![]() Due to the failure of the previous contest, I've been thinking of a simple yet fun contest we could do where everyone on the site could participate. After reading January's Nintendo Power, I got the perfect idea. Let's hold the first NA Awards 2011 contest. The rules will be simple and once we get things underway you may actually learn a thing or two about another member's personal favorite game. This is also a great chance to discuss that game amongst everyone, and there's no time limit so members can get to the topics when they have the chance. Rules: -Try to nominate new games only from this generation (PC, 360, Wii, PS3, DS, PSP) -Can Nominate as many games as you want. -Can Nominate the same game as much as you want. Prizes: -Best Game will be featured in it’s own banner/theme for the site. If anyone has any better Rules/Prizes idea please share! Anything to make it more enjoyable. Here are the categories. Categories___________________________________________________ Best Game (Game of the Generation) Best Downloadable Game Best Graphics Best Music (Best Original Score) Best Adventure Game Best Voice Acting / Sound Effects Best Shooter Best Music / Rhythm Game Best RPG Best Strategy Game Best Sports Game Best Action Game Best Platformer Best Puzzle Game Best Multiplayer Game Best New Character Best Story Best New Idea Best Retro Revival Best Indie Game Nominations__________________________________________________ Last Updated: 3/31/11 Best Game (Game of the Generation) - Fallout: New Vegas - Final Fantasy XIII - Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep - Final Fantasy Dissidia - The Legend of Zelda Spirit Tracks - StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty - Starcraft: Brood War - Team Fortress 2 Best Downloadable Game ☆WINNER☆ - Mega Man 9 & 10 - - - - - - - Best Graphics ☆WINNER☆ - Crysis - - - - Best Music (Best Original Score) ☆WINNER☆ - Super Mario Galaxy 2 - - - - - - Best Adventure Game ☆WINNER☆ - The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess - - - - Best Voice Acting / Sound Effects ☆WINNER☆ - Final Fantasy Dissidia - - - - - Best Shooter ☆WINNER☆ - Counter-Strike: Source - - - - - - Best Music / Rhythm Game - Chime - AudioSurf - Guitar Hero Best RPG Game ☆WINNER☆ - Final Fantasy XIII - - - - - - - - Best Strategy Game ☆WINNER☆ - StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty - - - Best Sports Game - Gran Turismo 5 - Mario Kart Wii - Mario Sports Mix Best Action Game - Monster Hunter Portable 3rd - Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep - Mass Effect 2 - Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast Best Platformer ☆WINNER☆ - Super Mario Galaxy 2 - - - - - Best Puzzle Game - Braid - 999: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors - Puzzle Quest Best Multiplayer Game - Monster Hunter Portable 3rd - Starcraft II - Uncharted 2: Among Thieves - Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep - Final Fantasy Dissidia - Super Smash Brothers Brawl - Mario Kart Wii - Spiral Knights - Team Fortress 2 Best New Character - Dr. Fetus (Super Meat Boy) - Benny (Fallout: New Vegas) - Aqua (Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep) - Ventus (Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep) - Cosmos (Final Fantasy Dissidia) - Lightning (Final Fantasy XIII) - Jiro (Blue Dragon) Best Story - Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey - Amnesia: The Dark Descent - Fallout: New Vegas - Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep - Kingdom Hearts Re: coded - Blue Dragon - Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride Best New Idea - Amnesia: The Dark Descent - 3D Dot Game Heroes - Scribblenauts - Demon's Souls Best Retro Revival - Final Fantasy The Four Heroes of Light - Mega Man 9 - Mega Man 10 - New Super Mario Brothers Wii - Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride - Donkey Kong Country Returns Any additional categories would be great, but let's not go overboard.

Thanks Zidane! I'll add your nominations Storm and we'll get the contest underway. Thanks to everyone for nominating! When we start the voting, I'll do 2 or 3 at a time and keep the poll running for a couple of days so everyone has a chance to participate. Also, I'll post the winners in this thread (first post) so check to see some results once we get rolling. Edited by andaryu, Feb 10 2011, 06:19 PM.

Let the NA Awards 2011 begin! Let me know how you guys like the format I used for the voting. I'm going to start the contest with just one poll to see how it goes at first and be sure to check back here for the results if your interested in who won. |

Side note: Maybe it's just me, but we should archive the old Contest stuff. I think we should do that with every finished contest so that people don't get confused as to which is going on and post in dead areas. |

Here's another idea, about the contest itself, but it might be late for this: Instead of actual nominations in the Game of the Generation section, we should just use the winners of each section. Just a thought but how could a game possibly be better than everything else without winning at least one of the other awards? |

Actually, I would have taken care of that already if I had the powers to do so. EDIT: As for your idea Polan. We could do something similar. Like after all the voting is over, we could do a 'Top Rated Game' poll where you can only vote for the winners of the categories. Edited by andaryu, Feb 16 2011, 10:20 PM.

Enrei suggested Best Indie Game so I'll add it to the list. We need nominations for it though, at least 3 to go through with it. I nominate Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World The Game cause its the only Indie game I've played. (I believe) |

What's an Indie game? I'm not sure if I've even played any. |

An Indie game is any game made by an unknown developer. Check out Steam, there's a whole Indie section. If it's from some random company you've never heard about, and it's on the PC or is DLC on a console, chances are it's an Indie game. I think the actual definition is like a company that makes less than X amount a year...but I don't remember. Edited by Polantaris, Feb 19 2011, 06:34 PM.

God damn it...I typed out my list and it got deleted @.@ Most indie games lately have been extremely proud of being Indie, so it's easy to tell... My list: Cave Story(luckiest Japanese basement dweller, ever!) VVVVVV Super Meat Boy Amnesia: The Dark Descent Monday Night Combat Dwarf Fortress Minecraft Edited by Enrei, Feb 19 2011, 09:17 PM.
