Dunno if anyone's done it all ready, but here's how it goes:
- 1 VOTE EACH
- ONLY GAMES RELEASED IN 2004 CAN BE CONSIDERED
- VOTES IN BOLD
And of course feel free to add why you support game or destroy someone else's suggestion.
:)
I'll keep a tally going. I start this now, because the year is drawing to a close and looking back, this year's been better than usual for decent games.
The categories are:
- SPORTS
- SHOOT 'EM UP
- RPG
- RACING
- PLATFORMER
- FOREIGN
and of course the golden coverted:
- OVERALL
Note:
GTA: SA amongst other games may not fit into a category. It will later be considered for the OVERALL best game though.
Anywhere you want to put it.

By who?
Whoever they are, they're wrong.
Well, I suppose there are similarities in that you can power-up your armour and weapons; it has RPG style aspects, but that's about it. It's far too fast, frantic and FUN to be an RPG. Primarily, it's definitely a platform game.
> You would prefer it be called...?
Well, I've seen it referred to as a 3D platformer, a 3D platform blaster, and just straight platform. It certainly has much more in common with Tomb Raider than Final Fantasy.
So yes, I'd say 'platformer'...
...as do Sony ( [URL]http://www.scee.com/software/ps2games.jhtml?localeTitleId=1054756[/URL] - "3D Action Adventure") and most importantly, the developers Insomniac ( [URL]http://www.insomniacgames.com/games/rc3.php[/URL] - "Action platform genre").
But hey, this is your poll! Call it an RPG if you wish! :-)
Jees, it was only a poor joke to make up for my typo.

I accidentally put it in there cos I wasn't looking at the category correctly ("platformer" was one down). I then made a crap excuse.
GET OFF MY BACK!
