggest some catergories while you're at it. Maybe I'll put them up here. Nothing like a funny one to lighten up the mood.

[andyizcool]

Where do these games have to be released in 2003? Japan? America? Europe?

~Andrew

[Razola]

For the sake of consistency, let's stick with American releases in 2003. Since Japan gets their very early, while Europe normally gets theirs very late, I think the US release date is nice middle ground.

And Heald, I'll put your catergories up.

I think it might be a good idea to exclude direct ports, too.

On to the bonus catergories:

Most Anticipated Game

Half-Life 2.

Best Developer of 2003

Naughty Dog.

Best Publisher of 2003

Sega. While they published some utter crap, you cant ignore games like Otogi, Panzer Dragoon and Skies of Arcadia Legends.

Best New Character of 2004

Is 2004 a typo?

Worst New Character of 2004

See above.

Worst. Developer. Ever.

Acclaim. Without a DOUBT, Acclaim.

[Razola]

Yeah, they are typos. Fixed them.

And ports of older games (like the GTA dual packs for X-Box and PS2) won't be allowed. While Halo may have new stuff for PC, it's not new enough to be considered for the running. These games had their chance in 2001.

[SageofLaughter]

In that case:

Best New Character of 2003

Fawful. I HAVE FURY!!!!!!

Worst New Character of 2003

Marche.

[Lezta]

Sigh, Raz... this isn't new we do it every year! :)

Best Graphics: Soul Calibur 2

Best Sound: Soul Calibur 2 (that background music is.... pretty)

Best Multiplayer: Mario Kart: Double Dash!!
