No, you said random figures on the internet meant nothing when I talked about it's popularity. I'm saying that this much critical acclaim shows that the game may not be the best of the generaction by default but it's PRETTY DAMN GOOD. Also slow year in gaming? Just because the Gamecube didn't have a super huge amount doesn't change what it was competing against which was Max Payne 2, Socom 2, Jak 2, Prince of Persia, Call of Duty, Knights of the Old Republic. Also remember it got the award for being most influential out of the entire generation so far. Really just cause you don't like a game doesn't mean you have to claim it sucks and ignore the dues it got. Edit: That's a dumb thing to say. "It's not that the game is a great game and it just didn't fit my tastes, oh no, all the positive reviews of it were actually bad and it really just sucked" Though most would still disagree. Seriously just because you don't like a game doesn't mean it sucks, I don't like Battlefield much doesn't mean I can't see it's a good game. |

Ok, I'm gonna need a citation for that last one. Who exactly gave that particular award and I'd love to hear their reasons(influence I can see, the art style was a change of pace). Edit: Its flawed. Its not perfect, and its not the best either. Its subject to criticism. |

Game Informer, December 2003. I can't recall an entire thing on it by memory. Seriously, why are you trying to debunk the positive things said about this game? |

So, after playing the Company of Heroes demo, I have to say that it's an awsome, awsome game. Positional damage to tanks, the importance of cover, the ability to build and destroy cover, special abilities like air and artillary strikes, all make for an awsome game. It just needs more Orks. Barring that, it needs the Russians, who I hope will be in the expansion. |

One of those pictures of an anime/comic/TV character going "Oh Shit! Internet Fight!" Seriously, I wanted to look at those. I also wanted to look at the "You fail it" pictures. ... ...I couldn't find any. I guess you can't google images of those... |

Alpha, I could be wrong, but I think your thinking of Ocarina. Ocarina got it for being the first 3d adventure game, great camera controls, and several other innovations, like lock on and autojump. The game was a pioneer, and it totally deserved the award. I don't know about any awards for Wind Waker on those grounds though. |

I'm pretty sure, Ocarina of time wouldn't win an award that was in 2003-2004, about the current generation. Again, why are you arguing the accomplishments and trying to make it sound like they never happened? |

I'll be the last person to say that I *enjoyed* Windwaker (seriously, it's one of the, like, four games that I got so bored with I could never finish it.) but... That doesn't mean other people don't enjoy it. Just because you don't like a game, JP, doesn't automatically make it a *bad* game... |

Because I'm not taking your word for it? I think thats a good reason. Nothing wrong with calling evidence into question. Oh wait, it might be part of a plot! A plot to ruin your credibility! edit: Yes and no. It was a fine product. I'm less agreeable about the parts that I feel are the real qualifiers as to what makes a good game, but thats for another time. And I said its flawed. Imperfect. I've yet to say its bad(although I damn well think it, but thats not important). Thats the second time you guys have put those same words in my mouth. I'm done here. |

Gameranking score of 95 GOTY Zelda. Edit: You said the game did only one thing right, that's pretty much saying it's bad. |

ANYWAYS. I hope Twilight Princess doesn't have an entirely nerfed up battle system. Especially with the trouble I'm hearing about the Wii control changes. edit: and just to be clear, no more reviews. All I wanted was the award for most innovative. |
